Summary
BFI Summary - African sheep farm on the Karroo Plateau
Documentary News Letter synopsis: The first item shows a sheep farmer of the South African Karoo adopting modern methods of cultivation. Another sure-fire low angle shot for the cameraman has gone. Instead of the mule or oxen team on the skyline there comes once more the ubiquitous tractor.
