TODAY IS: The first day of National Agriculture Week, which runs through March 24, to honor America's farmers and educate Americans about the U.S. agricultural system (see agday.org for more info). The 1990 drama THE FIELD, based on Irish writer John B. Keane's play, demonstrates how important land is to the born farmer, no matter his nationality: Richard Harris battles to retain the rocky Irish field he has worked his entire life, with deadly consequences.
