That’s why we love Harry - first look at the Aston Martin DBX in the background - I expect James Bond is round the corner doing a bit of sheep shearing.
I always enjoy the "Harry's Farm episodes because they contain interesting insights into something I know nothing about. That Aston must be one heck of a tractor :)
Having now watched your Harry's Farm videos for a whole season I have reached the conclusion farming is extremely stressful, financially risky, mentally draining, and whatever it is you earn from it, I for one don't begrudge you a penny.
That’s exactly the same for me, my eyes have been opened wide with these videos, food, health and education are the most important things and usually the most criminally underfunded and supported, I really do shake my head at the priorities of this world these days.
Yes, and the radical left is desperately trying to strangle farmers out of existence. In The Netherlands, my home country, many farmers are going bankrupt because of the ridiculous “environmental rules” and then everything gets imported from far less environmentally friendly countries. It’s neocommunist madness to destroy out heritage and independence! 😡
thanks harry for the honesty! the bit on the chemical makes us think about population, productivity, and the best use of resources; and your bit about the farm supporting evo then the evo supporting the farm helps us appreciate your sublime hustle.
Another insight to modern farming life, thanks. Our birthday celebration meal is the Inn at Whitewell, lucky for me, I celebrated my 67th birthday this year on the 15th March, then the lockdown! sadly our second favourite venue the Ashheston Arms in Downham ( Harry when you next visit Whitewell, for a shoot , Downham is only 20 mins away SE , The Ashheton has closed, but its in a great village at the base of Pendle Hill) look it up.
Hands down one of the best farming channels on here. Harry you sir have a great way of explaining things, showing stuff and you're just an all around good guy. Thanks for being so good at what you do and sharing things with all of us.
I see in your future 'Harry's World' an array of beautiful farm and road vehicles, superbly displayed amid interactive features and a really decent café!
Thank you for the update and your candid thoughts on farming and the need to diversify in order to make a go of it. I guess I was surprised at your earlier video by how little return there can be but that's life. Thanks for contributing.
Right, so are you honestly trying to tell me, that the first time we get to see a real world test of an Aston Martin DBX - anywhere in the world, is bounding over the fields on Harry's Farm??? 😉😉😉
Working on a farm in the summer brings back vivid memories of my teenage years in the cotswolds.Hungry to start getting a pay cheque during school holidays I got a job in Gretton near Winchcombe bringing in the hay bales.Lots of string burns and blisters and tasting 'scrumpy' home made by the farmers wife for the first time.Nothing like a good days work.
I wish there was a healthy demand for linen fibres; surely better than imported cotton. Thankfully you communicate well so you put across your farming experience successfully.
We grow mustard on the potato farm I work at. Sometimes we mulch it and plow it down with a lemken karat right behind. We are experiencing a drought right now in Prince Edward Island, Canada as well. Always love watching both channels.
Way back in about 1993, I saw the “beast” down in Beer, Devon. Large black panther. Slowly walked up the hill on the other side of the valley, with its very long tail swinging behind. The sheep in the field were all facing him down. They followed every movement, even after it disappeared into a hedgerow. Can’t say I blame them! My hairs were standing up, I won’t ever forget that sight.....
Being a farmers son, but not in farming, I like your farm vlogs because you explain the farmers side & the what the crops are, how they’re performing or not as in the case for this year. I also like your Harry’s Garage.
I had to double take on the Aston, at a quick glance I thought it was a Cayenne. Interesting video Harry. ‘Eternally optimistic next year will be better’ I think we’re all aboard that ship this year.
Harry, the farms are two days in, on their wheat and barley. Mid Norfolk is where it's all going on. So many JCB Fastracs with huge loads of straw on them - in those monster bales. I really doubt me and my pitchfork would be any help!
Thank you Harry, Im grateful you touched on the need for farmers to diversify so they can supplement their income, balancing out the good harvests from the bad. Owning and managing land is not a license to print money, it’s probably riskier than playing the stock market, but as you quite rightly said, it’s a way of life and farmers are eternally hopeful that next year will be kinder. Great content again, and enjoyed the sneaky preview too. 🙂👍
When this travel thing is over, you are welcome to come check out the things we do in NZ, right now the price of wool is so bad, we lose $3 for each animal that is shorn, we had to diversify massively in the 80's. As you are a grain grower, id look into doing a deal with a local micro brewer to do a Harry's farm labeled beer best of luck with harvest!
I've seen Harry's interest sparked most recently by grape vines, I wouldn't be surprised if he's working out how to put a half acre over to producing his own wine.
Fantastic informational video as always Harry!! Like these field walks pre harvest!! Since the Aston is so new explains why it left hand drive!! And didn't know you were behind the Mag Evo 👍🏻
I love the channel Harry (and Harry's Garage) but coming from Australia it amuses me that you call three months without rain a drought! And that drought was only a month or two after a flood. Try going for 3-7 years without rain like over here, lol. I'd be tempted to do a craft brewery over there, growing everything you need for the process, it would bring in some tourism income too.
Due to some crazy weather in the last few years we had the secondary tilling thing happen in soybeans here in Ohio. Most of the beans were ready to harvest and around the outside they were green and growing good. We came back later and harvested the outsides since it was close to home.
Love the casual...oh yes the Aston DBX... nevermind that let's talk about Mustard seed...ha ha great vid Harry looking forward to the Aston vid over on the other channel.
Intelligent and informative uk farmer with RUclips channel gives a great pre harvest crop tour. In an as yet not launched brand new Aston Martin SUV. 👍👌Shaky ground Harry, shaky ground. 😉
I was working in the SDNP, one day, when we saw a black beast, just like yours. Cameras out, ready for the headline story, but it just turned out to be a feral cat. With nothing to compare it's size with, except Gorse, it looked a lot bigger than it was. Excitement over.
Tricky Dicky Yeah, where I used to live in the Netherlands we had the Winnie the Puma hype. Loads of Panik, summertime hype in the media. But there never was a puma. Just a cat.
Interesting vid as usual, thanks Harry ,i have an insight into whats going on in the fields around St margarets near Dover where i live . Here the Barley looks ripe ,the Wheat looks ready and the oats look ready we had far less rain than you did in the cotswolds .I think the harvest will begin this weekend ,but there is a thunderstorm forecast for tomorrow .... I`m more interested in farming now rather than cars and Bikes thanks to you Harry .Keep up the good work .
Harry, your thoughts on the vagaries of farming put me in mind of my late father when he was farming in NZ. He just didn't have the right temperament for it; at times he would get into a right old tizz and the air would turn quite blue. Nice little teaser with the new Aston Martin DBX - actually, having an interest outside of farming is a good way to diffuse the tension.
Spotted the Aston right away .. just wondered if he’d mention it !! Can’t comment until 10 August . So cool cruising round the barley field in that thing !! 👌
There's something quite bland about its styling. Looks a bit like an overgrown Nissan Qashqai. No doubt that it will drive quite nicely, but so does a Qashqai for a tenth of the price. For a person that aspires to afford a new Qashqai, and there are thousands of them, then I bet that the Qashqai gives them just as much driving satisfaction and pride of ownership also.
Harry needs main stream channel to inform the general public what is really going on in farming..so interesting and informative ..love the new Defender ?....take care.
I live on a ranch in a farming community and hear this on a regular basis. We have very happy, grass fed cattle, but never make any profit. Luckily there are other sources of income. The cows are Mom’s pets. LOL
Great videos your Lordship. I'm more into the garage videos but this was very interesting. You should take us round your whole estate so we can see everything including cottages, etc.
Always interesting be it cars or farming...and that “Jaguar F-Pace” in the background sounded nice...good of you to quietly lets us have a glimpse by accident!😎😎😎😎
Hi Harry, I never get bored of your videos, and I really like how you touch on subjects like farm income and use of roundup etc, really informative and interesting, I wish other channels would do the same! Probably not the car to be driving in the same episode as discussing poor income 🙈😂, but I love nevertheless 👍
You should do a tractor driving experiance as your a land owner ... love your vids especialy this one as you can tell you stressed abit ect make people realise that its not all sunshine and pots of gold .. keep the content coming 💯👌👍
Another excellent video with great insights at the end. When I'm out and about cycling I'm always explore the farms and country roads. I do wonder how the ones I see compare to Harry's!
When I grew this and that in my garden I noticed I was always thinking about next year. Next year I'll do this or I'll try that. Farming seems to be always thinking ahead. Harry could set aside a field as a campsite. The Cotswolds are scenic, just need a field close enough to something of interest and close enough to the road..
Great content as always from Harry. Surprised he can’t comment on the Aston until 10th August as I’ve seen one twice on the road in Chesterfield the first time about a month ago. Press car maybe?
An English car with a left hand drive in the UK? That got my attention. Always nice to see your videos about farming, I find them very informing. Thank you for your videos.
If Harry put his boot down in the Aston, he'd have two big furrows up the field. Back in the days of no speed limit Aston Martin would test driver there cars on the M1, they would make the Morris 1000 woody rock as the flew by.

