Eight fire crews were called to a large grass fire on the northern outskirts of Kingaroy on Wednesday.
Emergency services were called just after noon to the fire which was burning in a 2ha paddock behind houses on Booie-Crawford Road.
A pall of smoke from the fire hung over Kingaroy.
Fire crews worked to surround the fire and then conducted back-burning.
The blaze, which was whipped up by a strong wind, was extinguished by 2:00pm.
Two crews remained on scene to ensure the area remained safe.
