Plot

Donald Duck works as a farmer on a farm. He is disturbed by a fly when he tries to milk his cow Clementine.

Voice cast

• Donald Duck: Clarence Nash

Music

The cartoon takes its title from the children's song "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" that Donald sings while feeding his animals. Later on, while milking Clementine, Donald sings also the American folk ballad "Oh My Darling, Clementine".

In addition, "Turkey in the Straw" is used as background music, as in Steamboat Willie and The Band Concert.

Legacy

The short was released on May 18, 2004, on Walt Disney Treasures: The Chronological Donald, Volume One: 1934-1941.[2]
