When was this out of interest? And why did you do it?
My back-of-an-envelope maths tells me your family worked for approximately £2 per hour, though I imagine if this was a few decades ago that would be worth a lot more.

I think your math is skewed to a higher end because there potato is (and probably was) significantly cheaper than in US or EU (today it is ~4 times cheaper, 0.7$/kg).
Even though, considering todays mean salary there (5$/hr), 2$/hr is not that bad for such job...
Where in the world was this?