Why's it left hand drive though?
@@szymongorczynski7621 Pre-production cars are often LHD.
Great recommendation from Tom Pemberton. Great vid. Liked and subscribed.
same here, i stared his first yesterday i am hoping to watch all today.
Great to see the Aston Martin going back to its roots.....David Brown tractors.
I appreciate your honesty, Harry, in the closing piece. As a small farmer I'm glad you explained it.
No seriously, Harry's farm is just so satisfying. Cruising the Aston through weed city is just the icing on the cake.
I love how he's rocking around in a DBX checking out the field!!!! hahaha
Possibly the most off road any DBX will ever get! :D
Haha what a legend
'Gentleman Farmer'.....no better description for Harry!......keep up the good work 😊
I always enjoy the "Harry's Farm episodes because they contain interesting insights into something I know nothing about. That Aston must be one heck of a tractor :)
Has it got a tow hook for the plough ?
@@RJPick1 Of course, must be a big one :)
@@RJPick1 or a power takeoff..
Lamborghini made tractors!
@@lucifarian93 They did indeed :)
Thanks for the insight into U.K. farming Harry, glad somebody is still willing to feed us.
Having now watched your Harry's Farm videos for a whole season I have reached the conclusion farming is extremely stressful, financially risky, mentally draining, and whatever it is you earn from it, I for one don't begrudge you a penny.
Yeah but you get to drive massive combines and tractors 😆

