Farmers are 6 weeks behind time. Every hour counts, but the ground is not yet quite fit, for highly mechanised work, It is still heavy in parts. On Sir Peter Greenwell's estate at Caterham they are falling back to old time sowing by broadcasting. Bill Cowie, farm manager has got his men broadcasting spring wheat by hand as he learned it himself years ago. In two or three days time if this weather holds the machines will come into their own again, but there isn't an hour to lose. Bill says as long as he can get the corn in the ground he will gamble on a late summer to reap it. It's no use bemoaning the weather and if you don't put the corn in it won't grow and so he has 3 of his old hands sowing from early morning till late at night. Each man can sow 8 acres a day, and he says, who knows it may be wet in two or three days. April 1947
