A freshly cut alfalfa field or just-tilled soil might cause odors.

Huh? Those are the good smells. Hate to think what they would do if they smelled something really stinky, like a pig barn that hasn't been cleaned in a while. Now that will knock your socks off.

Amen to that. As close to heaven as the human nose can know in life - add a little honeysuckle in the breeze and your there.

I lived in Northern Ireland for three years, in the country, and right across the road, to the west, was a pig farm. I knew that when I bought the place. Never had an odor problem inside the house. Prevailing winds should have made it unpleasant. Occasionally we got some of the aroma if we were working outside, but it never was a serious problem. I would choose the country life any time to living in the city, there or here. Now we live on 5 1/2 acres in Ohio, we have horses and Beefalo and chickens. No odor problems, and no complaints from the neighbors.
