Tractor
Tractors are as closely associated with farming as hay bales in fields - and it's easy to imagine why. For most farmers, they're absolutely essential and help them perform a variety of tasks.

All about dairy farming
We drink around 5 billion litres of milk in Britain each year - the equivalent of 2,000 Olympic-size swimming pools or enough to drink a glass of milk every day for 54 million years.
