About 40 people came together to listen to Alfred discuss their theoretical and practical knowledge on handling of animals in agriculture. I say talk because sadly, despite having done an excellent day, the ground was too wet, two days before had been raining to work on it. However, helped by superb images in the morning and seeing the tools, gardening and animals in the afternoon, we get a fair idea of \u200b\u200bvery special significance and as efficient (maximum effort and energy invested ratio compared to the result obtained rather than motor machinery) than it is to work the land with horses, mares, mules or burros. One conclusion: this technique, or rather the art, alone or combined with motor machinery, not a thing of the past, on the contrary it is a cornerstone for the future sustainability of the planet (do not forget that most farmers the world work only with their hands and tools, even with the strength of animals).
The fun part was more than fulfilled, particularly because of the environment where they spent the day pleasant and the food we share with fraternal insurance. Sorry for those that could not have both things! Maybe next time!
