~STUBBLE FIRE~ [Catch All]
Uploaded: July 15, 2008 05:13:42
HAVE A TERRIFIC TUESDAY!!!!!
Alot of farmers will burn off
wheat stubble after harvesting
the wheat in order
to plant another summer growing
crop such as soybeans, which is a
great crop rotation plan.
That is what we are doing here
on our two irrigated circles....
that is my father-in-law in the tractor
disking beside the fire so it
won't spread where it shouldn't.....
28mm ~ F/8 ~ 1/640sec. ~ ISO-160

Thanks so much everyone!!
Your thoughts and comments are so appreciated!!!!
Nikki...in answer to you question....if the stubble wasn't burned off...it would require the tractor and disk to work the ground many times over to get proper planting conditions. Saves money on diesel fuel and the crop gets planted that much quicker. Hope that helped!! :o)
THANKS AGAIN ALL!!!!
ENJOY THE AFTERNOON!!!!
