wow thank you SO MUCH for this! my 3 year old son who is very into tractors and modern farming...when i told him about the work horses used to do before there were tractors...he just could NOT BELIEVE IT. he was jus amazed by this video!:)
Love this! For TEOTWAWKI [the end of the world as we know it], it will be time to return to that connection with horses and the land that electricity and fuel took from mankind. As a sheepdog needs to herd and a beagle needs to hunt, the workhorse is fulfilled doing what he was made to do. See how their ears are forward? How intent they are? Caesar the Dog Whisperer said he'd never met neurotic dogs until he came to America, where this culture doesn't understand the nature of the dog.
Why are horses better, the interviewer asks: --tractors tear up and pack down the dirt, 'spoils the ground, that's the way I figger',-- horses are better on soggy fields,-- tractors cost fuel and repairs,-- horses work for hay and oats, -- can be fed without money or diesel fuel -- horses are quieter, and you aren't alone like you are on a tractor. Care: clean, feed, water. Easier in summer as you can leave em outside The Belgians work harder for less food than the Clydesdale and Percherons
I really don't think you have a clue what you are talking about. I've been using horses on the farm for over 25 years and am surrounded by Amish using horses as their sole means of farm power. There's not a thing wrong with the horses shown.
Watch these horses in the video & see they are not trained farming horses . NOTHING wrong with that. They are beautiful, just need more experience. the gentleman working them is doing a good job .. If he farms with these 2 horses 2 years, look at them then, you will see a dramatic change in them. Watch a well trained farm horse work, then and only then will you see the difference between trained and untrained.
If that were even remotely true you wouldn't be saying what you are. You'd understand the difference between young horses and horses not quite in their groove and "a joke".
This is the 2nd video I've found where you diss the horses and farmers as a joke and claimed the horses are not trained to plow. I don't know what you expect them to do that they aren't. Jump up into a tractor seat and start plowing maybe? You either have no clue what you're talking about or you just enjoy criticizing other people. Either way, you aren't worth listening to.
these horses look well cared for-their owners appreciate them. nice video.

Trained and not trained .
If you can understand it.
HUGE difference.
I have worked horses/mules MUCH longer than 25 years.

That is NOTHING like it used to be.
Those horses are NOT trained to plow.
What a joke as far as work horses
