The mechanisation of Agriculture - shows vintage tractors working on the farm, threshers, hay bailers, traction engines, and many other now antique farm machines.
'British agriculture is the most mechanised in the world. Root crops are picked by machinery; machines reap, bind and thresh the grain; the new mechanised methods of planting and watering vegetables are contrasted with the old.
Land is reclaimed by machinery to meet today's need for increased food production.'
