Most of our firebreaks that surround a clear-cut disk up fine. We like to divide our clear-cuts and alternate which half we burn so we don't remove all the cover at ones. So, we have breaks running through the middle of our clearcuts.
I find these middle breaks somewhat problematic. They want to grow broomsedge like the rest of the clear-cut. Even after mowing and disking broomsedge, there is still enough debris on the break that it would be fairly easy for fire to jump it.
Any thoughts as to the best way to keep these breaks broomsedge free?
