The Womens Land Army was established in June 1939 to meet the demand for agricultural labour caused by the absence of male farm workers on active service and the need to boost domestic food production in the face of the reduction in imports due to German attacks on shipping. Over 80, 000 women volunteered for the Womens Land Army

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history during World War II. The image showcases British girls of the Women's Land Army learning to plough with a tractor, highlighting their crucial role in meeting the demand for agricultural labor. With male farm workers on active service, these brave women stepped up to boost domestic food production and support the war effort. Over 80,000 women volunteered for the Women's Land Army, symbolizing their dedication and determination to contribute to their country during wartime. In this photograph, we witness them eagerly watching and learning how to drive the powerful agricultural machinery that would help feed a nation at war. The image not only represents their involvement in farming but also serves as a metaphor for "ploughing your own furrow" and embracing girl power. These young ladies defied traditional gender roles by taking charge of heavy machinery typically operated by men. As we gaze upon this monochrome scene from the 1940s, it is impossible not to feel inspired by these courageous women who played an integral part on the home front. Their resilience and hard work remind us of the immense sacrifices made during World War II while emphasizing that strength knows no gender boundaries. This remarkable print serves as a timeless reminder of an extraordinary chapter in history when ordinary civilians became heroes through their unwavering dedication and commitment to serving their country.
