- 2020 is proving to be challenging but a much better year for getting next year's crops in the ground. This video is a round up of what has been going on over the past few weeks and what happens next on Harry's Farm.
I'm a car guy, but Harry's Farm is becomming more interesting than Harry's Garage to me.
I must be getting older.
Thanks for both channels Harry!
Who needs a Zonda when you can talk about Heifers and Pre-emergents.
Robert, I am with you. No matter how old one gets love leaning something new. Cars are no longer be be all and end all. Jesus what’s happening to me. Need an adrenaline shot. Nurburgring after lockdown anyone?
Cars don't feed you.
I didn't know he had a garage...
I know what you mean - he's bit like May - could make anything interesting!
I love this channel...so informative and Harry is such a great, relaxed communicator.
Harry’s Farm - the RUclips channel you never thought you needed until you watched it
Love these videos now I've discovered them. Have no idea about farming but as a countryside walker (and in the Cotswolds too) I'm learning a lot.
Thank you so much for these videos. Working the land is so fundamental to human life that we all need to be more aware of the difficulties and trials it involves. Fabulous.
Such an up lifting video. To see Harry so happy with how things are going and a positive outlook for 2021. Thank you Harry, it was a joy to watch. Are you going to be selling only sloe gin
of course hes happy he has the easiest job in the world lol and acres to call his own
Be interesting to hear what the council man says about the bridge
Yes, I'd really like to see an update on that and what they do to it (if anything)
The council man should mind his own business
These videos are better than anything on countryfile
Just want to give big thumbs up from Yorkshire. Work for Farmstar LTD (a Case IH Dealership) demonstrating all our machines. And your episodes are just brilliantly full of great information, for people completely new to farming, as well as us who are fully involved in our industry.
Thank you Harry!
I like the farm visits especially as you explain what is happening, like the cultivation’s etc. it’s a nice change from the usual stuff on RUclips
There's nothing quite so relaxing as looking at a herd of contented cattle. On my parents' farm, the dairy cows used to graze on an area that was once a park for the country house of a vast farming estate and it was one of the most picturesque views you could imagine to see them amongst the trees on gently rolling grassland. Cheers, from New Zealand.
I’m a fisherman and I love watching and learning all about your farming Harry, first class content... you almost work half as hard as we do. 😄
Harry you are a good teacher enjoy listening to you Maurice Ireland
You are doing more for the public understanding of farming than any government to date!
Both channels are so interesting and informative. Thanks Harry
Just subscribed to the farm. What a diverse life people lead - humans can be brilliant!
Love your videos, such a natural presenter, wont be long before your on Country File
Harry mix sloe gin with damson gin we call ( damsloe ) it’s excellent 🍷, love the update on the farm cheers 🚜👍
A lovely time of year and I hope it all goes well. I don't quite fully understand the bridleway issue. Would be good if you could revisit this on a later video.
Harry's farm is the best!
It has been drastically wet until yesterday [5thNov] here in West Wales. What a contrast! I mean, it's not THAT far from Ceredigion to the Cotswolds but it looks more like a world apart. Most of my fields are now too wet to walk on and the quad bike even makes a mess.
you must be used to wales being wet.
@@VanderlyndenJengold
I'm on the sunny West coast and most of the rain goes over my top and comes down inland, particularly in the hills. Having said that, it is much wetter almost consistently than from the Cotswolds over to Dover and up the East coast.
There is also different soil and land to consider. Whether it is relatively free draining, sandy, silty, clay, stony, and whether there are a plethora of springs around and whether the land is drained or not. Farming has so many variables and depends so much on the weather, most people have no idea about it.
@@hedydd2 I used to go on holiday as a child as my grandparents had a caravan in Tywyn. We used to joke about the rain as it was quite boring when it forced us to stay indoors. I also remember glorious sunny days and getting sunburn.
@@VanderlyndenJengold
I hardly ever visit Tywyn but it so happens I was there with friends a week or two before the Welsh lockdown, maybe a month ago. Glorious sunshine and very few people around due to you know what. Went down from Talyllyn, stopping for a coffee at the pub at the end of the lake, and turned right at Abergynolwyn through the mountains and came back via Aberdyfi to Machynlleth. Absolutely stunning scenery around there.
@@hedydd2 Talyllyn of the railway fame? I was last in the Tywyn region in the mid 1980s. I remember my little brother getting a bath in the sink so it was around then. My grandad was in the Royal Engineers and he always showed us the Bailey Bridge that was still standing down there. Looking back I loved it yet those rainy days... There was also a place that did honey ice cream, that was delicious, hope it's still going.
