Clarkson’s Farm

1
One of the most enjoyable and educational shows I’ve watched in a while. Hilarious characters who demonstrate how difficult and thankless farming can be.

Some things I’ve learned:
How a cultivator works
How exact tractor rows need to be
How heavy rain or weeks of drought affect the farming schedule
The many regulations farmers face — from registering each field with its crops, to sanitrary requirements, to land use regs
How necessary government subsidies for farming are, especially for less hearty crops

After a year of dawn to dusk tractoring, Season 1 ends with an unbelievably slim profit margin. Very worth a watch.
