Prescribed burns are prairie gold...if done safely Prescribed burns are prairie gold...if done safely! 🎵 Heat Waves (tunetank.com)
🔥The careful use of prescribed fire can improve 🔥The careful use of prescribed fire can improve your land's health and protect life and property. This burn in Miami County, Kansas, went off without a hitch with careful planning and many hands on deck from college biology students! According to the Missouri Dept. of Conservation, a wildlife biologist may suggest a prescribed fire to clear overgrown areas and increase plant diversity🌼. Prescribed fires are also a cheaper alternative to herbicides when removing invasive species such as fescue. A prescribed fire could be the right option for your land, but don’t forget to “plan before you light it, so you won't have to fight it.” 🔥 Missouri Dept.
