DVD PAL

Now Available
This, the first of a two-part DVD set, covers the development of beet harvesters from 1960 to the mid-1990s. It documents the changes, firstly, from trailed single-row side-elevator harvesters on to multi-row trailed machines. It deals with early self-propelled harvesters and finally with the more recent six-row tanker machines.
The majority of the machines are shown at work in all weathers on farms, filmed specifically for this programme by Chris Lockwood. The machines covered in part 1 are:
