Farmers of the Lizard

In early 2024, we were commissioned by Kestle Barton Gallery
to make a new series of portraits focusing on farming on the Lizard peninsula
in Cornwall.



In the following summer an exhibition of the Anthology of
Rural Life was held at the gallery. This included work from across Europe
alongside the new Lizard portraits.



The exhibition aims to develop a narrative around shifts in
rural life as well as to some of the complexities currently facing the
countryside. It also provides a recognition of the central place that farming
continues to play in the social and economic landscape of the Lizard.

	Sympathy for the Devil

These
photographs are part of a substantial photographic record of the
surroundings, and activities of two elderly, unmarried brothers who farm in
Cornwall.&#38;nbsp; They have spent their lives working
on the same land, however failing health and advancing age are undermining the
viable continuation of this farm. One brother manages the animals and oversees
the general farm work, whilst the other organises their food and medical
prescriptions. When not doing this, he spends much of his time listening to his
record collection. The Rolling Stones are by far his favourite. 



The historian
Patrick Joyce points to the fallacy of how, in contemporary society, we
‘aspire to join our internal lives, our personal subjectivities, with
‘nature’ so that we can be ‘at one’ with it’. &#38;nbsp;As he says, ‘this is a universe
that in the present takes the sentimental view of nature as alternatively a
garden or a wilderness’.  However, those
born into traditional agricultural cultures may understand things differently.

	Farmers of the Lizard

In early 2024 the ARL project was commissioned by the Kestle Barton Gallery to make a new series of portraits focusing on farming on the Lizard peninsula in Cornwall.

A diverse range of farmers and farming families on the Lizard were approached and photographed. &#38;nbsp;These included both large and small producers and people relatively new to the region as well as those whose families have worked the same land for five, or even six, generations.
Whilst dairy farming is the dominant form of farming on the Lizard there are numerous examples of emerging patterns of diversification. These are clearly manifest in initiatives such as the growth of regenerative and organic models, shifts from crop production to horticulture and in the subsidising of farming through tourism and farm shops. &#38;nbsp;

The work was exhibited at Kestle Barton during the summer of 2024, the following text was produced to accompany that exhibition:


. .
In our conversations with numerous farmers on the Lizard, there are clearly shared narratives with commentaries heard in other European sites. These include the capacity to sustain economic viability in respect to complex challenges emerging from economics, legislation, technologies, and climate change. There is also either a pragmatic embrace of contemporary multi-national agri-business models, or a scepticism born from the necessity of the vast capital outlay and loss of autonomy associated with these. Related to this is the concomitant increase in the size and scale of individual farms. We also see emerging patterns of diversification as within many of the other farming communities where we’ve worked. In the Lizard these are clearly manifest in initiatives such as the growth of regenerative and organic modes of farming, shifts from crop production to horticulture and in the subsidising of farming through tourism and farm shops. Significantly we encountered migrant workers highly embedded within the rural economy; central Europeans (Poles, Lithuanians, and Latvians) work the fields of the Lizard as Ukrainians do in Poland and people from Türkmenistan in Turkey.
We asked numerous families how they foresaw the next ten years of farming on the Lizard and the responses were intriguingly diverse. Speculations on whether the land will continue to be agriculturally productive or move further towards widespread adoption of governmentally driven environmental schemes were voiced. There is an uncertainty in the possibility of seeing, as someone put it, ‘trees planted where crops once thrived, land ‘rewilded’ where animals used to graze’. Others mentioned that they saw the future in terms of a transition towards the ‘natural potential’ of the land to generate profitability, with a wider range of crops in the rotation and a higher focus on soil management. A steadfast belief that smaller family run farms will ‘weather the storm’ runs parallel with the potential increased involvement of large organisations, such as the National Trust, Natural England and Cornwall Wildlife Trust. Whilst everyone acknowledged the numerous problems facing contemporary farming, the overwhelming responses we received were optimistic in tone, even when contradictory in viewpoint.
What has been clear to us, however, is the profound dedication felt by people to the land as well as to the region itself. People told us that their families have been on the same farms for five, six or even more generations, and networks of relationships and connections fostered through generations of inter-family marriages stretch web-like across the peninsula.

