well it looks like crap leaving dead trees all over. I have a 30 acre hill. I am going to try to make swales on the hill side to catch the water I like the idea of planting native grasses though.

What an idiot, working against nature instead of working with

If you do a conservation easement, always be sure to reserve the natural asset credit that the land trusts won't tell you about. You don't want your natural asset credit to be sold to a foreign sovereign wealth fund like China that can come back and require extra requirements to make the credit qualify as a credit on the Chicago Commodities Exchange. Also, the IRS is known to come back and revalue the land at a lower price and require back taxes and penalties to be paid. Beware that American law recognizes that perpetuities are against the wealth of the country and against public policy. Given that there are no written records preceding American development, there is no way to claim some certain vegetation existed then or how long prior to the existence of written records. Cedar makes good fence posts.

I'm in the process of replanting 31000 cedars in order to replenish the land that was stripped by idiots.. .

Unleash the goats!!

Humans did not exist yesterday and they won't exist tomorrow ever again and planet Earth with its life forms will resume.. .

I use to have a big pickerly pear cactus . Her name was Satina Picky Picky, as a house plant for many years and won two ribbons at the county fair as she was huge even one year stuck a skeleton in her she has 1inch thorns . Sadly had to rehome her cause I had small siblings at the time. I miss her and may end up buying a couple pads online and trying and regrow one .

Being of Mexican descent, I'm trying to gather more information on properly harvesting and selling prickly pear for human consumption. I make salads, agua frescas, add it to tacos…I’ve even tried it at a couple bars as a mezcal flavor, which is refreshing :) I would love any resources on how to go about getting more educated on this because I have a lot on my property. Everyone keeps telling me to get rid of it, but I feel an attachment to the plant and want to do it justice. I might be weird but something is telling me to take care of it. I get as farmers it can be tackling task but idk… enough on my TED TALK😊

I wish my land was "infested" with these plants. They yield copius amounts of delicious fruit! I say if you can't eat it, then it's a weed.....

I'll do what I want on my land. You ingest your herbicides. Fools

It's a big dream of mine to have a hill country live water ranch. Maybe out of reach at this point but I have some vacation rentals in the hill country that I may some day liquidate and put into one property for my family. I almost pulled the trigger last summer on 125 acres in Hunt, near some of my rentals but wanted more elevation changes and it wasn't live water.

9:10 Can natural predators of deer be reintroduced?

Is there anyone close to east texas that would let me come out and harvest some prickly pear? I need lots to make a cactus fence for livestock.

Or you could simply leave them alone. Dozens of critters depend on those for food, juices and shelter.

I like the rock rake.

Always heard cedars suck up water depleting water supply, stunt or choke out live oaks and make great wildfire potential . The single trunk tree can be trimmed up to make nice shade trees but the big round bushy kind are a nuisance. Don’t mulch em if you want grass growing to replace the tree.

I do all these. Thanks

If you're an opuntia lover, watching this video will give you a heart attack 😅

Raised on the Lampasas County line off CR3300, falling into a prickly pear is forever burnt in my memories 😂

Cactoblastis is on its way. It worked well in Australia

I'm a town girl with country roots. No ag degree needed to understand this great video and the value of education, sweat and love being used to prepare our beloved state for the future.

I see a lot of people commenting here about the wasting of prickly pear while trying to eradicate it from large pastures and lands. I don't think you guys and gals realize the amounts of prickly pear some of us are dealing with. Far too much to try and find other uses for it. To do anything with it one has to somehow remove the thorns, the most efficient method that I know of for thorn removal is burning. It can get very expensive, (propane, lots of it) and extremely time consuming. In other words,for the money and labor invested, it just isn't even close to being worth it.

Juniper has been a great thing for me for over thirty years. If you know how to use it, you'll be grateful for the juniper. Cut all the bottom branches and use them to heat your home or cook at your BBQ. The flavor is wonderful.

our ag program are way to focus on killing instead of land management meaning making money / stewarding land. You can flame those pears during the wet season and use them as extremely high quailty feed when goats, and cows are taught to eat it after it's been fired. Don't waste good feed people that is drought bullet proof in prone drought areas.

I watch these videos just so I can go to the hill country every now and then.

U can eat prickly pears geez don't need no chemicals or poisons

Thank you so much for this video. I would encourage everyone I know to watch it and learn from it. What is the name of the tree in the cage at around 7 minutes 34 seconds? Do you have a scientific name? Thank you so much again for this video.

A little disappointed it wasn't mentioned that prickly pear (nopal) is a common food in Hispanic culture. Might as well make some good use of the cactus instead of just killing it.

damnit i dont wanna kill pasture, i want to just find a way to mechanically remove and compost a shit ton of prickly pear.

Great video thank you. I have a question recently moved out to a ranch in New Braunfels in cactus has taken over was thinking about using a bucket loader to clear the land then use pasture guard would you recommend that if I wanted to keep it from coming back planning on keeping some cactus in some of the other pastures? Would like to get some cattle relatively soon so don't want to have to wait a year that's the reason I wanted to use a tractor.

Thank you, for destroying an edible plant for humans and animals and at the same time poison our planet, for your selfish gains

Thank you for this excellent video I wish Billionaires would fund work like this, not missions to Mars to just recreate the same systems on another planet at infinitely more cost

If you have a pond, expect it to go dry if you remove the prickly pear

Healthy riparian zones are essential to a resilient environment. I've noticed one in particular over the years next to a highway interchange built in the late 1960s south of my hometown of Chico, California. This area always caught my eye when travelling on the highway and road next to it for its striking foliage. The trees and bushes there are beautiful. Similarly, of course, the creeks through the town of Chico itself have riparian areas of their own, one of which being the phenomenal Bidwell Park. Another area is the Butte Creek Canyon, which was mined in probably the early half of the last century, where tailings were deposited in a north to south back and forth pattern. Those tailings these days are a relatively healthy habitat covered in good vegetation next to the creek. I hope to learn more about my area's particular riparian zones and how we can help cultivate their success.

I hate this. Prickly pear is a native plant. Cacti store water through drought. Wildlife depend on the prickly pear. Removing native species on a large scale will have negative consequences on the land. Instead of removing the plants completely, plant the pads in more preferable locations. Let the native populations continue to live on the land like the landowners do.

I have lots of it on my property in Medina country, anyone know where I can find someone licensed to spray MezaVue? It kills this stuff in weeks, but you have to be licensed to spray it.

Which ones have edible pads? Can they be cooked to make the spines fall out and then feed them to chickens and pigs?

thank you for this video, has given me some things to think about.

❤️

You can also eliminate them by mowing. I have gotten rid of patches of them by using a skid steer and hydraulic mower after stacking with a rake.

Excellent video. Thank you.

Thanks for your great work.

Where do I find a schedule of your upcoming field days?

There’s is nowhere on this earth that is as beautiful as the hill country, to me. That is heaven on earth.

My dad was born and raised in Lampasas county and we live in Florida. I absolutely love that part of Texas. I subscribed to this channel just to get a peak at God’s country every now and then. Thank you.

How do we know if we are a live water riparian land area?

How come the Texas Hill Country can grow anything let alone high Oak Trees. There is absoluty no soil, Only a huge mass of sandstone. I would appreciate any info. Thanks

fucking NEVER use herbicides. wtf is wrong with y'all?
