Loading hay onto a cow-drawn cart, 1937

A ladder cart stands in the meadow, harnessed to two spotted cows; a man in shirtsleeves forks hay beside it and a second joins him, while behind them the wooded hillside rises steeply. From a lower angle, against the sky and a line of fir trees, a woman stands on top of the growing load and a man below hands up the hay. Such farms, too small for machines, still made up the greater part of German agriculture, which the Reich Food Estate under Walther Darré praised as the source of the nation's blood.
