Introduction

Planting and seeding marks the beginning stage of forest regeneration and plays a vital role in the sustainability of the forestry and timber industry. As an industry leader in sustainable forest management, Quadco provides your operation with tools and techniques for the entire forestry life cycle, including planting and seeding. Explore how our innovative solutions ensure high-yield reforestation, solidifying our commitment to a sustainable future for forests and timber operations worldwide.

Laying the Foundation for Regrowth with Site Prep and Planting

Effective planting site preparation is the foundation of successful replanting. Bracke’s site preparation tools make the process safer and more productive than traditional manual methods. You can reduce some of the risks associated with manual site prep by mechanizing the site preparation process to reduce overall costs and accelerate the forestry life cycle. Once the land is prepped, the planting phase of the cycle begins. Tools like Bracke seeders and planters use precision and efficiency for better seed distribution than traditional manual planting. The combination of mechanized site prep and planting ensures that new generations of trees grow faster, with improved survival rates and healthier growth trajectories. Maximize Forest Volume with Bracke Planting Equipment Quadco is proud to be North America’s distributor of Bracke Forest– the standard for safe, effective, and high-yield forest planting. The Bracke P11.b, P12.b, P22.b, and S35.a are all engineered to maximize your operation’s planting efficiency and reduce painstaking manual labor. These innovative planting attachments offer:

• Improved worker safety by reducing manual involvement in potentially hazardous conditions
