EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 1930s on an Essex farm near Rickling, where a farmer is using horse-drawn machinery to spray main-crop potatoes with Bordeaux Mixture as a preventative measure against late blight. The image showcases the historical farming practices of the time, highlighting the manual labor and attention to detail required for crop maintenance.
The lush green field serves as a backdrop for this snapshot of agricultural history, with the farmer diligently tending to his crops with precision and care. The use of traditional methods such as horse-drawn machinery adds an element of nostalgia to the scene, reminding us of simpler times when technology had not yet taken over every aspect of farming.
