| Video Discription | This film has been made available for research and educational purposes courtesy the British Council Film Collection. http://film.britishcouncil.org/british-council-film-collection/about-the-collection. This film demonstrates how advances in technology and machinery have helped modernise agriculture in Britain. The following film synopsis courtesy Films of Britain - British Council Film Department Catalogue - 1944. 'British agriculture is the most mechanised in the world. Root crops are picked by machinery; machines reap, bind and thresh the grain; the new mechanised methods of planting and watering vegetables are contrasted with the old. Land is reclaimed by machinery to meet today's need for increased food production.' The combine harvester seen from 12:35 is a Massey-Harris No. 21, the first self-propelled, mass-produced combine harvester. The yellow tractor seen from 04:00 is a Caterpillar D2, produced from 1939-1957. The women seen planting vegetables throughout Power on the Land were likely Land Girls, women who were employed by farmers when the usual male workers were called up to fight in the war.
