Guest guest Posted June 20, 2001 Report Share Posted June 20, 2001 Dandavad. Prabhupada kijaya! Here in Mayapur area, a team of bullocks can plow only a little more than ..36 acre per day at a cost of Rs. 450 per acre compared to a tractor which can do about 13 acres a day at a cost of Rs. 180 per acre. The speed of the tractor is one of the major disincentives for using oxen on the ISKCON land. THey say they just do not have the manpower and time to use bullocks and get the large amount of land plowed in time. Can anyone here give me some similar numbers for western oxen?
