Demonstration of one way ploughs and fertiliser spreaders

There are general shots of the location at E.F. Harrold's farm at Oulton before various types of tractor-drawn ploughs are seen at work. These are followed by demonstrations in fertiliser spreading by both tractor-drawn and mounted spreaders. The hoppers are filled from plastic bags. These had just been introduced. The spreaders are shown at work on their plots.
