MASSEY FERGUSON ARCHIVE Vol 9
American Farming - Five Tons To The Acre

This new exciting series of programmes digs deep into Massey Ferguson's amazing film archive, bringing to the screen rare and original films produced to promote their brand new ranges from over 70 years ago, right up to the present day. The series builds into a unique record of the impact made by MF and its predecessors the world over.
 
For Volume Nine, we travel to North America to look at farming life during the late 1950s and early 1960s. Meet EB - an up and coming lad entering a national tractor competition for young farmers. Another fascinating film titled "Five Tons To The Acre" beautifully demonstrates the hay making practices of the day and features a whole range of associated machinery, as well as discussing the pros and cons of beef farming. There are five films in total including a very entertaining look at the MF combine range in "Harvesting Non-stop"

Whatever your specific interest, you will be certain to find something fascinating in this unique series as we move from vintage machines, through the classic era and then to the sophisticated machines of today.
