When more farmers get into the groove, watch the bureaucrats go. There will be wads of new government regulations, and watchoxen agencies sprouting up (watchoxen agency is like a watchdog agency). There will be restrictions on oxen feed, how much work they can be made to do in a day, in a week. How much room they get to have when not working. Minimum age for an ox to be put to work. etc...
