Farming in the 1920s and 30s (Shire Library) Book

With world markets upset and economies in recession, the 1920s and '30s were not an easy time for farmers, who required great resilience to survive.

Some used tractors and other machines to increase productivity, and the motor car and lorry opened up new possibilities for bringing produce to market.
