Check out exactly how much money Jeremy made from farming by the end of the year 👀 ruclips.net/video/yInLnC2mBXI/видео.html
£112
but ask a fisher man how much he have left after Brexshit!
I'd like to know if you even know when season 2 will be ready...
we are nearly in 2023...
@@Howiedewitt123 Plus a few million from Amazon for the series
He broke even in his first year while buying most of the equipment new (many of it completely oversized for the job) and investing into the construction of the new shop and various other hobbies despise being advised they won't make much money but take time and money.
Considering all his investments that won't be there in the following year break even is actually impressive
Clarkson's Farm has done so much to highlight the trials and tribulations everyday farmers face day to day. Bravo Jeremy, possibly the most impactful series you've ever done.
and British farmers have it easy compared to those on the continent...
@@jwenting explain please
@@jorawarsingh2595 farmers in the Netherlands and Germany are facing crippling EU regulations that are making it utterly impossible to keep their business going.
And from next year they're facing forced closures, having their business confiscated.
Other EU countries are going the same way, as is Canada.
@@jwentingin the uk they’ve introduced new rules to start incentivising farmers ti plant hedge rows and wild flowers.
@@Boo-pv4hn that's better than kicking them off their land with next to no compensation and then giving it to project developers to build industrial estates and housing projects.
I’ve always respected farmers but watching this and seeing how much can go wrong. I appreciate even more than they’d ever know
I used to work on a farm. They have insurance for these eventualities. Or rather, you can buy that insurance for crop failure. But it was interesting nonetheless
@@silverismoney and the subsidies
I'm sure many are much more capable.
The ban on neonic's is one thing that can be agreed on, is a good thing. They are non species specific. Even Bee's who pollinate the crops can be affected and killed off. Killing off a beetle with neonic's, and then killing off the pollinators means next year you have less bee's to bring the fruit growth on.
This is why farming needs additional R&D support. These problems can be fixed with a chemical, that creates a detrimental knock on effect down the line that can be cumulative. There are other solutions, but those solutions have consequences as well. It's all about balancing the systems to get what you need out of it without buggering up the systems ability to produce as much next year... And mother nature is always giving a boon, or a hinderance to that goal that you have to be knowledgeable of in how to work around the problem.
Someone should make a compilation of Jeremy’s absolute dismay throughout the first season of this show. It would be legendary!
From all the govement subsadies he gets not to grow any crops its enough to keep him going
remember when he took the sheep for slaughter. Came back to find them gone. Still ate the mutton tho'🤣
I love his arrow straight planting skills with the tractor
Now he has blown his career away
@@oscarosullivan4513 well not really, he said something a bit extreme, because he was angry at someone, and he was just speaking his mind, but ooh no, apparently saying someone should have faeces thrown at them is misogynistic and racist, these people saying that should go and ask a Ukrainian man who has been shot fighting for his freedom if he cares, they should ask a Syrian Child who’s home has been blown up do they care, they should ask a starving family in Somalia suffering the worst drought in decades do they care, honestly I’m sick of this bullshit of getting offended at something that pales in comparison to true racism and misogyny, it’s stupid, it’s useless, it doesn’t benefit humanity in anyway and it draws attention from the real issues going on in the world. Yes he shouldn’t have said it but it wasn’t “Misogynistic” or “Racist” it was just someone saying something publicly they should of kept to themselves and now it has the chance to ruin their career. Also Jeremy is known for exaggerating his hate over things like in the Grand Tour. Anyone who is fighting over this should shut up and go do something that benefits society. Also I’m not agreeing with Clarkson, he shouldn’t of said those things it was wrong but the reaction has been too extreme. Also Meghan could of easily fired back with some thing like: I hate Jeremy Clarkson, I hate him more than I hate Kanye West, I dream of him being hung naked publicly in the middle of London with it being broadcast live and his naked dead body dragged around the roads of England by a Toyota Prius, and it would be bad yes but we can’t stop either of them because that’s free speech. Yes it’s bad and extreme, but you can ignore it or fire back. We need to Cop-on as a society and tackle real racism, and really misogyny, not some random bullshit a TV host said in an article. Rant finished.
