The local ploughing match. I wasn’t able to speak to the drivers directly, but this horse team was fantastic! There were quite a few horse teams this year, although apparently this particular horse team does up to 20 ploughing matches a year! Given that ploughing season is a period of around six weeks, that’s a serious achievement. Later on during the match, a two-horse team may turn into a one-horse team as the ploughing furrows are required to be ‘slivers’, which is measured as the width a pheasant can run down! Using a single horse means you keep the definition of the furrow.

The Essential Role of the Plough in Agriculture
Tumblr media
The plough is a very important equipment in farming. Farmers use it to get the soil ready for planting seeds. The plough has a strong blade that goes into the ground. It turns the soil over and breaks it into smaller pieces. This helps make the soil better for plants by giving them more space to grow their roots and get nutrients.

A plough is a farm tool used to get the soil ready for planting seeds or crops. It loosens the soil and turns it over. It's typically made up of a blade, known as a ploughshare, attached to a frame or handle. When pulled or pushed through the soil, the plough digs deep furrows, allowing for better aeration and drainage.
Ploughs have been used for centuries and are essential for preparing fields for planting. For more information about cultivator, visit us at: https://shorturl.at/hnzUX

In other words, grazing land is good for methane reduction. Cropping land isn't, unless it's no-till: research has estimated that no-till agriculture can help break down methane up to 11 times faster than ploughed land.
