Short wet grass does not burn.
Lytton did not have to burn.
Taxpayers ARE NOT responsible for those losses.

We used to burn our fields every year in the spring, later then this as it is too wet right now,,,burn off the yellow dry and the carbon and minerals in the soil enriched the field. Lush green grass would soon be there for the livestock.
