Lightning cannot be prevented, it is an integral part of the functioning of the Earth and its balances of energy and electrostatic charges. The primary disadvantage of lightning is not just the potential to damage plants like trees, but also the risk associated with killing animals. Livestock that have been struck by lightning often die, which means a loss of income and productivity for the producer involved in sustainable agricultural practices. It is also not a reliable source of nitrogen fixation, because of the rarity and randomness of the strike pattern. A producer involved in sustainable agriculture must make use of legumes to provide a steady source of nitrogen fixation.
