The Kioti's front bucket does the heavy lifting, pulling a stump, regrading the creek bed, and trying to redirect flow, while the narrator explains his erosion logic on the fly. No specs or loader numbers; the value is watching improvised, low-budget creek management on rough rural terrain. Best for owners curious how a compact tractor handles unplanned waterway work.
An owner-operator channel run by a family on a small West Virginia homestead, so the perspective is practical and personal rather than promotional.
The narrator used the Kioti's bucket to pull a stump and regrade the creek bed, though he notes a backhoe would work much better for this kind of job.
He rerouted the creek with the tractor bucket, placed rocks and debris to form an eddy, and let silt and sand collect there to build a sandbar.
After five days and several rainstorms, the water broke differently and did not undercut the bank, with silt starting to deposit in the eddy as planned.
