    I know I might not have this right as I'm British and a farmer but I thought a touchdown was 6 points with either an extra kick gaining an extra point to make the usual 7 or they could go for a 2 point conversion by crossing the goal line into the end zone.

    Hi😊😊😊. Question🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔???: what would be result if left over ground cover was burned to ash andWould the stuff that normally attacks corn, or causes yield to lower help grow healthy corn??? Seems it would be worth introducing an acre or two with ash. Might make a diff. Should provide nutrition quicker. If ash could. be hot when worked into soil, might be a magic. Bullet.
