France is one of Europe’s largest
agricultural nations. Its agricultural
production is highly varied, ranging
from wheat to wine, from rice to sugar
beet. The two film-makers Jörn and
Tammo Gläser have visited the country’s
most interesting regions with their
cameras at various times of year and in
a three-part DVD series they present
cutting-edge agricultural machinery set
off against impressive landscapes.
Agriculture in France Vol. 1

involves numerous agricultural machines
that are typical for France, recorded
by the film-makers from the ground and
from the air. Learn more about the
