Presented as part of The Passion Machine's Songs of The Reaper programme. Ghost Acreage at Vixen Time was part of Block Three, which also included 'Love Machines' by Johnny Hanrahan, and 'Dectire' by John McArdle (both listed separately).
Most of the nations in the industrialised world depend on importing food from abroad, that is, they depend on exploiting 'ghost acres' abroad to grow their agricultural inputs and food. This plays explores mankind's relationship with the land as a young farmer and his wife struggle against the loss of a pastoral vision and its practical adjuncts.
