Soil Preparation

Creating a healthy seedbed is critical for long-term vegetation success. CDI uses industry-proven methods to ensure soil is ready for planting:

• Ripping & chisel plowing to loosen compacted ground and improve root penetration
• Topsoil spreading to reintroduce vital nutrients and organic matter
• Pocking (small depressions) to reduce water runoff and increase moisture retention

Soil Amendment Application

We tailor soil amendments to address site-specific conditions and enhance fertility:

• Mechanical application for broad, consistent incorporation
• Hydraulic application ideal for sensitive, sloped, or hard-to-reach terrain

Seeding Services

Our team can meet any seeding challenge, from native grass restoration to aesthetic wildflower mixes:

• Hydraulic seeding (hydroseeding) for erosion-prone or irregular surfaces
• Drill seeding for accurate placement and deep soil contact
• Broadcast seeding for large, open-area coverage
• Wildflower and specialty seeding for pollinator habitats and visual appeal

Mulching

Mulch protects young plants, reduces erosion, and conserves moisture:

• Straw mulch applied evenly for erosion control and water retention
• Hay mulch for agricultural or rangeland projects

Additional Site Services

We offer a full suite of supporting services to ensure compliance and success:

• Tackifiers to bind mulch and minimize soil loss
• Dust control to reduce airborne particles on disturbed sites
• Field mowing for vegetation management
• Wetland restoration for ecological balance and permit compliance
