  • Getting some field jobs done with the solis tractor it’s really handy on the log splitter, reusing tin that’s been in storage for 35 years, Carl gets the mowers on and drops all the grass it’s a monster crop wow so long! I move barbed wire and have a secret mowing competition with James next door but he doesn’t even realise!!!! Calves are coming on great but still no jerseys.
    in 2009 i had no experience of farming or the realities that came with it. That soon changed when I met my other half Roy, I had a job as a carer and in every spare moment threw myself into farming. I had only ever driven a Nissan Micra and had experience with horses, I learnt the hard way as nobody had the time to show me and soon after arriving I found myself mothering on calves to three quarter bred limmy cows. We spent every available moment on the farm between our day jobs. Fast forward to 2016 two children later we moved into our very own farm overlooking the northern Pennines, Laitha.
    we are in a transitional period at present and will finally be milking cows and making the final switch later this year, after years of planning and implementing infrastructure we will be milking 120 Jersey cows on two Lely robots. This will be a huge change and a steep learning curve
    I will be taking you all along for the ride so hit that subscribe button and see you every other day for farming vlogs.
    I am overjoyed to be a farmer. I feel so fortunate every day to wake up and do what I love and even better share it with the world and hope it inspires more young people from Preston to spread their wings and think outside the box the world doesn’t need more childcare workers or hairdressers it needs more farmers.

    The farming side of my family always said ;
    "Don't throw stuff away. It will be useful 1 day.
    Nothing is useless , you just haven't found a use for it, yet. "
    Wise words.

    Some nice grass there Charlotte , you should have a nice lot of silage off of there. I will agree don't paint the hut black , do it a light grey and it will reflect the heat. The calves look great , and your pigs are cute too.

  • @dahemac
    @dahemac 21 день назад

    You might want to put primer on the sheet-metal before painting it black. Particularly I think on galvanized, otherwise the paint will just come off. You could paint them white if what you want is to reflect heat.

    To be fair to Roy - geven the recent awareness of mental health issues in Farmers you probably shouldn't make fun of him calling Joe. Those few minutes (hrs) are probably doing both of them the world of good. Far too many people in Ag today don't hardly see a person to talk too. As OllyBlogs would say 'what percentage are you today?'. I bet Roy's is higher after talking to Joe.

    Charlotte, i totally disagree with the mayo mats lady- yea the mats provide the comfort for the cows, but, you need plenty of bedding, wether its chopped straw, sand, sawdust, shavings, to keep the cows clean, teats clean! One thing with robots, as opposed to a parlour with a person in, is that you dont know how clean the cows teats are- a manual parlour, straight away the milker will know. Honestly, i looked at the mattresses when you were scrapping out and thought the ones i saw were not v clean. You may get away with that sort of thing, for a while, but, it will catch up sooner or later mainly in high scc and mastitis cases, lactation to lactation. Im all too aware of the sales pitch the mat, mattress people say, but clean cows is absolute paramount. Look at the average cost of 1 mastitis treatment is, milk down the drain, drug costs, possible toxic cases like lemon head lisa bless her, continued high scc from the case, reduced yield, time spent to get the cow and treat her. All adds up, makes sawdust look cheap.

    Aren't you just a little late in mowing, or were you unable to mow sooner due to the weather? I think you should have mowed before the grass sprouts. You now have a lot of grass, but I don't think they will produce much milk from it. When the grass is gone, apply manure to the land and mow again in 6 weeks.

    Jaysus girl, before your contractor goes book him for about the 15th of may, please, it will save you a fortune in meal, we milk cows all winter and aim for at least 80 percent dmd this will give you maintenance and about 12 litres of milk which when you compare it to 65 dmd which will need a little bit of meal to cover maintenance don’t mind support any milk production. By the way I didn’t know that you spoke Irish, you kept that very quiet where did you learn? Or do you just like the sound of it and annoy poor little Irish girls into saying something ( this bloody thing won’t let me write anything in Irish it keeps automatically changing it into English) . I know I can go to settings and change it but I couldn’t be arsed because I am pretty confident that you wouldn’t understand a word of it! By the way I was in Appleby about 30 years ago at the fair and it was pretty rough then so I suspect it is seriously rough now. Regards from Ireland.

    Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for.
