Burning is preferable to cutting because it also kills funguses and insects.
So what's interesting is that article says that many (most? all?) other bluberry growers also burn, but they spray oil which burns very hot. This includes modern Native American tribes. The grower featured in the article burns straw, which is the traditional way of doing it.
