I live in the middle of North London and am not a farmer nor do I know any but I and all I know are behind you all the way!! We need our precious farmers! Thank you for fighting 🙏🏼♥️
A lot of people like you do not understand farming or what we will have to go through to carry on keeping them alive, so Thankyou, it’s hugely appreciated.
Great video Andrew, I think it's brilliant how you and other RUclips farmers have got together so quickly to cooperate, organise and coordinate the protest on the 19th. Three things that this Labour Government could never understand. 👍.
Well said Andrew about the rally.Leave the place clean and tidy so the government has nothing to pin on us!! We must not rise to there Bait! Thank you for upload kind regards👍😉👍
Never a truer word spoken Andrew. “It shouldn’t be such a battle to produce food!” I 100% agree! Great to see you cracking on with the field work. We’ve been lucky to get a spell of weather like this. Definitely makes a difference with the sun on our faces! Looking forward to next Tuesday. See you there! 👍🚜
Excellent message for everyone attending the rally. It is brilliant that you are involved and delivering food to the needy is a wonderful touch. Ill be there in spirit and sending positive thoughts. P.S. dont forget to pop by our stand at MMS and say hello.
Morning Andrew I hope everything goes well with the rally I hope the government listen that farming is important to our country we all need food at the end of the day
Very good midweek up date. Making the most of the sunny weather with cultivation's and drilling. I agree with you about trying the gentle approach first on the 19th. However, tractors on mass in London to create havoc would be the next step if this government won't listen to reason.
Joe seels video yesterday showed footage of some x labour advisor actually say we dont need farmers!!!!!🤬 Unbelievable!!! I really hope Tuesday is the start of a positive dialogue for the uk farmers! Thanks Andrew
What a great suggestion on people attending the rally to ensure that the area is left clean and tidy. Absolutely spot on with saying it shouldn't be such a battle to produce food. We need farmers in this country, we don't need the uneducated running the country, which the current government are displaying they're out of their depth. I have to say the feel good factor with the sunshine has really brightened my week up. Been busy with physio, determined to get out walking the fields very soon. Might not be my 10k I generally do but anything shall be good. The land looking to be working not to badly, with the colder weather it shall dry it out a little bit more and break down any bigger clumps. Thank you as always for your hard work Andrew and the updates. 👍
Fully agree Andrew and all the best and Good Luck for Tuesday - BTW The marchers in support of Voldermort also ensure that they clean up fully afterwards.
Well done Sir. These politicians are so disconnected from reality now that must be schooled on what is really important I this country of ours now. Also, some members of the public, with similar mental challenges have to realise that when the supermarket shelves are suddenly empty, the blame lies with the people that purport to run the country. The latter resides in the shelter and comfort of Westminster. I certainly detect strong undercurrents now in our society now beyond farming. If the politicians don't listen, they must be made to listen! Good luck with all of this.
Well done Andrew on everything you are doing, the land looks like it is working well, and the wheats are looking good. Good luck next week and some good advice about not leaving a mess or causing trouble, I am 100% behind you all the way.
Good luck Andrew on Tuesday to you and the other You Tubers for making such an effort to fight every farmers interest your a great bunch who else would take the trouble to get this massive rally together don’t know how you do it your running a big arable farm getting the land ready for sowing it looked like it was doing well we’ve had a few good days actually it has dried up I hope every thing goes well for Tuesday your all doing a Sterling job
Thanks Eddie, this weeks been a struggle, I don’t mind admitting. On top of organising the rally and drilling, I’ve had a big nfu meeting with the EA about the floods! 😩
We need farmers for our food,not imported food,from farms/countries which don't comply with our high standards, we produce the very best ,high welfare food in the world! The country side wouldn't be the same without farmers,so a big well done for standing up to our bulling government 👏
I sometimes grumble about our hills, I sometimes grumble about only having 8 inches of soil, I sometimes grumble about the rocks a boulders but on reflection, I'll stick with what I have and doff my cap to you heavy land boys, trying to get a seedbed in plastercine looks a challenge
Well done for all the hard work you have put into the London job, I hope it goes smoothly and peaceful. Yes first time we seen sun in Forest of Dean this November today,
Smashing informative post Andrew. Mobility issues so can't attend Rally but as I said to Charles A, PLEASE I will be with you in spirit and you will represent me & all of us who are unable to attend. Good luck for the rally. Thank you lads for your hard work in organising it.