	DOĞU TRAKYA




















During February 2024 Robins and Udy photographed in Eastern Thrace, Turkey, a European edgeland situated between the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara and connected by the Bosporus Strait, forming one of the continental boundaries between Europe and Asia.
They worked closely with Ammar Kiliç an academic from the Sociology Department of Namik Kemel University in Tekirdağ. Ammar provided introductions to many individuals within the small communities scattered through the Süleymanpaşa district, an important area of extensive and varied agricultural production and export. 

As is the case in most of the regions the ARL project has visited, there is the increasing domination over agricultural production and rural economies by international agribusiness. It was pointed out that even though a farm might be relatively small in scale, its agricultural production is fundamentally controlled by what is, in essence, an agropoly. &#38;nbsp;Nonetheless, there were examples of more progressive ventures, including a farmer working with specialists to explore new strains of extreme weather-resistant cereal crops in recognition of the effects of climate change. And a woman who has returned to her family’s land and is attempting to develop an organic and regenerative approach to farming.

	HAJDÚ-BIHAR // ÉSZAK-ALFÖLD

In July 2023 Robins and Udy worked in the Northern Great Plain region of Hungary, focusing on the area around Debrecen and the town of&#38;nbsp; Hortobágy. 


The area sits on and around the Hungarian steppe (or puszta),&#38;nbsp;with Hortobágy being the key focus for this landscape. This is a UNESCO-protected site and National Park which retains patterns of traditional pastoral farming. As the UNESCO website explains: 


The Puszta, represented by the Hortobágy National Park, is a complex mosaic of natural grasslands, loess ridges, alkaline pastures, meadows and smaller and larger wetlands (mostly marshes), which has presented ideal conditions for pastoralism since prehistoric times and which existed before the appearance of large animal-breeding cultures.


Today the region is also economically important as an international tourist destination, which draws upon notions of Hungarian national identity through referencing the legacy of horse husbandry and nomadic cultures that once existed across the puszta.

	THE BLIND FARMER

Throughout 2021 our focus shifted to a single family-run farm. The grandfather of the current farmer had to retire when his eyesight failed, eventually leading to blindness. His grandson described how he himself awoke from a blindness in regard to what he considers to be the harmful, agribusiness orientated practices of contemporary food production and soil management.



Currently the farm recorded here has
been developing a new, and potentially progressive approach through an almost
total reduction in chemical, hormone and pesticide use, allied to new models of
promoting better soil health. There is also a shift in emphasis from a regional
network of pork production toward a more local one. 



Whilst there is a growing awareness of this
approach within other sectors, with a focus on models of localised and environmentally
friendly production, it is substantially out of step with the dominant model of
industrialised global food farming systems.



With policy changes coming into place
that would see farms focus on the re-wilding, this document represents not only
a turning point in the lives of one family, but a symbol of the dilemmas that
will face all agriculture in the coming years.

	MERIDEN

In 2020 we were comissioned by GRAIN to produce work on the Rural areas of the West Midlands in the UK. &#38;nbsp;For this, we focussed on Meriden, a place historically thought of as the centre point of England. The village of Meriden sits in what is known as the ‘Meriden Gap’ –&#38;nbsp; a roughly 10 square mile radius of mostly rural, pastoral and agricultural green belt, sheltering in what is now the Metropolitan Borough of Solihull.&#38;nbsp; The notion of it as the&#38;nbsp; ‘centre of England’ is manifest in its roadside place name, in the plaque on an ancient cross standing on the village green as well as in the ‘Heart of England Social Club’,&#38;nbsp; ‘Heart of England Conference and Events Centre’, ‘Heart of England Aeromodelling Club’and so forth. Meriden then, the self-proclaimed navel of England, provides a microcosm of the various social, economic and political histories of contemporary English rurality.
