Pigs not only will clear the top growth, they will dig all the roots out and eat them too. Brambles are a favourate. They will turn over all the earth and the trick is to get them out at the turned stage and not the bog stage.
As long as they are well fenced, and have enough to eat, they are quiet, and outdoor pigs dont smell. At least I never smelt them...:rolleyes:
And they have the advantage of making you laugh as they clear the ground.
