Use Horses and Save Men
Labor limits crop production this year, with horses plentiful. Missouri College of Agriculture experts suggest farmers replace two horse tools with ones requiring more horses, allowing one man and three horses on a 16 inch plow to work three acres daily, while a two 12 inch plow gang can reach about 40 acres a day with one more horse. Increasing horse stock boosts efficiency by about 74 percent, and using riding implements or Digger tools can further cut cultivation time, enabling more corn acres.
