5 hrs confidence: 
plow and prepare it (by adding fertilizer) Explanation: September is when most grains and other spring-planted crops are harvested. ... Sometimes, after a field is harvested, farmers plow it and add more fertilizer. This helps restore nutrients in the soil that the last crop used up. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2019-06-03 03:27:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- this is not much more than a guess but I don't think the source text is a typo and my gut feeling is that after harvesting the farmer has to get the field up and going again -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2019-06-03 03:29:54 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "anführen" im Sinne von bereitstellen.... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2019-06-03 03:31:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- aber wie gesagt, bin ich mir überhaupt nicht sicher in diesem Fall... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2019-06-03 03:33:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- im Gegensatz zu "einführen" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2019-06-03 03:36:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- oder "einfahren" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2019-06-03 03:43:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- lasst uns nicht vergessen, daß "anführe" sich auf das Feld beziehen könnte, aber wie dem auch sei... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2019-06-03 03:45:38 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- wie Kim mit Recht meint, brauchen wir mehr Zusammenhang... |

11 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +8
peer agreement (net): +8| das Feld anführen to lead the field Explanation: This is a word play, as already pointed out by Björn and confirmed by the bits of extra context. So something like 'not only work the field but [also] lead the field' could work well. |
