An excellent series of a farming life told with a hint of nostalgia but also with intelligence and for the time a very forward looking, balanced outlook which still resonates today. It would be fantastic if this could be followed up by a look at the state of farming in Britain today and the geopolitical situation.
Fabulous, really enjoyed this, reminded me of my childhood as I was lucky enough to have been brought up on a farm in the 50s 60s which had one remaining heavy horse with all of the original tack he remained on the farm in idyllic retirement
"A farmer can be rich, but then he is stopped!" A wise word and still actual in 2024 - even here in Holland - Thank you very much for this videos and glad to hear a grandson/son is still farming! Love from Holland

Politicians and weather...and the self righteous... Farmer's bane. Excellent program...

It's ridiculous that for half a century farmers have essentially been farming a subsidy.
Slaves to the supermarkets