Better than watching BBC news on a Sunday morning, much more entertaining👍👍 thanks Harry.
A prancing DBX! The Burford Beast! Weed infestations and 12mm of water! Gotta love Harry’s Farm! 😄
I think that must be the definition of a Gentleman Farmer, gliding over the fields, touring the estate in an Aston Martin 4X4 !
i have to use a pick up
Probably the only DBX to ever go off road!
@@g--gle show off
Came here to say this....nicely done.
Keep using the Roundup and tell it like it is, Harry.
Another insight to modern farming life, thanks.

How to make a small fortune in farming? Start with a large fortune.
Hahaha very true
Harry didn't start with a large fortune. Ground up.
Simon Crabb didn’t he sell his share in EVO?
I wish there was a healthy demand for linen fibres; surely better than imported cotton. Thankfully you communicate well so you put across your farming experience successfully.

Just watched again for the AM bits, Rorty😉
How could you disagree with this man. It's beyond me.

Just getting on it south coast, next week will be busy, didn’t look like deer slots Harry, maybe the beast is back..cheers.
Welcome back Harry, I’ve missed your videos.
Love the new “tractor” btw😃
It will be a real crime if Harry doesn’t win awards for this channel.
Good job Harry sprays his fields with Glyphosate herbicides?
Excellent, And a dbx in the background.
How cool is that..touring the linseed in an Aston one of the best if.not the best farming channel