Fabulous intro Andrew I truly hope your words are taken on board, your rules and Olly's words last night As you say, Tuesday is the opening campaign, let's show everyone how well farmers can carry themselves, treat the capital as they would want their land treated and give the respect they'd wish to receive Leaving the tractors out of it, will I hope keep the public on side, rather than alienate them, as seen by just stop oil Great to see you've finally got a break in the weather to capitalise on drilling, not perfect conditions, but it won't produce a harvest if its still in the shed Best of luck Geoff
Kivells are organising a farmer's rally on the 19th November at Holsworthy Market for those who can't make it to London. Sticky soil there your working not easy to deal with but seems to crop well. Unfortunate with the Case diesel tank when you need it the most then they never give trouble parked in the shed!
I've never met a "proper" country person who would drop litter! we are more likely to pick it up........ I'm not coming to London but daughter and son in law are. Good luck all and well done.
Good morning Andrew, it's good to see the field work getting caught up gradually around the country. It is what will eventually end up on our plates and for that I will be eternally grateful to all those involved in that process. I also admire those who stand together against any injustice but I am not a fan of misinformation or sensationalism , I fear it does nobodies cause any good whatsoever in fact often does quite the opposite. I read an article by a first time contributor in Farmers Weekly Opinion page ( 8/11/2024) by Jo Franklin who is a first generation farmer like myself. I would encourage anyone with thoughts about the announced tax changes to read it and consider it's content carefully. Paul
Another great update and so glad to see the drilling continuing despite the weather’s best attempts to ruin it a month or so ago. Alway impressed that you manage to juggle so many commitments. Really encouraging to see people getting behind next Tuesday. Thank you to you any the other organisers for arranging this important day.
I'm going to be away, unfortunately, but hope all goes well for you guys on the 19th. Here's hoping the clowns sit up & pay attention and the general populous support you appropriately! 👍👍
Drove down the A17 today and turned off at Ledenham and the Wheat on the left hand side looking very well,shame about the blocked coulters on the other side 😝🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬👍
Hi Andrew a great video update, yourself with olly are doing a great job, but I think it going to be a big job to get through to this terrible Labour government and let them now they are making a big mistake!!!!
Cracking update again Andrew. Hope the march makes a big difference mate but I heard on the radio this morning that Racheal Reeves isn’t going to back down on the tax and also a politician saying we don’t need family farms I mean what a dickhead to say that of course we need family farms. Glad to see you catching up with drilling, we’ve had better weather in October/November than in August here in west Cornwall. 😊
Yep, United nations is the problem. Way above the gov's heads. Good to see Argentina's leader has them sussed out. I have heard it's UN policy to raise the UK population to 138M with 3rd world migrants by 2050. Is that true?
Pleased to see you getting drilled up and Andrew,what a difference to this time last year Im looking forward to next Tuesday,if i see you i will come and say hello! Are you taking Frankie and narla to London?🤣
Labour land GRAB no other way to describe it , i bet pound to a penny if Labour had been honest over there polices the GE result would have been vastly different the soil is working vastly better than Sunday , can you imagine Labour dealing with the diesel tank crisis probably needed all 4i0 Labour MP`s to solve it
Just a thought Andrew as we all descend on London on Tuesday, may worth mentioning farm security, the brighter thieves could target farms as we are all out of the way. David
@ yes I thought of that too though do many criminals watch your channel 😀 just the smaller farmers out of the way who don’t often leave the farm may not think of it maybe
the farm is looking great Andrew, justifying the difficult decisions youve made in the last year. How long do you expect the mole drains to last and will you now schedule the technique on a rotational basis?
What a difference a few days make. Those fields you just showed, look so much better than they did after the last run of cultivations. Good luck for next Tuesday, sorry not to be there, but with my health problems, it's just not feasible for me to walk out of my flat complex, let alone get a train to London, and walk anywhere. Much to my regret! I'll support our farmers all the way, what ever. This mob of Marxists just won't understand the why's and wherefores of the arguments on principal, as they don't believe in how we do it here in a true democracy! Big thanks to all who are helping to organise this, and to everyone going TAKE CARE! The Met are good people, if they know in advance, what and why, they will, and have, bent over backwards to help. Please don't leave any trash behind, just think of the publicity that would cause against our cause.
