and dogs for herding
If you have cows you can also have oxes on the livestock
@dmac100 exactly, they need 1 acre for eating and you need a second acre to regrow.
And bulls for the leather
but a truck is the best
@Yung Koala i'm going into either carpentry/smithing so we could work together lmao
we need to think about machines to help us maximise output
combines for corn
trucks for hauling grain and trailers
Yay @ram3n 😄
Workshop when
Oh yeah
forging our own tools when
I almost forgot about the corn
Fuck yeah
Corn is a must have for vegetable starch
And even for biodiesel
Peas are awesome, they grow like hell
we can still buy from hardware stores
hrngh
we need to stop larping as a bunch of cowboys and middle ages europeans
we can have trucks, and buy shit we cant make
lmao
okay
we buy capital goods and produce consumer goods
put simply
Self sufficiency should be a long term goal, but thinking that we'd be using Amish level technology starting out is silly.
@dmac100 corn may not be optimal for energy but we can kill many problems with one solution
I think it's completely reasonble to have non-powered tools to use in a SHTF long term scenario but also make use of modern technology while we have it.
>implying I'm not gonna set up blacksmithing shop with Ramen
@dmac100 what didnt you get about buying capital goods and producing consumer goods
Heh, get a load of this guy..
we buy tools and machines and produce food to sustain ourselves
maybe even sell surpluses to outsiders
IRCC biodiesel corn farmers only get a profit through government subsidies. IF they didn't get govn't funding for "Green energy" they wouldn't break even.
