My friend did that on one of his pastures last year.

That’s not much habitat. Are your neighbors getting in on the same program?

Been about 2 years since we've burned. So much fuel right now it's kinda' scary. It works wonders for habitat restoration.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it.
Don't text and drive.

Would the reason of burning be to destroy introduced plants and seeds? Just a curious town dweller.
Thank You

Lack of knowledge, is burning better than spraying and plowing? Does it kill the vegetation the same way? Our place in jack burned 8 years ago. It was beautiful for a few years.
