Barley Threshing Days

Barley Threshing Days explores the world of traditional barley harvesting and its deep roots in rural society. More than a simple agricultural task, barley harvesting shaped economic structures, social hierarchies, and cultural traditions within village life. The book reveals that traditional methods were not just about crop yields, but also about fostering communal identity, where harvest festivals and rituals reinforced social bonds.

The book traces the evolution of harvesting methods, from hand-pulling to the adoption of threshing machines, examining the impact on labor practices and social relationships. For example, the introduction of new agricultural technology significantly altered traditional labor practices, changing how rural communities functioned.

Beginning with an introduction to barley cultivation, the book progresses to explore social structures, labor practices, cultural traditions, and the impact of mechanization, offering a comprehensive view of this vital aspect of agricultural history. Drawing on historical manuals, oral histories, and archival photographs, Barley Threshing Days adopts a narrative non-fiction approach, blending rigorous research with engaging storytelling.

It is intended for those interested in understanding the complex relationship between human labor, agricultural technology, and the evolving social fabric of rural communities, making it valuable for anyone seeking to understand the cultural traditions of rural communities.