This series was probably the most important series that Clarkson has ever done.
Important because he shows how one industry has problems? All industries have problems. If you think these are real issues stop using fossil fuels and contributing to climate change.
@@bryannonya9769 he still showed it… bringing attention to one issue is not taking away from another
Clarkson has never produced an "important series". He simply churns out low-brow product to keep the public misinformed. He has spent much of the last 20 years encouraging the use of the Internal Combustion Engine, and in recent years producing blatant misinformation to discourage the use of alternatives, and is now complaining that his current project Hobby Farm is affected by changing weather patterns etc Which Is The Result Of Global Warming ie the over-use of Fossil Fuels.
@@bryannonya9769 Running out of farmers means running out of food and that to me is a much bigger issue than most other industries have. Please tell me of the other issues other than water, energy, and healthcare because all 4 are on the same level of importance to survive.
@@bryannonya9769 That's a very short sighted view on a very big problem. Yes, all industries have problems. There are however industries that have a much bigger impact on society than others, food industry being pretty high on that list. Also not all problems he showed are related to climate change.
Heartbreaking for the farmers who rely on the crops as their livelihoods.
Clarkson and Kaleb showed it quite well. You can't live on crops alone. You need to do a lot of other stuff on the side, sheep, chicken, have a shop, do construction work etc,
Every penny you find on the ground you have to scrape up and when you do you have to dig in the ground hoping you find another penny. We complain about the price of food now, we should be happy it's as cheap as it is.
@@Vollification if that's the calibre of modern farming , yes, we should all be thankful.
There’s no money in farming unless in Europe which you get tractors and everything for half price etc
@@bekabeka71 If there where no money in farming no one would do it, but i get your point
@@Vollification is the smaller farmers suffering, the agro-buisnessmen operating mega farms are doing quite nicely
I liked Clarksons farm so much as much he fumbled through doing the series it gave so much exposure to what Farmers have to do and go through for their crops. They are so taken for granted for such vital role in our society
Before this series I didn't realise how much the weather affects farmers, the fact the government don't seem to care either. We need to back our farmers
"We've just got to work within the rules" is the British national motto.
I just love Charlie, he's superb. The deadpan delivery of bad news!
No fluffing around. Just delivers the info as ordered. I want my advisors to be exactly like that.
Puffter likes other pufter. It is so natural
I work in sales for a company and our head of accounting who is also british reminds me so much of "cheerful charlie" Lmfao
From the viewpoint of highlighting to the general population the kinds of problems that farmers have to deal with, year in, year out, I don't think Clarkson could have chosen a *better* time to start farming.
The facts he’s in disbelief is just pure comedy 😂😂
Never mind Jezza, I spent 2 weeks at the campsite next to your farm shop summer ‘22 and bought 6 bottles of your cow juice! I mean, I must have practically kept you afloat this year. Will be back summer of ‘23 to help you out again mate 👍🏻😁🐄🥛
Hoping that if Jeremy can make it through this then hopefully when the weather gets better, he'll be a stronger farmer for it.
This is from the 1st Season which was released in 2021, which means it was filmed in 2020 or earlier. They are probably working on getting Season 2 released.
@@remyllebeau77 i think it will launch in februari, season 2
Yes he will, he's rich.
@@remyllebeau77 Well haven't seen/heard anything about him moving on from farming, so must be on the up.
@@ArbathSahadewa True, true. Unless you either inherited it, were rich or were good at attracting investment then one would expect it'd be almost impossible to start from scratch in farming.
I have learned so much about farmers and farming, where my food comes from and the difficulties faced by those who get it to me. Even though I'm in the USA farmers I'm sure face many of the same struggles against weather, pests and government. I have a new and immense appreciation for farmers and what they need to do to survive under pressure to sell out to factory farm corporations that can swallow losses they can't
The ability of the government to fvck you sideways is eye watering.
If Jeremy’s been fired, I’ll be cancelling my prime video subscription
If that is the case, the trio can take their shows to other non-woke streaming services. They bring in massive viewership and profit, I refuse to believe this is the end .
