Question:
What is the average fuel consumption per acre?
Answer: You can expect to use between 5 and 10 gallons per
acre.
Question: How fast can I travel while
flaming?
Answer:
Around 3 miles per hour.
Question:
How does flaming kill the weeds but not hurt the crop plant?
Answer:
As long as the weeds are smaller than the crop, flaming will kill
weeds without damaging the crop. The flames from the staggered torches
are directed under the crop leaves and through the crop row. The flame
will not affect the hearty stalks but will apply intense heat to the
weed leaves and grass in the row causing damage to cell structure.
This in turn destroys the photosynthesis process which kills the weeds.
Question:
How many times will I have to flame?
Answer: Once or twice is common,
but it varies depending upon weed pressure and field conditions.
