After grass seed was harvested from thousands of acres between Salem and Portland they were regularly burned off for decades. The enviros only allow a few hundred acres to be burnt now and then, as far as I know.

I have friends who grow grass seed in the Wyomette (sp?) Valley. I remember when they were fighting the efforts to stop them from burning off their fields.