Luckily for us, amazon will still publish seasons 2 and 3, but no more will be produced
👍👍
With you.
You are in luck. S2 trailer dropped.
This a Eye Opener for many the hardships of being a Farmer.
I have watched clarkson for years and he has had me in stitches more times than I can remember. It saddens me to see him have to deal with the harsh realities of life. Keep in there old boy better days to come and may be a few shitty ones, but hey ho that is life.
@Santiago Oehler Toca Correct, it is a Hobby Farm there for the purposes of producing 'product' for the TV company. Any smart farmer is moving away from the sort of production portrayed on this film set.
@Alf Noakes but its a good tool to bash the eu, so it's gotta be done.. you know, for sovereignty or some 5hit
@@alfnoakes392 Hobby farm or not, it's doing good to highlight what farmers have to contend with.
I was waiting for a John Lennon joke when he said The EU won't let me kill the Beetle!
Absolutely in love with this wholesome show
It’s the only realistic reality show nowadays
The beetle still hounding Clarkson - since top gear to grand tour to Clarkson's farm.
3:29 Shotgun shells on the table? Must have been a really bad flood haha
It was the last resort😮
Thx for teaching us how hard is to be a Farmer 💜
This is horrific !! But his efforts and the things he highlights . Are a big awakening
Old Top gear and the grand tour was truly a fantastic era of television entertainment
The trio and all their fantastic adventures over the last 20 odd years will be missed!
Mother Nature went Exodus on his farm lol 😂
Keep Jeremy ,love him ,best show ever 👏👏👏 it’s fab 🤗🤗🤗🍀
Had the pleasure of visiting diddly squat in the summer for a nice pint of hawkstone. What a beautiful part of the country
Last time I lost a 4 grand crop it was because of west Midlands police
The bane of farming is needing rain where it isn't, and needing sun where it isn't
I really enjoyed the series. As I grew up around farms and worked on them as a teenager it's something i've always wanted to do myself but, well, you need several million £ to be able to do it now. But good for him. He looked like he enjoyed a lot of it, and at least he wasn't making stupid selfies of himself and being an "influencer". I look forward to season 2!
No Clarkson no need for prime
I was just at his farm last week. Flew 7,000 miles to see it. Cant wait for season 3. I got the milk bottle and a tote bag.
It's very brave/hard being a farmer, hard bloody work I wish all the best
Luv ya Clarkson. Legend!
This show should be compulsory in all secondary schools .
@@Balletified almost in every single country agriculture is dying cuz of stupid politics and same people moaning about we dont have enough food
Wont make any difference they'll still believe milk comes from Tesco's; cows only exists as agricultural lawn mowers and bread is grown on the breadfruit tree.
Thank you Mr. Clarkson for this show. At least now the politicians will understand what challenges farmers undergo. Let's save our farmers
The joys of organic farming 😂🤣😂
Rip good thing i only used the free prime month no need now it this and the grand tour gets canceled.
It shows how hard the farming game is
Seen season 2 WOW I want season 3 NOW Amazon
Poor Clark's farm maybe he should try to farm in Pretoria in South Africa the threats of floods are relatively low but they like to steal cabbage here etcetera.
It would be great to see if the Johnson and sue fungal composting extract sistem could help costs of firtiliser/ soil health in England like it has worked in Australia
Will we ever get season 2?
Yes, in february
They are working on Season 3
Clarkson cannot be cancelled.
Grew up on a small farm in southeastern US. If it wasn’t the market it was the weather, or equipment. But it was honest hard work
I don't care what Mr Clarkson said about anybody! Free Speech! The only mistake he made was to say sorry. I'm scouring RUclips at 4am in search of Jeremy Clarkson videos to like in support of Mr Clarkson!
Just a small add on re the dealer before harvest it was to hire a decent combine so you can harvest when the time and weather is right .
Welcome to farming mate. It’s fkn hard.
I really hope they do a second series of Clarkson's Farm. I think I actually enjoyed it the most out of anything they've done.
It's out!
