Can you believe it ?….each hybridized Percheron mule weighs about 2,200 lbs.  They were breed in Kentucky or Tennessee where horses are still used to log the hardwood forest.  

Percheron Mules… they turn white at Maturity and are gentle giants at the farm gate.  

This is the only application where six horses pushed the load other than a two horse buck rake used to load a haystack maker, The famous “Beaver Slide” in the Big Hole of Wisdom, Montana.  

These harvesting horse players are a split team  with three horse eveners.    The outside left team turns outward at the corner and this causes the inside drive wheel to back up. The right inside team backs up (backup bar) to allow the operator to make a square corner.   

The cleated power wheel has a backup clutch to the drive the sickle, the reel, and the elevator. Six horses was barley enough in the Palouse when it came time to work on steep slopes and make uphill turns.  

The really steep ground (30% to 60% slope) was set aside as pasture until the Diesel Caterpillar tractor showed the operator it had a superior might with a 40% torque rise.  http://exactrix.com/2011_PDF/Harvest_Colage.pdf

  • By 1905, the combine had become common and before long it had swept away the competition. Some of the biggest combines cut a swath 30 feet wide or more, which made them marvelously efficient, but it also meant they required a tremendous amount of horsepower.
  • Most used a 32-horse (or mule) team, and some rigs on steep rolling farmland required 50 horses.
  • Everywhere in Washington wheat country people were treated to a new spectacle: "32 horses in one hitch, pulling a machine through the fields, which gobbled up wheat in one end [and] discharged filled sacks out the other end" (Brumfield, 120-121).
  • On hills, the combine driver was often faced with the disconcerting sight of his long line of horses disappearing over a ridge.
  • "Even the most experienced drivers had a sense of relief as the combine pulled over the hill and the horses came back into view" (Scheuerman and McGregor, 85).
  • The manpower required for a typical harvest plummeted from an average of 20 to about six.

From WSU, A special story about outstanding men who took on the most difficult dryland farming area of the world producing fantastic rewards.

Mule Teams Extraordinary, four rows of six with two lead mules….all 26 mules in moderate slopes most likely around Lacrosse, Washington based on the landscape of moderately rolling land.   

Soft Wheat and Hard Red Winter Wheat Varieties were tall and provided hay and grain.  

Most of the land eroded terribly in the 60’s with the loss of livestock and alfalfa. Anhydrous Ammonia changed this world totally.

The beginning of the end of dominant diesel powered mobile and stationary vehicles is facing an old competitor, The Wind.

Mariah will take the world by storm in the next 10 years. Anhydrous Ammonia will lead the game as the storage and transportation source of the highest economic performance fuel. Always exceeding pure hydrogen.

Hydrogen will be overcome by the effectiveness of NH3.

Why will wind and anhydrous ammonia lead the way in energy and reliable grid designs?

Here are the answers of your future with renewable energy and the beginning of the end of fossil fuels.
