I am someone who mounded in forestries going back years since track excavators were first used. Ploughs were used before that and there was a lot of hand work before that as well. We mounded places, only for them having been properly drained, that were quite useless for any other product. Is it correct that timber grown off that land, once it is grown properly, is as useful as timber grown on good, green ground?
