2 pigs will clear AND till a field like nobody's business. i have seen 2 pigs do a 1/2 acre parcel from covered in weeds, to loamy black earth in a few months. plus you can use them to sew a cover crop when they are done clearing (ala sepp holzer) , they are some hard working tractors.
and of course you can eat em when you are done...ever had goatmeat? i wasnt impressed.
Goat is tasty as well (Yum) but I think they are a little less tempermental than pigs can be. Good call on the goat rental. Ive lived on farmland in the past so we always owned them. Come to think of it, I think we did 'loan them out' a couple of times for that very reason.
