Michael's cine clips - farming in the 1960's/70's

7:32 A five furrow plough on a Major! No wonder he's only ploughing downhill. Beautiful video.

Never seen rowing up and bailing at the same time with one tractor, back in those days... Absolutely brilliant video... love the Ransome combine....We had the cavalier and the crusader...all the best..

Lovely film. Thank you. I particularly enjoyed seeing the trailed Ransomes combine and Field Marshall tractor in action.

Thanks Matthew - some familiar sights there and I caught sight of Trevornick at times too! Happy memories!

Soon as I spotted the local plates I thought great! Got some Cornish footage her. I grew up on small Cornish farm at this time, lots of memories! Good that you have held on to most the tractors, I’ve got a 62 power major myself.👍

Brilliant video thanks for sharing brought back alot of memories of the old fordson majors we had on our farm in Ni happier times🙂

Love the video, not much different from our farming back in the 60's here in the USA. Just the brands of iron different. Back when a small family farm could make it!

Same here in the UK a family could make a living on a 150 acre farm in the 60s and 70s.

Mid Cornwall? I would think. Ransome's Caviler and Crusader both produce a lovely clean sample, good to see couple of Field Marshalls in action.

Amazing footage - fantastic clips of how farming was in those days . I drove an identical Field Marshall at around the same time.
