Vintage Farming Ireland- Threshing Oats - Irish Farming Documentary - Videos of Irish Farming Life

Once the corn stack had been built and a thresher was available to thresh the corn it was threshing time. In the 1950s threshers went from farm to farm separating the grain from the straw. In this video we show the thresher at work, showing how the stack of corn is fed into the thresher. This video should provide a short lesson on how farming was carried out in Irish farms a generation ago.
This clip was taken from our one hour long film Farming Down the Years - The Corn Harvest in Ireland in the 1950s.
