BROKEN CROPS: The marks at Elton Farm in Raufoss (local community Ed.) were created
on Tuesday this week. The grain was broken right above the ground.

Large geometrical shapes, which have appeared in fields both at Romerike and Toten (local communities about 10 km. north of Oslo Ed.), are a guarantied bluff, says UFO-expert.

- For all I know English tourists on holyday in Norway could have made this, says Ole Jonny Brænne in UFO-Norway (Norwegian UFO-organisation. Ed.) We haven’t seen many such markinggs in Norwegian fields. But in England an enormous number of pranksters have been exposed, he says.

In any case Brænne is sure that humans have made the markings in the crop both at Hvam in Nes (local community Ed.) and at Elton Farm in Raufoss.

The three perfect circles below Old Hvam Farm in Nes were the first ones observed in Norway, Tuesday last week. The somewhat larger circles at Elton Farm in Raufoss appeared the night before Tuesday this week.

- In both cases the grains are broken right above the ground. This indicates that someone has forced the plants down, explains Brænne. If the plants had been bent higher up and not broken, I would have been more uncertain. Such phenomena, for which we do not have a good, natural explanation, have also been reported in England.

Brænne hopes that the "UFO-tracks" which have appeared in Norwegian fields this last week, is a passing phenomenon.

- Pranksters like these can contribute to disbelief in other observations that are classified as UFOs, he states.

UFO-Norway gathers all reports about UFOs that are made in Norway, and tries to find natural explanations for them. For between 20 and 40 such observations one has not been able to find natural explanations. Brænne, nevertheless, is sceptical to the explanation that the UFO-observations are a result of aliens visiting our world.

- Such an explanation is not completely impossible, but not very likely, he says.
