New subscriber here, I'm a city girl and I have learnt so much from Tom Pemberton but there is always more to.learn.Thank you for showing more about what goes on in farms. Loving your videos .watching from Manchester U.K..👍❤
Fantastic video Canning farms 👏 you have the farm looking in great condition and you have improved the land so much with all your hard work 💪🚜🐄 keep up the good work 🐮🐂🚜🐄
How times change, the machinery has transformed the tasks. I remember as a kid out in the fields in Kerry turning the hay with a pitchfork, then gathering it the same way and stacking it in haycocks, tied down with ropes spun out of twisted hay (a skill I never really mastered!). Anyway it’s fun watching you doing it, from here in SINGAPORE 🇸🇬
I remember when a guy showing up with a 10 ft mower was a big thing, looks almost quaint now with all the butterflies and Big M's running about the place.
Looks as though that should make high quality silage judging by what you were showing us. Do you have any slurry left to spread? - those fields would really benefit from a heavy application and would likely produce a good yield of second cut. Dan
No no slurry left have a bit of fert left over I'll graze the edges off and apply then hope to get another cut in 6-7 weeks off that patch again and have it then grazing the rest of the year
Yea first time I tried it it's just to get a good wilt on the grass and reduce the moisture content going into the bale and hopefully that will increase the dry matter and be better feed seemed to work well
@@Canningfarms small farm so not many other options but sell stock every 12 months which is good turnover for me, easy to manage as working FT and farming myself, bought as calfs sold as stores
@@Canningfarms Ah i did ours with urea too but waited the 6 weeks and only bag per acre was mighty crop for the little i used on it . slurry is mighty stuff to be fair!
jeez didnt know you were in an out of swinford Arivo,your closer than I thought, you'd put me to shame cutting silage in early may, not a blade of grass on my land, mothers sheep have every last bit of it gone, only got bagmanure out late last week

You got a good spell of weather. Mayo man dairy farming in New Zealand. We're just heading into winter here
They seem to do it right out there do they house fir the winter?
No, all outside on fodder beet and hay. If it keeps raining, it will be pure hardship.
Good Morning Gavin - your hard work and commitment has paid off in abundance. God Bless You. Beautiful..🙏🇮🇪🙏

That's what the man who cut it said his father used to come to my grandfather to trash

That's it mark mental even in the short time I've been farming the change
@@Canningfarms Yeah it is alright, Nice crop of stuff you got off it.

Hi gavin, great video and camera work. Tell me this, what’s the purpose of tedding the glass? Did you say it’s the first time you did that?
Yea first time I tried it it's just to get a good wilt on the grass and reduce the moisture content going into the bale and hopefully that will increase the dry matter and be better feed seemed to work well

Co Clare here.
How many acres for the 60 bales?
Around 7 acres but 2 of that was very very light
@@Canningfarms good yield for this time of year considering the april we got looked great stuff in fairness, calf to beef here in galway.
@@pumphesh2048 how do you find the calf to beef?
@@Canningfarms small farm so not many other options but sell stock every 12 months which is good turnover for me, easy to manage as working FT and farming myself, bought as calfs sold as stores
How many weeks had it been if you had to go get the grass tested or did you use a lot of fert per acre?
Around 5 to 5 and a half weeks so was more the timing then the amount got 2 bags of urea a few weeks ago and slurry in feb
@@Canningfarms Ah i did ours with urea too but waited the 6 weeks and only bag per acre was mighty crop for the little i used on it . slurry is mighty stuff to be fair!
