go with the 20hp and electric start, make

around here i would have liked a shredder
at times, but it is turning out that burying
materials works better and is much more
peaceful.

woody chunks get buried deeper than branches
or small pieces, eventually the worms and fungi
take care of them all.

larger pieces left on the surface get colonised
by ants or beetles, the chooks would break them
apart going after the bugs eventually.
