Wheat harvesting on the film-maker's farm in Thorpe-le-Soken.

Shot on his own farm, this film offers the film-maker's personal view of the wheat harvest. A field of ripe wheat is tested for ripeness, and then a close up-shot of the blades of a Claas trailer combine. This combine is shown in the field and there are shots of a self-propelled combine. The corn is shown in close-up moving along conveyor belts and pouring into the storage tanks. There is a close-up of this. The film concludes with close-up shots of the machinery. The whole film is cut to music.
