EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Farmers about to begin cooperative cultivation of cotton at Lake Dick project, Arkansas," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1938. The image documents a pivotal moment in the history of agriculture during the Great Depression, as farmers prepare to work together in a cooperative endeavor to cultivate cotton at the Lake Dick project in Arkansas. The scene is set in the rural countryside, with a group of determined farmers standing before a field, their expressions reflecting a sense of unity and resilience in the face of economic hardship. The farmers are dressed in work clothes, some wearing hats and holding tools, as they gather around a tractor and cultivator, ready to begin the arduous task of preparing the land for planting. The Lake Dick project was part of the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal program established to provide relief and support to farmers and rural communities affected by the Great Depression. The cooperative cultivation of cotton was an innovative approach to help farmers pool their resources and labor to improve their economic situation. The photograph captures the raw beauty and harsh realities of rural life during this period, with the farmers and their machinery contrasted against the vast expanse of the cotton field. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of community and cooperation in times of hardship, and a testament to the enduring spirit of the American farmer.
