Review of In the Tractor Seat: Women Farmers Take the Steering Wheel

"In the Tractor Seat" is part of the independent series, ?A World of Possibilities? whose objective is to bring new voices and views to the air. This piece is primarily in four segments each featuring an interview with a woman farmer. The interviewer has a relaxed interview style and a pleasant voice. The show could benefit from some tighter editing in order to eliminate some redundancy. Personally, I also feel that the interviewer could challenge the interviewee?s statements, which, in some cases, were more opinion than fact. In general, the program covers an interesting topic, raises some surprising statistics about the number of female farmers and challenges perceptions about woman farmers and the ?farmer?s wife.?
