Turnip sowing on the farm, late August 2009.  The machinery here represents the latest in farm technology - everything is guided by satellite, leaving the driver little to attend to.

The turnips however are not satellite guided, so they are expected to remain where they are sown, unless of course the local fauna decide to eat them.   But that may well be why they have been sown, to attract the many hundred of walrus that migrate over Hertfordshire each autumn, following the swarms of wildebeest looking for the rich grazing lands of Central Bedfordshire.
