Jesus continues speaking to the crowd.
Jesus told this parable
He spoke the parable to explain his statement in the previous verse that they should repent or perish.
Why let it waste the ground
This is a rhetorical question. It can be translated as a statement as it is in the UDB or as a command: "Do not let it waste the ground." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