Im an old city boy (Liverpool) but now live in in a nice sleepy village surrounded by arable farms and horse paddocks. I love the countryside and watching Harrys farming channel. Always like to learn what happens on a farm. Our village paper has a regular section with updates from the local farmer too. (Harrys car channel is pretty fantastic too!!).
Fantastic video. Nice to get an update. Great field names. It'll be interesting to see how the crops deal with weather over the coming month.
Another excellent video. As a keen walker, often in the Cotswolds, its great to know what I’m walking on and what I’m looking at. Would love to see a tour of your farm buildings and machinery. And I believe your house is a bit ‘eco’. Good to see that too. Obviously not too intrusively.
So glad to hear things going well on the farm. Good to see an uplifting video with positive news 👍 Loving the thought of the young cattle doing ‘donuts’ in the field 😆
Absolutely brilliant I love it
Well done for getting the pre emergence's on! We didn't quite manage it with the rain coming in quicker than expected! Crops looking good!
Looking good. Cows doing doughnuts? Brilliant
We want to see the cows doing donuts 😀
Makes a change from pancakes.
Very informative video again. Great work, great video. All the best pal.
You are such a lucid and cogent communicator. It is a pleasure and privilege for me to watch, listen and learn; so pleased there are far more positives to cheer you up. Is it possible to identify your kinds of earthworm, their distribution and densities and compare that with some ideal measure? I understand they are key to soil bio-diversity and natural fertility.
Love these videos, Harry thank you and your team for the excellent production
Great video as always Harry, please keep all your subscribers updated as to how you got on with the council re the Bridle Path bridge.
Thank you Harry, great video as per usual, looking forward to seeing where the cattle are housed, and what a lovely little dog, best wishes.
Thank you for a walk round the fields with you, it would be nice to know what the council have to say please keep us informed. All the best stay safe Wayne.
Hopefully a good yield next year then fingers crossed. Nice to see you all done nice and early now.
Nice one Harry 👍
Good luck with the OSR Harry and let’s hope the price stays up. Should do given the lower acreage being planted. V interested to see those guys planting OSR with various companion crops. Loving your work.
Especially loved the tour of the farm and the talk about the bridge.
I love your farm updates, I watch Welker Farms out in Northern Montana as well and they do the same things as you at more or less the same time just on a different scale.
I love these videos. In these uncertain times they're like 15 minutes of meditation.
Always look forward to see your videos of whats happening on the farm. So glad the fields are looking better for you 👍🚜
It's a pleasing irony that hearing Harry discuss 'drilling' should not be 'boring'. :-)
Bovine kids having fun skidding down the hills! 😄 ❤️ Well fancy that!
Great video Harry , isn’t nice to have crops in the ground this autumn, ours went in ok ish , not the prettiest of conditions but the crops look good now , couldn’t get all the pre m’s done , but we will take what we have compared to last year . Still gonna try to get another 80 acres before Christmas
A good news broadcast, thanks, we need it.
Thanks Harry well done you jolly interesting as ever grazie Mille ciao
Another brilliant video Harry thank you👍
I love these videos so much! The best time of my working life was spent on a farm in the Yorkshire moors. I’d love to get back on a farm one day!
Lovely Jubbly, all going well down on the farm, I remember well the flooding you had.
I walk a great deal in the countryside and find that farmers have many different approaches to rights of way, ploughing a footpath over is very irritating for a walker, some provide alternative routes that aren’t ploughed. I would love to hear your views on this Harry.
Harry. Would love to know your thoughts on Gentleman Clarkson's farming attempts but I guess we will never know. You have a gift as a communicator, Sir. Well done
Thanks Harry. Great content from this channel
Hi Harry nice to see your crops coming on well as to the wheat field were the crop didn't get away on the headlong is it possible that before you till the field when the ground is a lot drier to subsoil I always found this helped when we had wet spots in our corn fields. All the best
Well done Harry , 2020 hasn’t been a bad year for your farm 👍🏻
Another very interesting video, thanks very much Harry 👍
Bridge looks pretty good to me. I'm lucky to live quite close to you. We've had fantastic November weather for the last couple of days
The only guy who can make a brown corduroy top look cool 👌
As a past horse owner I would be interested to hear the outcome of the bridle path issue. We had a bridge on one of our bridle paths which fell into disrepair far worse than yours and which in the end was taken down because the horses liked to walk in the water as it was good exercise for them and if it got deeper then swimming was an even better form of exercise for them! Looking at your bridge which looks in good repair I wonder why it was felt necessary to repair it if indeed it required repair.
As to the rest of the video another factual and interesting update for which many thanks. Regards, Chris
Thank you for the update Harry, keep 'em coming!
Going well Harry, love learning from these videos... Thank you.
