Small Farm Contracting has an experienced tree planting team available for both small and large areas. The team has extensive experience working with landscape designers and property developers.
We can provide plantation advice on suitable species including indigenous plants and the design and layout considering soil types, topography, aspect and climate.
We ensure that:
- Ground preparation is undertaken and tree plantation lines developed. This includes weed control if required with spot, boom and mini-boom spraying equipment used. Widths of booms range from 1 metre to 8 metres.
- Application of initial boost fertiliser used as part of our expert planting techniques
- Much or weed mats utilised to retain moisture in the soil, suppress weeds, keep the soil cool and general aesthetic appeal. Use of organic mulches also help improve the soil’s fertility as they decompose.
- Various types of tree guards considered and use depending on the topography, aspect and climate of land.
Small Farm Contracting can also assist with both the short and long-term management and maintenance of tree planting to ensure optimal results.
