Documentary shows fieldwork of three generations in Hebei

A group of young people labored in the countryside in Quzhou county, North China's Hebei province, planting grapes. But when they recorded data about their growth, they were soon disappointed when they found some of the grapes were affected by a downy mildew, before they enjoyed the final harvest of the remaining fruit.

The young people are students from the China Agricultural University, and they are not the only generation from the educational institution to have slugged it out in this area.

A TV documentary, University on the Field, premiered in Beijing on Sept 20, and it tells the story of three generations at the university who strived to promote agricultural development in Quzhou.
