English term or phrase: drills
Hay - 1 Rick of Seed Hay, 1 Rick of Meadow Hay, 1 Lump of Old Hay. Green Crops - 150 ***Drills*** of Swedes and Turnips, 40 ***Drills*** of Mangolds.

Hallo,

weiß jemand, wie "Drills" hier zu verstehen ist. Werden die Teile vielleicht drill(bohr)technisch aus dem Boden geholt?

Vielen Dank im Voraus für Eure Mühe!!!

Reihen
Explanation:
Ich glaube, beim Ernten/Ertrag spricht man eher von Reihen, beim Pflanzen von Furchen. Siehe z.B. unter "Rübenroder". Worum geht es denn hier genau? Tatsächlich habe ich nirgendwo Hinweise auf eine Norm gefunden, die die Quantität angeben würde. Ist vielleicht die Grösse der Felder woanderst angegeben?
