Oxen versus horses for farm teams debated in period piece
In a historical farming excerpt, arguments favor oxen for combined work and beef production, noting oxen can do substantial work while yielding meat but require longer mastication. It contrasts with horses which are steadier for hard labor, and discusses breeding briefly. The text also covers winter vegetable storage, fruit tree picks, and notes Icelandic butter trade and horse feed tips using yellow corn in New England.
