IowaMark - 12/30/2017 06:47 You never will completely eliminate them. I can vividly remember my dad telling me back in 1976 the first year I started farming that he fought weeds his whole life, his dad fought weeds his whole life and that I will fight weeds my whole life. So far he’s been 100% right. I really don’t foresee that changing anytime soon.
For as long as we are on earth, we will be fighting weeds in our fields.
Genesis 3:17-19New International Version (NIV)17 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’ “Cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.
19 By the sweat of your brow
you will eat your food
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”
