From the field to the table, this DVD follows the journey of food produced on a modern, "big ag" farm to illustrate how far farming has come from its traditional roots. From the controversial use of genetically engineered seeds to the machines that can do more work in a day than an army of workers could accomplish in a week, this video examines the technological tools that have propelled the industry to a crossroads of declining returns, higher yields and the demise of family farms
