Pasture Reclamation in Elgin, TX– 125 Acre Project Overview
This project was part of a government-funded initiative associated with the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA). The goal was to fully clear brush and invasive trees across 125 acres to reclaim pasture land for cattle grazing. In addition to the scale of the job, the project came with a strict completion deadline and detailed clearing requirements that had to be followed throughout the process.
Using a Tigercat M726G forestry mulcher, our crew completed the project in 37 days and transformed heavily overgrown acreage into clean, productive pasture land.

Land Clearing Conditions in Elgin, TX
Properties around Elgin and throughout Bastrop County often contain dense brush, yaupon, mesquite, cedar, and invasive tree growth that can slowly take over usable pasture acreage.
When vegetation is left unmanaged, landowners often experience:
- Reduced grazing area for cattle
- Limited access across the property
- Increased fire risk
- Lower property usability
- More expensive future maintenance
This land clearing in Elgin, TX involved full clearing across 125 acres to restore overgrown land and improve long-term agricultural usability.

This approach is ideal for:
- Pasture reclamation
