The animals on the farm work hard to achieve a successful harvest, with the pigs leading and organizing the efforts. Boxer, the horse, is particularly dedicated, adopting the motto 'I will work harder.' On Sundays, the animals hold ceremonies and meetings to plan the week's work. Snowball forms various committees to educate the animals, but they face challenges. Literacy improves among the animals, with most becoming literate to some degree. The pigs simplify the commandments to a single maxim, 'Four legs good, two legs bad,' and focus on educating the young. The pigs justify their privileges, such as consuming milk and apples, by claiming it's necessary for their health and the farm's management.
