This is a unique four-part DVD series
looking in-depth at the farming year at
Clopton Green Farm, an East Anglian
arable farm. Detailed attention is
given to crops and agronomy as well as
machinery, cultivations and every
aspect of modern farming.
Farm-manager Steven Offord explains his
decisions and the reasoning behind
them. Structured in seasonal order, the
series encompasses everything from
cultivations through to maintenance
work. Crop walks keep the viewer up to
date with progress throughout the year.
Crops grown include wheat, spring
barley, oilseed rape, sugar beet and
spring beans. The wide range of
machinery used is predominantly from
the AGCO stable with Challenger, MF and
Fendt tractors represented, along with
John Deere. All action is captured
comprehensively using unique camera
angles.
This groundbreaking series will appeal
to everyone interested in or involved
with agriculture.
Suffolk-based Chris Lockwood is a
freelance agricultural journalist,
author and creator of a growing list of
programmes on farming and farm
machinery.
