Rubber and fruit harvesting operations at Fordlândia facility built by Ford Motor Company in Brazil, to supply rubber to Ford manufacturing facilites. View of rubber trees. Brazilian people walk on a dirt road lined with rubber trees. Orange trees in a row. Workers carry canvas bags. They climb ladders beside the trees and pluck fruits. The workers pick fruits from the ground. Banana trees in rows. Rubber tree workers pour harvested rubber tree latex from pails in to a large collection can. A man sprays insecticide (possibly DDT) in a swampy area to control insect population. (Other clips on this same reel show verified scenes of the Fordlandia community built by Ford Motor Company in Brazil. The latex and fruit collection seen in this clip is likely on lands connected to Fordlandia. Data accompanying this reel of film gives a date of 1940, but this may be from circa 1934 near the time that Fordlandia operations stopped and Belterra operations began).
