RE: pluoghing land
I think theres a difference ploughing grass into soil so to speak and ploughing already turned over soil.
Turning over grass by hand into sowable land is hard work, so I would asume hard for the cows or whatever pulling it.
However the plough in one of my earlier posts looks small and light AND the ground seems "farmed"
Thats what I have an allotment for now, its for growing food but most of all practice in growing, digging, etc...
I dont want to be practicing post shtf when I should be growing food.
After all ANY growing failures post shtf could mean the difference between life and death.
Allotments may be hard work, but in my opinion provide great exercise of the right sort ie digging exercise grows the right muscles for digging post shtf. so does being out in all weathers planning what your growing where your growing and most of all practice
With the amount of failures I experienced the first year I've learned lessons and next years crops will be better and the year after better than that and so on.

AND I store seeds.
A lot of preppers dont/wont store seeds because they think they'll be able to get them post shtf.
A mistake in my opinion, Like B.P. said in one of his posts I believe, "its always better to have something and not need it than not have it and need it"
seeds for me fall into that category but thats just my opinion that I'd rather have the seeds to plant than need seeds and not have them.

I tried to be normal once.... Worst two minutes of my life...
