So, uh, why would anyone bulldoze dead almond trees if they're not going to replace them with another crop yet? Seems like it would just increase soil erosion

At a guess, scrub fire hazard?

I'm guessing that the almond farmers know what they're doing. Maybe dead trees encourage diseases that attack live trees.

They're probably going to just let the land lie fallow.
