Everything in this picture was burnt black a month ago, it’s paying dividends now I think.
It’s greening up

Thanks, there is brome, timothy, alfalfa, vetch, quack grass, fescue, and about anything else you can think of. Oh, and dandelions.

Was that an intentional burn Silver. Does all that survive the burn?

Great grass and really nice cattle.

It’s private land I have rented, it has a good grazing permit attached to it so was hard to turn down.

Yes, the burn was intentional. Everything including the hill in the background was burned a few weeks ago. Only some willows and aspen were killed, and the grasses seem to have received a good boost.

This is how it looked the day I burned it.

Glad to see you're as big a believer in man-made climate change as I am. Burn baby burn!

I don't believe that anyone who endures the winters we do would be against a little global warming.

Managed fire should be used a lot more. That looks great.

I don't know how it works but a lot of burning in Northern Australia is supposed to be environment friendly.

I'd watch and stood fire watch.
