Farmers sometimes make surprising discoveries in their fields. Example in Hesbaye with this farmer who found a huge hole in the middle of his land. A marl that reminds us that in the 19th century, the subsoil was exploited to extract chalk. We went to meet the farmer.
It was the shock of my life when I saw the depth of the hole
François Gillet is a young farmer. Last Sunday, he was cultivating a field located in Lens-Saint-Remy, between Braives and Hannut. At the wheel of his tractor, he had the fright of his life when he discovered a hole at ground level a few meters away. “It was the shock of my life when I saw the depth of the hole” he testifies.
