During World War II, women in the Land Army in the UK were typically paid between £2 to £3 per week, depending on their age and experience. This pay was lower than what men received for similar agricultural work, reflecting broader wage disparities of the time. Additionally, some women received benefits such as housing and food allowances, which could supplement their income. Overall, the Women's Land Army played a crucial role in supporting food production during the war, despite the relatively low pay.
The Women's Land Army
They are not allowed due to them being women and they should only be in the kitchen.
British farm workers were called up for military service so women from all backgrounds joined the 'Land Army' and were deployed to various farms to help farmers to produce food so that the population didn't starve.
British women joined the Women's Land Army to take jobs as farmers to allow the men to join the armed forces. Some joined the Auxiliary Territorial Service of the Women's Royal Naval Service where they did things like ship maintenance, searchlight duty, radio and radar operations, and nursing. Some took their children to Canada away from the bombing in London.
In Britain during World Wars I and II, the Women's Land Army (or WLA) sent young women who volunteered to work on farms and dairies. The women basically took the places of men who worked on farms raising food, so the men could go to war. The informal name for members of the WLA was "land girls."
