A method for igniting plant materials over an area of land, using one or more indeterminate lengths of a rapidly igniting, prolonged burning incendiary strand. The strand may be comprised of means for rapid ignition along the longitudinal axis of the strand, in co-linear arrangement with a solid or semi-solid combustible fuel composition. The strand, or strands, are placed upon the surface of an area of land to be burned, and then ignited either manually or remotely in a manner that provides for the burning of plant materials according to desired fire behavior aspects. The present invention is particularly well suited for the prescribed burning of forest and rangeland vegetation, and may also be suitably employed in the setting of backfires or burn-outs for wildland fire control activities. |
