This is a question to which Thomas Onfroy, a farmer based in Valcanville, cannot find an answer. Who can be at the origin of the gigantic agrogram drawn in one of its fields, in Sainte-Geneviève, in the night? A group of artists? Aliens?

The strange pattern, called the crop circle, takes shape with the collapse of some of the wheat strands." On Saturday, 8 June, at the time of the train was a tractor in front of the plot, as every day, remembers the young farmer. I realized that wheat had shed, but I didn't worry, I thought it was because of the wind. But it intrigued me anyway, because it was the only terrain involved. When I arrived there, I realized that it was not due to the wind." Thomas Onfroy then discovers a gigantic pattern, 70 meters long, composed of several circles and semicircles. Spikes sagging in "perfect symmetry, both on the lines and the curves", notes the peasant.

Faced with his plot of flexed wheat, "my first emotion is a little bit of annoyance," said the farmer. Because it's still part of my culture that's destroyed." Amount of losses: "300 Euros". But today, the farmer is mostly in "incomprehension. What happened? I'd like to know the truth."

Aspiring or alien artist?

The investigation begins. At the bar-tobacco L'Océane, in Valcanville, no one is yet aware of the presence of the agrogram, located one kilometer away. "It's beautiful, it's an incredible job," says Vincent Jean, co-managing him, amazed by discovering the photograph in the Presse de la Manche, the first to talk about the case. It's the work of an artist, that's for sure."
For Marcel, one of the clients, there is also no question of Martians: "the phenomenon has been known for about fifteen years in England".

The farmer, on the other hand, remains open to all possibilities. "It's almost unfeasible by hand, all on its own," he said. And people in a plot, like this, at the foot of a road, that's noticeable. So yes, it leaves a lot of questions." A crop circle specialist even came to inspect the field on Thursday, June 13: "he was quite annoyed, he could not certify that the agrogram was made by a human." Mystery.
