Description:
On the outbreak of WW1, farming was on the brink of ruin. By the 1960s, it was thriving once more.
Events in Britain and beyond changed agricultural life, as farmers lived through half a century of debts, economic slump and two world wars. Farming emerged much stronger, but it had been changed forever.
Using archive film from Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire this DVD shows those changes in farming and is a fascinating look back at a time gone by.
Interviews with farm workers as they recall their memories, unseen footage of early tractors and machinery and the women's land army are all featured plus much more.
