@Prince Harambe Burning controls weeds and pests, and improves yields in the season after burning. On the other hand, the agricultural researcher says that, over the long-term, burning destroys the soil. It causes increased soil erosion; it kills beneficial soil organisms, and eventually causes lower yields. - - aight maybe doesnt worse the yeild next year but overtime its not good.
@Prince Harambe i agree with you, why else would soooo many farmers in africa/ south america burn down forest to make place for farmland. Instead of selling the wood they burn it to make the harvest much better!
most of what was burning was just hay & mulch from the combine harvester, the main crop was already harvested, otherwise this would have been a roaring inferno also burning doesn't kill bacteria in the soil unless the heat was enough to glass the soil, plowing the land and folding over the deep loam soil should renew the damage on the surface, as bad as this fire was its quite normal to see farms burn their fields especially sugarcane harvesters, you will often see fields of sugarcane burned just before harvesting to increase their yield and remove unwanted material from the crop.
But his 3 furrows would be more effective than that chisel plow in such dry soil you can hardly tell where the chisel plows been. I’ve worked in dry soil like that, notice that 3 furrow plow basically kept the front of that tractor up? Hard like highway.
Oh boy yep that’s some dry ground. When you can hardly tell the difference between chisel plowed and stubble that’s dry soil. The plow was the right call, 3 furrows and the front end I’d barely touching ground
Work so hard to see it all up in flames. Turn that deer lose to help save that crop! We on our farm have been very lucky to never have a fire go through our crops. My heart goes out to the one's that have had this misfortune happen to them.
I come from a time when stubble was deliberately burnt off, ………….fertilising the soil, and of course killing off weeds and no end of bad creepy crawlies.
If you go to South East Asia for your winter holidays, you'll be able to luxuriate in the bliss of reminiscing about such ancient habits. The resulting air pollution of PM 2.5 exceed comfort levels for months at a time . . . enjoy yourself!
It wasn’t that long ago stubble was burned on purpose or even straw that wasn’t going to be baled. Often in Southwest England if the wind swung to the east in burning season the sun would turn red as farmers burned their fields after harvest.
