This is one of about 500 "Bildunterschriften" I have to translate, and this is all the context I have. The photo that goes with it doesn't help at all. Forestry equipment is not my line of business, so I'm really grateful for any help.

Eureka, Ulrike! Kim's link was the inspiration: add '-ry' and Google gives forth its bounty: 'forestry mulcher'.

I wouldn't go for 'stump grinder' unless the stumps were really *big" http://www.fae.com.au/stump_grinders.htm
Peer comment(s):

neutral BrigitteHilgner : I have my doubts about this: There are "Forst Mulcher" and they are frequently combined with a "Forstfräse", but they are not the same as a Forstfräse. // To be honest, I don't know. I am interested, so I am still trying to find out. I have my doubts.

So what's your opinion on 'hoes' and 'grinders', Brigitte (spontaneous or otherwise)?

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "It seems that Forstfräsen and Forstmulcher (or Mulchfräsen) are similar types of equipment (mostly tractor-towed) and sometimes even combined into one unit. You put me on the right track, Andrew. Thanks a lot. Thanks to all for your help."

forest rotary hoe

"Rotary hoe" is in a number of dictionaries for "fräse", and forest rotary hoe actually gets some Google hits.

stump grinder

Rodungsfräse is another term for Forstfräse. The whole idea is removing stumps of trees, including their roots.

Hier sehen Sie unsere Rodungsfräse zur Beseitigung
von Bäumen und Aufwuchs (Schonungen, überständige Baumschulflächen und Obstplantagen).
Im Gegensatz zu den klassischen Forstmulchern beseitigt diese Fräse nicht nur den oberirdischen Bewuchs, sondern frisst sich sogar durch das komplette Wurzelwerk bis in eine Tiefe von ca. 30 cm!
