EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this sizzling snapshot captured by Don Hadden, we witness the fiery spectacle of sugarcane burning in Kununurra, Western Australia. These daring farmers have a unique way of prepping their crop for processing – they set it ablaze! But fear not, dear viewers, for this controlled burn serves a purpose beyond just creating an impressive pyrotechnic display. By removing dry leaves through this scorching technique, these clever cultivators make handling the canes much easier. It's like giving them a stylish haircut before hitting the runway! This agricultural practice takes place within the picturesque landscape of the Ord River Irrigation Scheme, where farmland stretches as far as the eye can see. As wisps of smoke dance above the scorched earth and flames flicker with intensity, one cannot help but marvel at nature's resilience. Amidst all that heat and smoke lies a testament to human ingenuity and our harmonious relationship with Mother Earth. So next time you enjoy your favorite sweet treat or sip on some refreshing sugar cane juice, take a moment to appreciate the hard work and creativity behind its cultivation. And remember - sometimes even plants need a little spark to reach their full potential!
