Margaret Perry: A Life in Film

Grass in June and January

This film details the importance of having good grass pastures for livestock. By having a good rotational system in place (one pasture for grazing, one for winter feed, and one re-growing), farmers are able to reduce costs and maximize profits. The government sponsored field day demonstrates how modern harvesting equipment saves time and labour, and reduces loss of crop nutrients by faster harvesting.
