Please tell mew what the main idea of the text is. Britain is now a highly industrialized country and there are only 238,000 farms in the UK. More and more farmersleave the land because they can not earn enough money to survive. Only large farms are economic and because of thismost British farm are big. They usually grow cereals in the east of England and raise sheep and cowsin the north ofEngland and Scotland. The small family farms often have to earn more money by offering bed and breakfastaccommodation to tourists. Farming methods in Britain have also changed. Fields used to be quite small, divided by hedges which weresometimes a thousand years old and full of wild flowers and birds. Many hedges were pulled up to allow farmers to usemordern machinery. Now most fields in England are large by European standards.