What jeremy did whit this show is incredible!!!!people dont know how hard it is to be a farmer!!!!they always complain that the food is expensive and so on!?!this is why!!!!these people work theyre ass off!!!you can loose everything in a week!!!a years work!!!!
while he might whinge about not being able to kill the beetle, but he needs to remember that people are going to consume his product and we would all thank him very much for not putting poison on our food
East coast of Australia have had 4 one in one hundred year floods literally within 6 months!
Here we sometimes use aerial seeding and fertilising. Who would be a farmer?!! At least you don’t have issues with foreign ownership of water rights. Or government recovering water from farmers in catchments only to give it to foreign mining or foreign owned huge cotton farms.
Only reason i keep Amazon Prime is because of Clarkson .
I always laugh when news says “unprecedented, never seen before” right before saying “hasn’t happened since…”. Umm which is it 😜
More farm of Clarkson now please
The vast majority of rational people love you Jeremy
Clarkson is the show
history repeats itself
In our cursed rigion is the drought and there is no end in the horizon it's scarier than to much rain
What music is playing during this scene
Tough it out man we all have too.
You only have to watch Harry Metcalf's videos on how risky planting oil seed rape is (unless you plant it early).
Hang in there mate! We are all in this together ❤️
this was like 2 years ago
yip.... 2 years of Brexshit and still loosing a lot....
Welcome to farming life and you thought car repairs were tricky.
whens the next episode of grand tour :(
Dear SIR BRO Mr.Clarckson, today is a unique day, I just know the new name of ur new program , I'm in Yemen under attack and hunger but once I hear ur voice and see U good I forget the whole sh*t in here, Jeeeermmaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy and the Hamster & Mr.Captain Slow will B the the best fellows ever.
Seeing as our water levels have gone down hugely in the last 50 years then thank god we’ve got excessive rain in some areas. Others we have excessive heat. We’re coming out of an ice age so we will get more Torrential rain and more Droughts
Is there going to be a second season of this masterpiece?
Boy do I miss you guys on Top Gear. I also watch the Grand Tour. Because of Top Gear I bought a 800 WHP GT-R as a retirement gift to myself. The only regret is I should have gotten it years sooner!
Why do you need 800hp ?
@@rep100Luxio Because any more power would require a "built" motor and transmission. On 93 octane it's 750ish which I find about right. Plus I track it.
@@johninnh4880 i were you, i kept its original 500hp and lose as much weight as possible
Coating seeds is a terrible, terrible thing, not just for the environment, but for farming itself also. This is a terrible thing for a farmer to learn that a field has been attacked this way, don't get me wrong.
But, it doesn't just kill the beetles. It also prevent all the pollinators from coming to your farm and kills many of them in the process. And guess what, if you have no pollinator, you have no crop - at all. And this is just the known part of the iceberg. Coating seeds probably have many more effects on soil nutrients that we don't even know about yet. Plus, after a couple of years, the said beetle will have evolved to not be affected by the said-coating. The pollinators, on the other hand, will all have been gone forever. This is always how it goes. If you have a parasite in your field, you will have to use intelligence to get rid of it, not petrochemicals.
Clarkson seems to portrait the problem as one-sided, but it is not. There are ways to make sure that the beetle will not be there. One of the being to not do a monoculture... Conventional monoculture is the main problem here. Not to mention all the problems it causes pollution-wise.
As for the weather, well... He should know that with all the CO2 that he so very loves to pump into the air with his big cars, this is just the beginning of what he's gonna get. One year it's going to be just rain, the other one, no rain at all... But I guess talking about "climate changes" was not part of the equation. Because Lamborghini or some other stupid skit...
I love the reaction to the beetle... It is so painfully true because most dont realise that is what pests can do. We farmers dont mind (our live freaking depends on) bio diversity but we hate pests.....
Rest in Peace to the Grand Tour and Clarksons farm
Wrong
Hoping Jeremy would say "Can I sue the EU for the loss then?"
Well UK isn’t in the EU anymore……. Brexit was supposed to fix everything, even the rain
if he relocates to France....maybe he likes the idea, French passport, free traveling again, just not to the UK , but that is just one tiny country!
