Edited clips from BBC Documentary - Future of Food - in UK. It shows the influence of oil and struggle for food production giving an example of Cuba. Cuba received lot of oil from Soviet Russia but after collapse of Russis, its supplies decreased drastically and its mechanised agricultural practice could no longer sustain itself. Food production was affected. Government encouraged locally grown food and that food should be grown wherever possible. People had to make dramatic change to their diet - rice and bean every day. It also shows how food can be grown with manual labour and efficient use of resources. May be showing a future path that highly mechanised farming in UK will have to follow.
