    • 2009 October 14, Tanja Busse, “Die Wahrheit über Bio”, in Die Zeit[1]:
      Bevor er seine Möhren sät, ist er mindestens viermal übers Feld gefahren: zum Bodenauflockern und Pflügen, danach, um die 30 Zentimeter hohen Dämme zu ziehen, und schließlich zum Flämmen, um wilde Kräuter zu töten. [] Wer zu früh fährt, den bestraft das Beikraut, das die kleinen Möhrenpflänzchen erstickt.
      Before he sows his carrots, he drove across the field at least four times: to aearate the soil and plow, then to draw the 30 cm tall dams and finally to scarf it, killing wild bugs. [] Weeds that suffocate the litte carrot plants, punish those who drive to early.
