Rural revival to rescue Britain from agricultural crisis
In rural England the farm sector faces shortages and rising costs as Britain mobilizes for postwar recovery.

The piece highlights tensions over prices, imports, and wartime rationing as farmers, labourers, and markets adjust to austerity and reconstruction.
