Burying a pair of underpants in a field may not seem the obvious starting point for the perfect roast, but farmers are being urged to dig deep for tastier meat.
The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) and Quality Meat Scotland (QMS) claim interring a pair of cotton smalls in a pasture can reveal vital information about soil fertility.
According to the experts, sterile and lifeless soil will keep underwear intact, but organically thriving soil will eat away at the briefs, leaving nothing but the elastic waistband.

Finally we know how the underpants gnomes are going to make a profit.
No we know they don’t wear anything under their kilts.
I remember when I was a kid on the farm. Even months later when you turned a dried cow patty over the bugs, worms, etc were still working under it.
Before Monsanto, I presume...
Silly me, i didn’t know beef would grow in soil.
I’m sorry, but to me this is backwards. You are saying that Western Science relies on authority and convention, rather than observation and reason. I hope that’s not the case, but maybe it is.
I meant to imply that using the scientific method within a laboratory environment seems superior to burying underpants in a field.
But perhaps both methods rely on observation and reason. Still, most good science does not involve underpants.
I'll send you an old pair of mine if you can't find them online.
Your generosity is beyond expectation!
I think this also answers the age old question, ‘where’s the beef?’
In the underwear, of course!
