What a Banned Canadian Sidearm Would Say if it Wrote a Piece about Itself.

Estimated Reading Time: 4 minutes Hi, my name is Sig Sauer and in my particular case my model is P226. I am originally designed to chamber 9mm parabellum but have many other redesigns and have been rebuilt to chamber other ammunition. I know, a bit odd but as the human saying goes, it takes all sorts. It is what it is I guess. I am a semi-automatic but have big brothers and cousinsΒ  who can switch to automatic when their humans change the fire mode via a selector switch. My parents are of German origin and were born in 1985 in EckernfΓΆrde but my grandparents are from Virginia in the United States. I have aunts and uncles all over the United States and our family is even scattered as far as South Africa. Read more…

Plants Cry??? Yet Another Stupid Revelation of So Called ‘Science’ on the War on Agriculture

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes Howdy folks, I trust this finds you all well, wherever you are in this increasingly maddening world. I’m just gonna jump straight to it and lump the pleasantries for now. I cannot believe the stuff that has been happening. Russia took over the UN security council last week, even more so I dub it the United Nothing for a reason. UK’s Labour leader, Keir Starmer is under fire for his stance on the transgender shenanigans, which I might blog about in time but as it isn’t really in line with the primary niche of this blog I will have to deliberate it. Although I must say from a personal viewpoint that it is abnormal. Oh, and just yesterday I stumbled across a BBC article stating that the British Read more…

Who Is Equus Niger

Estimated Reading Time: 6 minutes Apart from the AboutΒ page maybe I should just write a piece of who I am. Who is Equus Niger, who is the guy behind it? Well, my name is Guy Taylor, I am a 44 year old male originally from Zimbabwe and for a while I really had no idea who I was or what I truly wanted out of life. I ambled on through trying to figure out who I actually was and what I wanted to do with my life. I tried several things and looked at avenues to pursue and nothing really lept out at me, apart from the British Army which I tried to join for many years but bureaucracy, coupled with my own bad timing didn’t happen but I kept trying until I Read more…

The Nonsensical War on Agriculture

Estimated Reading Time: 6 minutes   It often concerns me with the way the world has gone, not only because of the β€œwokeness” but one of my biggest concerns, especially coming from agric stock is the war on agriculture, which unfortunately is a big deal and is very real. Some time ago, a few months back on December 12, 2022 I stumbled upon an article on the Netherlands who, due to EU regulations on climate change were shutting down 3,000 farms. That is a way of life, an existence for thousands of families, for not only the farm owners themselves but their labour too. I of course mentioned this in my Instagram, which can be followed by clicking the social icon in the sidebar, or by clickingΒ here. This however does not only affect Read more…

Where Is Zimbabwe Headed?

Estimated Reading Time: 6 minutes Howdy folks, I trust all are well. To my returning visitors I must apologize for my absence. I am aware that I need to be more proactive on my blogging, but the strange thing is I do think of new content to write, especially when it comes to the primary niche of this blog, which is agricultural but sitting down and writing what I have intended blogging about and have researched I’m for some reason not very good at it, despite the fact that I am a writer and have several books in the pipeline, but I am sure I will get there. The strange thing is I have been known to pump out two blogs in a day, one after the other and then no more for Read more…

John Deere’s Indirect Assault, Joining the War on Agriculture

Estimated Reading Time: 7 minutes Here we go again, I really do need to start blogging more, especially with the future plans I have for this website, in the realms of eCommerce, but I’m here now – feeling a little happier with the way I’m getting this website to look. I’m not very savvy when it comes to website design so I’m learning, bit by bit, inch by inch. After all, that’s what life is for right (well, part of it, a big part)? Learning. Anyway, so by now the entire agric community, wherever they are in the world knows about the lawsuits facing John Deere over the right to repair and quite rightfully so. John Deere, by all intents and purposes, have, whether directly or indirectly joined in the assault on the Read more…

The Past and Future of Zimbabwean Agriculture

Estimated Reading Time: 9 minutes It has been a while since I have blogged. That which I have going on in my life, both from a current existence and something I am working towards has preoccupied me which has precluded me from doing much writing at all, whether it be with the books I am writing (which I shelved temporarily some time ago) or with my blogging. The main thing I have not written about in a while is anything agricultural. My previous agricultural blog was on agricultural automation and before that was a piece on the global grain crisis and ways it could be combatted which I stick by. I will place hyperlinks for these at the bottom of this blog. On the agricultural automation part I am old enough (or too Read more…

The Ugly Misdeeds and Truths of Horse Racing

Estimated Reading Time: 8 minutes First, before I continue this blog it is not an animal rights blog, this is purely a reflection on the realities and cruelties surrounding horse racing and the damages it does to the horses. Not only physiologically but psychologically too. It takes a lot of hard work and grit to retrain OTTBs because of what they have had to endure in the past, not only at the hands of their jockeys, both on and off the racetrack, but also at the mercy of their so called ‘trainers’, but also at the hands of their owners who are only in it, not for the welfare of their horse, or horses/racing stock but the fortunes that can be made within the realms of race horse stock. But through a lot Read more…

Zimbabwe and Its Suicidal Course

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes I don’t like to blog about politics and political analysis and I stepped away from it a while ago. It was not good for me and it created some very hostile, or toxic environments and whilst I mainly blogged about British and Zimbabwean politics, separately, on a whole I did not enjoy it. Although they are sought after niches in the world of blogging, it just was not me. I have not felt at all comfortable about writing this blog but hopefully it will give people more awareness as to what happened to a once formidable country with so much potential. With that this will be the last time you will see a blog about Zimbabwean politics (or any politics for that matter) on this website. This will Read more…

Agricultural Automation: What Works and What Shouldn’t Even Be Considered to Touch

Estimated Reading Time: 4 minutes   I am trying to work out whether this will be a rant or an objective piece, or maybe both because although I see the pros of having an automated agricultural setup I think I see more cons and this has been my gripe for a number of months now, possibly for over a year. Firstly I am going to say that the future is beginning to scare the crap out of me but that does not mean I can fight it, no one can, it is here and we have to deal with it. By way of technological advancement each generation since time ememorial has had to deal with those challenges since way before modern mankind, I’m sure there was some cavemanΒ  that decided when something resembling Read more…
