This promotional film from the 1950s serves as a user's manual for New Holland Agriculture’s New Holland Model 800 Forage Harvester. The New Holland Model 800 Forage Harvester debuted in the mid-1950s and was marketed to be “the highest capacity forage harvester ever built” and was said to be New Holland's “greatest contribution to modern grassland farming methods.” The film, which disemeninates operation and service information on the machine, was intended for American farmers who had purchased the machinery as a tool that would ensure a quick and efficient seasonal harvest.
New Holland is an American agricultural machinery manufacturer and the original New Holland Machine Company was founded in 1895 in New Holland, Pennsylvania. The company was later acquired by Sperry Corporation in 1947 and then by Ford Motor Company in 1986 before being purchased by FiatAgri in 1991. New Holland agricultural products include tractors, combine harvesters, balers, forage harvesters, self-propelled sprayers, hayng tools, seeding equipment, hobby tractors, utility vehicles and implements, and grape harvesters. This film is historically significant because it reflects the period of large scale change and growth to the agriculture sector in the United States. While farmers had previously owned smaller plots of land, throughout the 1950s the average farm grew from 230 acres to about 290 acres and there was a need for new agriculture technology. The number of large-scale commercial farms continued to grow into the 1960s.
