Where's these 40+ ac tracts of pines located?
I've never seen 40 ac of corn totally uprooted, around here I've seen 1 to 5 ac out of a 100 ac field destroyed.
I lease a 140 ac tract that the land owner had planted in pines last year and foresters told him the hogs rooted up ALL his trees, myself and the landowner walked the tract out could find NO real damage at all from hogs. maybe 15 to 20 trees at most, there were 3 times that many dead because they were a Jrooted.
It looks a lot better if they can blame it on something else so let's blame the hogs...
There's a lot of "TreePlanters" that would love for you to believe that the hogs are the reason that you don't have a good stand after you have payed them big money to plant your property.
