I wish the tomato farmers in these parts would do something like this instead of first poisoning and later burning the fields.

And don't forget, every truckload of tomatoes that leaves the Eastern Shore is actually a truckload of WATER. When I lived there, people were having to get deep-wells dug because the tomato-irrigating agribusinesses had drained the upper water table and the shallow wells were running dry.
