Episode 4
On John Lewis-Stempel鈥檚 farm it鈥檚 harvest time, but will he use a traditional combine harvester? Read by Bernard Hill.
A close up and intimate natural history by John Lewis-Stempel. By taking an abandoned field close to his farm, he observes in minute detail the behaviour of plants, birds and animals that are being displaced by agribusiness. In telling the story of one field, he tells the story of our countryside, our language, our religion and our food. But in transforming one field, he creates a haven for one particular animal close to his heart - the brown hare.
Part four brings us to harvest time, but no traditional farmer would dream of using a combine harvester.
