Product Information
Harvest from Sickle To Satellite VHS. Oliver Cooper's Sickle to Satellite event offered a unique opportunity to see a hundred years of cereal harvesting equipment in operation. This ranged from the sickle and scythe, through trailed reapers and binders to a representative sample of combine harvesters. Among the equipment shown operating are a 1930 McCormick Daisy sail reaper, a 1946 Lanz self-binder and Case Model Q reaper-thresher. Interviews with some of machines' owners are included. Combines at work are Massey-Harris 21 and 780, a Claas Super Junior and a Ransomes 902. Finally, a satellite-linked Massey Ferguson 40 shows just far technology has advanced from the five men with scythes shown at the start of the programme. The film has been scripted and narrated by the highly experienced team of Brian Bell MBE and Chris Opperman, and produced at Country Films by Jonathan Theobald. Running time approx 40 minutes.
