What do they do with the ash?
When it's cooled it would be good for your garden.

around here we sometimes get the smell from dairy farms and cattle feedlots in the spring when things first warm up. a few years ago the Farm harvest contractor Did not use a moisture meter when he baled our hay too wet and after a couple weeks the spontanious combustion was starting and some bales started smoking. He had left his big forklift loader and I was able to spread the smoking bales out in the field and they cooled down and the smopke stopped

yes ,, it is always hauled away a truck or trailer load at a time .

i live on an acre of land that was a homestead going back nearly 200 years .. from time to time things come up out of the ground that surprise me .. when i use to have a garden plot i always found pieces of farm implements and horse collar things and stepped on square nails all the time .. i even found a 1914 penny in good shape in my garden .. but anywho several years ago a funny looking wrench popped up out of the ground and i just hung it on a tree limb near some chain links and other stuff the earth had spit out .. yesterday i was looking at the wrench again and noticed it was adjustable .. it is a stoneage adjustable wrench ,, i looked it up and found out the adjustable wrench was invented in the mid 1800s ..and improved upon in the late 1800s .. as i work at a lowes and we now have craftsman tools i wonder if i clean this thing up and find it to be a craftsman tool could i exchange it for a new one ?

Just soak it in phosphoric and it will look like new.
