Two New Crop Circles In Wiltshire

[Alien Guy]

Thats all? I thought it would turn into a bloodbath! Anyway, to get back on subject: To infer wether it was a fake or real, you would have to know the locals. Many crop circles are artaficial and just an excuse to get attention. Is this a poor area that would fake a crop circle to get publicity and tourism? Or is it an area that would not need any of that? It may just be a group of hoodlum kids! We would need much more info to make an accurate assumption.

?!?!? the CC"s you & everyone else (in general) are always discussing are those in the UK!!!! ARE THEY NOT???? so what's ya point??
so farmers do not walk through the crop checking the health etc of the plants to see if it's ok to start plowing??? fair enough, you know best

That is WHY they create the tram lines as they plant the seeds. You don't need tram lines on bare land!!!! After you disc and plow and prepare the soil....you use your tractor to plant the seeds and at the same time that creates tram lines. ....and yes the tram lines allow the farmer to walk through his crop as it grows.....without damaging the crop!!!
I said in my very first post about this that I could not speak for farmers in the UK....which is why I did some googling and found out they create and use tram lines the same way we do here in the USA.
What is it about tram lines that you don't understand??????
I only know about this because I grew up on a ranch and we farmed a lot of land and planted a large variety of crops!!! There are not a lot of things in this world that I do NOT know...but farming is one of them that I do have quite a bit of experience with!!! Even so, I am not claiming to be an expert....only sharing what I have learned as the daughter of a rancher/farmer.
Oh...and you do not need to walk through a field to know when it is time to plow....plowing is what you do after you have harvested the crop....you plow up the stubble.
Some reasons for walking the tram lines...would be to check for bug infestations that would require spraying....or to see how the seed pods are coming along as it nears harvest time....but you do not have to walk the entire field to do that.

According to my dads friend, tram lins can be used for both of the purpoes you 2 are arguing. (He and his family have farmed for gerations.) So in my opinion you are both right.

And i did Dej (post 31) care to share your idea of who/what it was?

Good grief......read my last words...you do not HAVE to walk the entire field to do those things. It is not a NEED!!! Ever notice how tram lines are in two's??...that is if they NEED to spray for bugs or add fertilizer....the tram lines are for the TRACTOR wheels!!!
This idea of farmers out walking up and down tram lines is silly.
NOW do ya get it????

what are you waffling on about?!?!? so 'things, people, tractors' whatever, do go in the fields then???? hence the tram lines?? no ****, really?? i learn something new every day in this place

[Miss Deetective]

So back to the main point....how did they enter and exit that field without disturbing the crop along the borders where there are no tram lines????

I dont think they could. However has anyone looked at the local news to see if there was an investigation, and what they might have found? They could have found some good evidence in 2 days if it was artificial and not caused by aliens.
