[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 413027, member: 539"] Sort of. As opposed to simply setting the field on fire, flaming entails dragging a specialized implement that sits about 1-2"(rough estimate) off the ground behind a tractor that has hoses to dispense a flammable fuel - I'm not sure which one, though - from a tank also mounted on the implement, into nozzles and a pilot light type of ignition source. When the pilot light is enabled, the flamer emits flames from many nozzles spaced about an inch apart straight down onto the ground for about an 8 - 10' width(possibly wider), and burns any and all dry residue - including any loose sand burrs, thus preventing them from germinating and creating new plants.
