Report from Robert Boerman
After we received permission of the owner, we entered the field and the first thing we saw that this formation was a heap of ruins. What a mess... Most of the barley lays clockwise, but there were also places where it lays anti-clockwise. Almost every single stalk was broken and there was a lot of damage to the young barley, but we also found some cut-off stalks. Our first reaction was: this is a hoax, but when Rob did some measurements, we thought it wasn't a hoax at all (see next page).
