The choice of whether a farmer kept horses or oxen depended on various factors. Oxen were strong but slow. Horses were more expensive and also more prestigious. Some areas with heavy and clay soil required strong animals for ploughing, so the choice was oxen. Horses were sufficient for cultivating black earth or sandy soils. Some peasants used oxen for two or three years for ploughing, then sold them and bought new ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In some periods, oxen were also preferred under the influence of external circumstances. During the Thirty Years&#8216; War, for example, soldiers often stole horses to use them for transporting themselves or provisions. Peasants therefore preferred oxen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"154\" src=\"https:\/\/www.czechlandbooks.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/post-6-6-300x154.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.czechlandbooks.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/post-6-6-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/www.czechlandbooks.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/post-6-6.png 342w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption><em>3 Ochsen<\/em> &#8211; 3 oxen<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"101\" src=\"https:\/\/www.czechlandbooks.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/post-6-5-300x101.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.czechlandbooks.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/post-6-5-300x101.png 300w, https:\/\/www.czechlandbooks.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/post-6-5.png 452w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption><em>1 Zuegochs<\/em> &#8211; 1 draft ox<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes you will find the term <em>b\u011bhoun <\/em>in land books.
