Green Manure Crops

Famous quotes containing the words green, manure and/or crops:

    In his green den the murmuring seal
    Close by his sleek companion lies;
    While singly we to bedward steal,
    And close in fruitless sleep our eyes.
    George Darley (1795–1846)

    Wheat, sugarcane, chickpeas—all crops—must have manure to grow. Never forget it.
    Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.

    Listen, that’s the one that done it. The dusters. They started it anyways. Blowin’ like this year after year. Blowin’ the land away. Blowin’ the crops away. Blowin’ us away now.
    Nunnally Johnson (1897–1977)
