Handling the skid steers can be a bit of a challenge (and fun) and you have more control over where the cut is made. A Skid steer with the RT3000 or CFB-16 – This is similar to using a tractor, the tools simpy cut the trees at the base and you have to manually cut off branches and split the logs later.Notice that in FS17 you can raise and lower the hydraulic hitches, which gives you some control over the cutting point with this tool.


However, you then have to cut off the branches and most likely cut the log into smaller and more manageable pieces with a chainsaw anyhow. A tractor with the TR3200 – This attaches to any tractor and efficiently cuts any tree you bump into.If you like doing it this way, there’s a lot of money to save, but it is quite time-consuming, no matter how good you get at it. A chainsaw – The cheapest equipment and enables you to do all the necessary work manually.Smaller trees give much less profit for about the same amount of work. Such a tree should give you 5k-9k income per tree, dependig on your selling point. If you’re point is to make money, my recommendation is to only cut trees that are thicker than 500cm (the big ones). This might be trees that are just in the way of your farm and fields, or you might go for one of the forest areas. Your first step is obviously to cut some trees.
