How to make food for cows and horses:
Cows eat clove hay and chop. Chop is a mixture of oats, corn, malassis
(kind of like fiber for us), and minerals. Clove hay is dark when baled, a
brownish color actually.
Horses eat timothy hay and oats. Timothy is green and has seed holders on
it, unlike clove. It is often mixed with alfalfa. Oats are planted every
year. The oats are harvested and is used for the lifestock. The stocks
that support the oats are cut, raked(I think, I've never harvested this stuff
before), and baled as straw. It's lighter, since it's used for bedding, not
food. So you don't need all the vitamins and things.
How to plant a garden:
I'm going to summarize this, since there's too much for one page. Plow the
area, make all the dirt loose. Designate a walk area(usually where the tractor tires go through), get a hoe and dig up small holes between the tracks,
put fertilizer in it, put the seed or plant on top of it, and cover up the hole.
That's the start. For more info, feel free to e-mail me.

How to stack a hay wagon:
There are several combinations that work, but only a few that work when
woodchuck(groundhog) holes exist. The one I use is a pyramid formation.
It holds about 75 bale(a small load), but I haven't lost a bale yet.
