Brush Hogging & Field Mowing in Kingsville, MO

Pasture reclamation, fence-row clearing, and field mowing for farm ground in Kingsville and western Johnson County.

Kingsville is farm country. Most of the calls we get out here aren’t overgrown subdivision lots — they’re pastures that haven’t been cut in a few years, fence rows grown up in hedge and honeysuckle, field edges creeping in ten feet a season, and long gravel drives with the ditches full of brush. Solid Ground Land and Excavation Services runs a Takeuchi track loader with an 84-inch high-flow brush cutter that handles that kind of growth at about 4–5 acres a day. We’re based in Grain Valley, about 25 minutes up 50 Highway.

Recent Job: Reclaiming a 4-Acre Horse Pasture in Kingsville

Track loader with 84-inch brush hog mowing five-foot-tall brush to reclaim a horse pasture in Kingsville, MO
Mid-job on the Kingsville pasture: mowed ground on the left, five feet of brush still standing on the right. Same field, same afternoon.

This was a four-acre horse pasture that had gone a few seasons without a cut, and the brush had gotten to about five feet — too tall and too woody for a tractor mower, not yet trees. The owner wanted it back to grass the horses could use. We ran the 84-inch cutter across the whole four acres and knocked it down to ground level in a day. From here it’s a once-a-year mow to keep it that way, which the owner can do with a tractor or we can come back and do.

That’s the typical Kingsville job: the first pass is the hard one, and that’s the pass we do.

Field Mowing and Pasture Reclamation

If a field hasn’t been cut in a while, the growth is past what a finish mower or a light rotary cutter will take. The high-flow skid steer cutter goes through tall grass, weeds, briars, and woody brush up to about 6 inches, and the tracks handle soft ground and slopes a tractor would rather not. Once it’s knocked back down to something maintainable, you keep it yourself or have us back once a year. We also cut waterways, terrace edges, and the strips along timber that a batwing won’t reach.

Fence Rows, Right-of-Way and Powerline Clearing

Fence rows and utility easements are the other regular call in Johnson County. The open-front cutter runs within a foot or so of a fence without tearing it up, and it reopens powerline corridors and property-line rows that have grown shut. Anything bigger than about 6 inches along a line is a forestry mulching job, and we bring that machine instead — we do both, so you get one straight answer about which your property needs.

Brush Hogging FAQs for Kingsville

Can you mow a hay field or pasture that’s gone to brush?

Yes — that’s the most common Kingsville call. We knock it down to ground level; you decide whether it goes back to hay, stays pasture, or gets planted.

Will the brush hog tear up my fence?

No. The open-front cutter runs within a foot or so of a fence line without contact, and we slow down at corners, gates, and posts.
