Ways to Use a Skid Steer on a Farm

Skid steer loaders have only become more popular since they were developed in the 20th century, because they’re infinitely useful and practical. While you might be accustomed to seeing skid steers used in road and building construction, there’s another place where skid steers are practical: farms. Here are a couple of examples of how you can get lots of use out of your skid steer on your farm.

Clearing Out Vegetation

If your property has a surfeit of brush, branches, and organic matter in the way, you can use your skid steer with an attachment to scoop up and remove all of that dead vegetation so that you have more land to use.

Tilling & Cultivating Soil

Getting ready to plant crops this spring? Your skid steer loader can be used to easily break apart and turn over your soil so that you have fresh, aerated soil that is ready for receiving seeds and seedlings.

Baling Hay

For those who own livestock and need to have a lot of hay on hand, a skid steer can take a lot of the work out of baling and transporting hay around your farm so that you can feed your animals and lay fresh bedding down.
