As a result of the mechanical handling techniques that continued to spread and grow in sophistication during the twentieth century, hand tools are scarcely used at all in modern agriculture.

A whole range of tools, once familiar to the farmworker, has gradually become obsolete; in appearance, these tools varied from crude, locally made implements, often reflecting a regional design, through to the highly finished edge tools produced by specialist manufacturers.

Although they are no longer used, interest in them has steadily grown since the Second World War. This book describes these tools and the farming processes they performed in the period before the general dominance of the tractor and combine harvester.