Well brexit would slingshot the UK into the golden age of empire 2.0 no?
I mean if Nigel Farage, Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees-Mogg say something it must be true! Right?!
@@Arltratlo Who wants to live in France though
@@mrcaboosevg6089 YOU RACIST
Should’ve planted rice lol
Sustainable agriculture is the way to deal with these issues, not more poisons.
Toime to diversify. Strangely my rudbeckia flower seeds have not germinated. Don.t pit all your veg in one basket plant tough old english veg cabbages cauli broc root veg. And planting those are CHALLENGING.
Standard for many farmers. "The whole field is dead, though shit."
There is a reason so many landowners just started keeping sheep during the industrial revolution.
Rookie numbers. Jeremy should come the American midwest
Someone should make a series or atleast a documentary on farmers plight in India. Not trying to disregard the dismay caused by the excess rains here in this video, but in India it is far more extreme than what you just saw. Torrential rains that would start flash floods across the regions, these floods will wash way the fertile layer of the soil which has all the organic content required by the plants and is CRITICAL for the plants to grow/sustain and this would be the LEAST of the farmer's problems as he would be busy trying to survive the rain/flood. On the contrary, the draughts here are even worse, which I cannot even describe how bad it gets.
I feel so sorry for Jeremy and the other farmers. They work so damned hard only to see it all float down shit creek (sorry!). Jeremy is probably a little luckier than other farmers because he has other activities, but still it's heartbreaking. One thing is strange though. Everything that man touches, whether trees or plants, seem open to all sorts of illnesses and parasites. But taking a look at spots where greenery grows naturally, everything seems to live in some kind of harmony...rigorous and healthy, with the insects not having such an awful effect on the plants. Have we created some sort if imbalance?
Yes we have..
We unnaturally concentrate resources for cultivation, and that allows pests to unnaturally thrive.
1:15 famous last words:
Good old cloud seeding
MEGAN put a spell on it !! She will send locusts next 😂
2:34 Wow look at that monitor! Is Jeremy running Windows 98 at the farm?
Jeremy - this is Farming, It's a delight to see how shocked you are at how hard it is - it's OK because Only people who live in towns and cities need your food - and given that they are miles away you won't hear the bastard Greenies dying. Next year harvest the black beetles Patties. The greenies will love them.
lucky its only 4 hectares. normally i seed around 120 hectares in a day. 12m air seeder bar mate, cant go wrong
this is from last year i watched this episode a while ago
Amazon has Cancelled Clarkson. So I’ve Cancelled Amazon
They haven’t
Oh I understand Jeremy. Planted 1k acres in one day to finish up in front of a half inch of rain predicted....I got 7" in 4hrs. Redid it all 10 days later.
Season 2? 😭
Good job maybe him next!
Good answer Jeremy "we are acting within the rules and an entire field is dead "farming is such fun sometimes ......do the "Right thing and get punished?...
The problem is if you kill the beetles you kill the pollinators along with them. It's a lose, lose.
Scientists fail us again.
Yeah but that doesn't sound as good as "Those damn fat cats in Brussels, they want to ruin the farmers". It is the same rethoric that the Brexit idiots used to discredit sensible laws.
No you don't. Because by killing the beatles the plant survives to flowering which benefits the bees AND beatles (when the plant is big enough to survive)
@@dunkace Let's stop killing Beatles. John was enough.
It has to remain mixed farming. It has served us well for 1,000s of years
I don't wanne see crops I wanna see the BYD YangWang U9 being tested !
Goodbye Amazon prime - go woke go broke.
He says the EU banned a necessary element to get rid or the flea beetle, but I thought the British left the EU in 2016. So are they still subject to the same restrictions and just added the transaction costs?
We just copy paste
The Brexit vote was in 2016 but Brexit itself happened in 2020, and this series was filmed in 2019.
Jeremy, your a legend, I loved your remarks about MM. Ill just leave this here. Merry Christmas and Co. I love your show.
Is sesson 2 out yet?
No 10th of February 2023, so in 50 days roughly
