I have a three acre plot where I removed all of the 40 year old planted pines and another 2 acre plot where I removed about 75% of the 40 year old planted pines. I am wanting to remove the stumps in the fields so I can plant them. What is the best way to do this. Track Hoe is one option and a Stumpex Stump grinder is another. Track Hoe would also involve removing the stumps to a place they can be burned. Whichever I choose, the areas will be smoothed and then have a heavy plow pulled across until there is a decently smooth seedbed.

Anybody with pros/cons of either method? Is there another option I should consider?
