Suffolk is big time argricultural territory - carrots, parsnips, onions, rapeseed, and sugar beets to name a few. I don't know what they were planting here, but I got a picture before the did becuase I am always blown away by how much soil there is here.
Maybe my perception is skewed by seeing farms in eastern Montana and Colorado, where the soil is thin and dusty. The furrows in this field where no kidding 2 or 3 feet deep.
This guy is lucky though, becuase a lot of the fields are covered in flint stones -- tihs soil looks pretty smooth. At any rate, this is the one of the last fields to get planted around Bury - a lot of the rapeseed crop is already up and flowering.
