Most of our projects are relatively linear. They start at one point, end at another, and we can feel them begin to fold in on themselves as the work tightens up toward completion. This was not that project. It was fragmented and a bit disjointed. It doesn't photograph cleanly, doesn't have a clear focal point to share with you, but made a tremendous overall improvement to the property in its own way.
This project started with "we need to drill a water well here but the drillers can't get their trucks through" and ended with a lot of "while you're here...." And let's be honest, after 17 years of this I've learned the best compliment I can get is a conversation that includes the phrase "while you're here" because it means you like what you're seeing enough to trust us with more.
Somewhere in the middle ground of this project, we dug a slurry pit for the drillers so they don't have to drag in their backhoe, built two 24 ft gate entrances (with a new driveway for one of them), tore out ¾ mile of old fence, cleaned up the main watering point, installed a new 13ft tire tank, and removed a no longer relevant cattle guard plus reworked the grade at that gate.
As I mentioned, it's not linear, doesn't fold in to a single point of completion, and certainly is harder to explain. But it made a world of difference for this property.
I want to thank S & S Fence for building these 24 ft gates for the project. I know everybody likes chasing double gates in our Kansas wind but I think these single 24's turned out pretty decent. We've installed several S&S gates over the last year or so and, in my opinion, you won't find any that swing smoother or show out nicer.
Give us a call at 785-770-0479 if you have a variety of random improvements you'd like completed on your property. If you'd like gates like this, we'd be happy to install them for you.

We installed this 13 ft tire tank somewhere around 2014 after Karst Water Well Drilling & Service punched a 327 foot deep well. They installed the 100 watt panels in the background of the first photos (top of the line at the time) which powered a 11sqf-2 pump set at about 265 feet deep.
Recently, that original 11sqf-2 let out it's magic smoke and we were asked to do a re-fit on everything but the tank. Triple 385 watt panels now power a fresh 11sqf-2 pump and keep the tank topped up. The pressure from the cattle had taken its toll over the years on the panel surround so we built in a new pipe and continuous fence surround with an 8ft swing gate to allow easy service access.
We thought this well freshened up pretty nicely. If you'd like to discuss updating your water systems, give us a call at 785-770-0479.

We recently completed a facilities expansion for B&D Herefords and Angus near Odin, KS. We completed three new water line tie-ins, laid down a bit over 800 feet of water line, cleared out trees and overgrowth, built about 1600 feet of new pipe and sucker rod fence, installed a half dozen new gates with overheads, did a bit of grade work to form out & pour new slabs to install three new automatic waters, along with a handful of various smaller improvements. The new pen structure and water ties in an existing line of Blattner Feedlot Construction & Livestock Equipment continuous slip form bunks to the main pens.
Although the August heat tried to cook us, we enjoyed the time we spent with the Beran family and the opportunity to bring this facility expansion into service.
Their 'Fall Classic' production sale is coming up November 17th at this location a mile east of Odin if you'd like to see some of their cattle and a bit of our work in person. And as always, if you'd like to discuss facilities upgrades for your operation we'd love to hear from you. You can reach us at 785-770-0479

We recently completed a relatively involved CRP management project. The property was flagged for invasive species encroachment creating a compliance issue. We primarily used our Diamond brand disc mulcher but also involved our hydraulic saw and grapple to handle some mixed invasive deciduous trees.
The interesting part - to me at least - is how aggressively the cedars were repopulating. The landowner told me they had the cedars removed a few years ago. Opening that canopy allowed the seeds to germinate and vigorously establish themselves. On the west side of the drainage (~13 acres) I removed 592 cedars. Yes, I counted 😁. Of those 592, I don't think more than maybe 10 were more than 24 inches tall so they hid very nicely in the tall CRP grass. I'm sure I missed some but this is why it seems like cedars spring up practically overnight. They are all there but just hiding in the grass. For the first three years they'll grow 6"-12" per year. Beyond that, they'll shoot up 12"-24" per year depending on moisture. Hopefully we've reset the clock for this property. Moving forward, the plan for this property is ongoing chemical maintenance of the thickets and mechanical removal of the cedars if needed.
I hope you enjoy the photos and videos. Special thanks to my son Landyn for his cameo appearance in the first picture to provide some scale to the size of the thickets. If your CRP requires some maintenance or you'd like to reclaim your pasture acres lost to invasive trees, give us a call at 785-770-0479 to discuss options!
