Mr Heard,38,from Illston on the Hill, Leicestershire, said: ‘The properties contained in diesel are, surprisingly, beneficial for crops
The oil price surge in the recent past has shot the price of the fertliser also..
He says that he has spent nearly $250,000 a year on fertilser due to the rising oil price rise.., of course on his 2500 acres of farm..
[i] tractor now diverts the exhaust fumes to a large box on the side, which has electric fans to cool the gases before they are pumped to 27 pipes on the cultivator towed behind.
The pipe openings are at ground level and the fumes are forced deep into the small furrows that are created.[/i]

Hi saivenkaat802003! It is amazing that he found a way to convert the fumes into fertilizer. I think that is a very intelligent thing he just discovered instead of having the fumes destroy or add to the planet's problem in global warming, now we can emulate this discovery and have those fumes used or converted as something more useful to the earth soil. I just hope that there are no setbacks on his discovery. I salute this man for his effort and discovery!
Take care always..God Bless!

This is a very good way for this farmer to save money on fertilzer. This is a really neat idea he invented he came up with for farmers. It also saved him a whole lot of money. This is really interesting

Yes, even though the investment made by him is some what large, but that is an onetime investment.. So on a long run it is a real beneficial factor.





Thanks for the BR.