So
Great video. Love learning about this. Would love to see some hedge row work!
Harry you are a brilliant presenter, fancy taking over from the muppets on TG. Perhaps you can get some demo tractors and other farm machinery to review, also the old vintage stuff is interesting. Keep them coming, cheers.
In your next farm video could you update us re the bridle way bridge, please? I find anything to do with rights of way fascinating. Thanks
Brilliant ... perfect start to the weekend !!
Great update Harry.
Thanks for the update
Love the videos Harry 👍 thanks for taking the time to make them 👍
Lovely as always, 👌👍
Very much enjoyed the video. I've just uploaded one of the wheat on my allotment. I'd appreciate any advice on how to keep it alive!
Thanks Harry for another great farm video update, the wheat & the oil seed rape, looking good, pity you got that wet poggy corner, can't you put any type of drainage piping in there?
But you still doing a great job & keep it up... 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Today's thought: do cows oversteer or understeer? 🤔
Definitely uddersteer 😉
@@stuartaharris ffs, I came to say that 😂
Depends if you're in Texas I guess!
Depends how they look from behind, surely? Or is it just bullocks?
Thanks for this - obviously calves don’t have ABS brakes 🙂. Seriously really educational and absolutely fascinating even for someone lucky enough to live in similar countryside. Love your dog as well - reminds me of my Westies - though better behaved - mine would be covered in mud and soaking wet after 5 minutes in the fields! 🤣
Another great video Harry. Love the channel 👍
Thank you Harry.
I can listen Harry talking just about anything, got no interest in farming but love this channel too🤣
I'm a farmer and I think Harry should get a TV role!
Very interesting indeed
I've had a long couple of weeks, and it was an absolute joy to see this video appearing on a Friday afternoon. Keep up the good work, Harry. Excellent stuff! It makes me want to buy some Harry's Farm swag. Will there be any?
The first image looks like a David Hockney landscape with the trees
Hi Harry, love the channel. Could you explain the use (or not) or the 'smelly' fertilisers, what we used to think was pig shit but these days I believe is possibly human shit! I live in rural Hertfordshire and your videos are giving me lots of insight into the processes I see going on around me.
Always a joy to watch. Surprising really, since I have no farming in my UK family. It is back to nature, although a very hi-tech nature. Glad to see your thumb nail is improving. They are such beautiful cattle. Who is behind the camera ? All the best,
Nic
Lanark, Ontario, Canada.
Hi from near the original Lanark. Scotland. 👍🏼
@@martinmillar8447 We plan to get to the real Lanark one day.
Going to be a proper yield this next year, but Harry, do you test the rainwater to see what chemicals and metal elements are in it? I think you should.
If your feeling out of work Harry,come come some ironing and hoovering please
Something that would be interesting is a comparison between arable farming in the UK and the US. Maybe a podcast style video with @Millennial Farmer
Thanks Harry!
I don't think farm work is ever done. As you said it's time to fix fences etc... and back to the cars too 😀
Great vid Harry! Thanks mate!
Harry the Happy Farmer .. it's very nice to see :)
Love these videos! Please keep it up!!
Lovely... Help a townie - how does a brook disappear...? Lowering water table...?
2 questions - if you're killing slugs then where are these new slugs coming from? the margins? outside? 2nd question - can't you put some muck on you soil and improve the fertility and drainage?
Harry can you do a video about no-till regenerative farming? What problems can you see with it?
I love the way all your fields have names, logical I suppose but are these names past on from owner to owner over the years or is it more customary when a new land owner arrives for a new set of names to be christened? You provide such a detailed and interesting insight into arable farming I look forward to Harry's Farm as much as Harry's garage!
Fascinating comme d’habitude .
10/10 excellent viewing.
Harry. Great video as are all your videos. Why do so many farmers in Ox7 area cut their hedges now when they appear full of berries for the wildlife?
You cannot cut hedges between 1st March - 1st September it's an Eu law due to nesting birds
@@johnwelburn9966 well its simply being ignored out in West Oxfordshire. A farmer in my village just removed a whole line of hedges to make his 2 fields one.
Could we have a farm tour (buildings and machinery etc) love the content. If the bridge is a bridleway is it legal route even for a vehicle?
I don't think Harry answers questions on here, but maybe someone else knows.
A lot of farmers no longer deep plough, just planting straight back into the stubble.
Is it that deep ploughing is too expensive on fuel ? Isn't there an advantage in bringing
nutrients back up to the surface ? Maybe it's cheaper just to add new fertilizers ?
I think its to do with soil erosion, trying to keep both the quality and quantity of the soil high.
Best farming channel
More about the cows in future videos please.
