This is a widely acclaimed film that incisively probes the complex problems of American agriculture as they pertain to both the farmer and the consumer. The film begins with graphic scenes that document the decline of the small American agricultural community. Then, concentrating on a typical small farm family, the Whitakers, who till 160 acres near Bushong, Kansas, the film begins examining the decline, and possible approaching extinction of the small farmer. The film discusses basic trouble-factors for small farmers; the large mechanized farm; government program to increase farm prices; farm economics--a national concern.
