What I don't get is why he is plowing? I've seen a lot of burned off fields. Labor day weekend all of western Canada is ablaze burning off the wheat fields for miles and miles. Unlike a brush fire it doesn't linger, it sweeps across a field leaving charred stubble with the root structure intact. I can't see the wind moving much of that. So the only reason to plow would be to plant new and I don't think this is the right time of year for that. The article doesn't mention planting either.

OK, proof positive. This is the wind whipping up a dust storm on the property of a neighbor who did nothing after the fire.
