la culture de poireau ... Angleterre/England, Lincolnshire, Coningsby, 2010-07-20: shreddering weeds on the headlands of this leek field ...

thanks you very much for explaining me "leeks" - I still always love to learn something new. Is there also anybody able to explain me something about the small onions with the "blooming" crops which are windrowed and topped before (see pics above)? What are they called exactly? What are they used for? Look a liitle bit like planting onions used in my garding instead of seeding onions ...

England/Angleterre, region Lincolnshire, Coningsby, 2010-07-20: Fighting against weeds with a Garford row cultivator (and a sprayer passing by). The farmer referred to the plants I thought to be onions as what I understood as "leaks" or so. However, I did not find this term in my dictionary. Who can explain?

3) harvesting early potatos:

2) harvesting a strange kind of (unknown to me) "blowing" (!?) plants with small onions with a row crop tractor equipped with a windrower and another tractor equipped with kind of a crop cutter?:

Have been over on your island for just a couple of days two weeks ago, doing the air tattoo over at Fairford, then hunting some airplanes East Anglia via Cranwell - Coningsby - Mildenhall and finally Lakenheat for the F-22 Raptors deployed there. Plane spotting was my primary hobby until farming action cought me, reducing my aircraft hobby to just a few days per year ... Anyway, back to topic: England/Angleterre, region Sleaford, Leasingham Moor, 2010-07-20: farming action on three fields within a few yards ... 1) shreddering the crop of flower bulbs?
