🔥FIRE IT UP!🔥 Drone Video of Controlled Burn in Kansas Pasture

Ойын-сауық

Video of controlled, prescribed burn in central Kansas! Fire has always been a natural part of life for native woodlands, wetlands, and prairies. Ecosystems native to the Midwest depend on periodic fire events to rejuvenate growth and ensure long-term survival. The human nature tendency to suppress fire allows invasive plants (weeds) to out-compete our native grasses and flowers, therefore reducing plant and animal diversity. Controlled burns allow pastures to flourish!

    Awesome 👍 Lived in Colorado and the farmers all did controlled burns. They also burned their grass around their house during the winter when it was dormant. They had the best lawns. Keep sharing your life, a lot of people have no idea what a great life it is living in rural America 👌

    I've done several prescribed burns professionally. A few things are immediately apparent: A: You have lots of people, proper equipment, and a well laid out plan with wind/backburns/buffer. B: You regularly burn huge tracts that dwarf anything in size that I've ever done. The prairie grasses and ecosystem that rely on them DO need regular burns as has been researched and proven time and time again on the nearby Konza Prairie!

    In 1979 I took my mother over to East Anglia in the UK in late September and many of the farmers were doing exactly what you show here in this video. Awe-some in the original sense of the word. We'd drive for miles through the smoke and haze. Surreal and sublime.

    How do you guys keep doing it? Each of your videos eclipses the last one. Quality education and entertainment. Portraying farming as a lifestyle versus a job must make some folks heads explode. Wait a second, my bi-weekly check is a little short. No overtime for over 40? No shift differential? My grandparents (born between 1880 and 1891) all farmed and I recall many of their and my parents tales. My dad joked that he looked forward to church on Sunday mainly because it was the only time he got to sit down and relax for a couple of hours. I do wonder about the relevance of controlled burning given today's technology (yes, I'm talking those evil chemicals). I fully understand that prairie fires are totally Kansas, and have happened nearly annually for many millennia. And I saw Yellowstone both before and a few years after a major fire, and noted the fire had done a lot of good. My question is whether controlled burning of a pasture really kills weeds? You're not burning the root system (which can cover acres in the case of some weeds), so don't they all just pop back up the next year? Are you actually doing more than reducing the spread? Anyway, make good life choices, keep the farm together, and keep these videos coming.

    We do graze cattle there! Within a few weeks after the old grass has burned off (the cattle don't eat the old grass well at all anyway), the new grass comes in and the cattle thrive on it. Burning is better for the cattle, the grass, the flowers, and the wildlife. Only thing it's not good for is the weeds! (which is good)
