I have mature trees in some of my pastures. Over half are old oak trees. I think they are the final succession after the Hinckley fire in the 1800s. When I was a kid there were still some huge piney stump remains still out there, but they are gone now.
I am losing a few oak trees every year. Some split in the wind, but others just don't leaf out. Do you see a stocking density impact on oaks? We are grazing over 3X the cows that were here under previous management.
