- In this film we re-create the potato harvest as it would have been done here in Ireland in the 1950's & 1960's. At this time tractors were starting to the replace the horse on Irish farms and the farming implements which came with them could now carry out the once back breaking jobs associated with growing potatoes. In this video we show the farming of potatoes with both the traditional methods, which had been used here in Ireland for centuries, and the vintage tractors and their machinery.

Just spectacular! Nice editing too. Thanks.
I remember all that well, in 1950s and early 1960s, around Tandragee.
Memories flooding i
Just seen my late dad in the middle 3.47 miss him
I've learned a lot. Thanks. My grandparents were fishermen in Southwest Donegal, but I've seen the Fields where spuds and such were grown. I can pass on some stories of how life was now even though I was never there to see the immense amount of hard labour involved. Great job!
Really appreciate the breadth of info included. Thanks (again).

10 pounds a box? that sounds pretty generous. But hey! not every day you get to try your hand at some traditional farming. Looks like everyone had a great time.
Rarebit.
A pint in Dublin costs 10 quid today.

U call it a disc plow, we yanks call it a disc harrow, but really only green homesteaders call it that. Real farmers just call it a disc
Yes, in uk we call them discs. Hi falutin people call them disc harrows.
There is an implement called a disc plough. A disc harrow is a distinctly different implement shown here.
How do you keep those nasty little rabbits away? Our neighborhood mob of bunnies chomped every one of them down