Cant make it to London Andrew but fully support you and the industry. Despicable behaviour from the state. NI and min wage hike, fertilizer tax, AdBlue more expensive that petrol, tax relief on double cab trucks removed. Looks like an attack on the industry if ever there was one. I did read that DEFRA tried a half hearted challenge to the treasury but were rebuffed. Stay strong, All the best.
Andrew I cant help but wonder why you don’t plough your land behind beet and power harrow drill the wheat ? Old school but think more effective this time of the year no ?
That is the most commonly asked question I get! Most just don’t comprehend we are not dealing with light soils here. When ploughed it comes up shiny, livery, in one seam the full length of the field, it doesn’t turn over so you can see the furrow bottom all over the field. My neighbour ploughed after sugar beet 3 fields away, it’s just like that. It would be nearly impossible to get a winter wheat in.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard ok that’s a different prospect to my grade one soils in east Norfolk , I’m very lucky to farm this soil type even with the clay patches !
Farming rules book anytime off and it's gaurenteed to be fine weather ! Next year us farmers will crowdfund to give rhueben 2 weeks holiday in the middle of harvest ! 😂😂😂😂
The government attitude is basically "who cares if we don't have farmers in the UK, we can rewild the countryside and 'save the planet " and just import all our food"!!!
Would love to be standing shoulder to shoulder with you all but the day to day jobs of livestock need to be done. For every one there there’s at least one at home doing the work
Exactly, thank you for what you do. I love meat and know the dedication livestock farmers have to your animals and I know it’s a totally different life to an arable farmer and it does stop you doing things you’d like to.
Sorry, not sure what you’re meaning? Payments on the Freeflow? We paid £18,000 for it around 10 years ago, second hand and traded in a 6m for £9,000, a bit better that £150k!!! 450 seeds/sq m
Does celebrities just mean Clarkson? Personally I see no issue with "fertiliser tax". Firstly, it is going to be on everything, not just fertiliser. Secondly, we shouldn't be outsourcing the production of high emmission products to countries with less regulation. Exact same logic as not allowing grain grown with products banned here to be sold in our markets.
@WardysWaffleAndrewWard Absolutely, if they are going to demonise British farmers for emissions, the emissions tax should definitely apply to food imports.
Make sure all your vehicles are ULEZ compliant before you come into London. Oh wait they’re all only a few years old and worth hundreds of thousands of pounds. Why can’t you pay inheritance tax again?
Keep up, we’re not bringing any vehicles, shows how little you listen or understand farming and farmers. We’re not JSO or any of the mobs who protest. 🙄
Sincere apologies Nick. 😢 I’d just opened a genuinely shitty one on Twitter. I should have gone for a walk before looking at supporters on here. Sorry.

No longer actively involved in farming,,but so proud of the ethos with which the protest on 19th is being organised.
Can hear the sunshine in your voice .
Good luck with the rally, hope all the outcomes are positive.
The day people wake up to the importance of farming and full stomachs will be a day to late in some cases
Excellent message for everyone attending the rally. It is brilliant that you are involved and delivering food to the needy is a wonderful touch.
Ill be there in spirit and sending positive thoughts.
P.S. dont forget to pop by our stand at MMS and say hello.
Thank you, if I go! 😴!
@WardysWaffleAndrewWard Yes, could be an energy sapping week. Stay safe on Tuesday, and massive best wishes.

Andrew is olly Bloggs and Gareth wyn jones speaking I wish you well n your quest best wishes the retired farmer
Gareth isn’t but all us 5 organisers are.
Good luck on 19th I think you will have huge support from farming and non farming folk alike

Badenoch wants a UK-US trade deal, that would bring in ultra cheap agricultural products that our farmers haven't a hope in competeing with.
Reform.
@kevinharker1840 same old, same old, no one has any really original ideas in politics.
Brexit was always about a US 🇺🇲 trade deal ,🚜
All good wishes. In good times that many farmers in London would have been the Smithfield show and afterwards!!

I have heard it's UN policy to raise the UK population to 138M with 3rd world migrants by 2050. Is that true?
That bright thing was bright here this afternoon that i went blind for a bit. Issuance cash look at it for a while.
Pleased to see you getting drilled up and Andrew,what a difference to this time last year
Im looking forward to next Tuesday,if i see you i will come and say hello! Are you taking Frankie and narla to London?🤣
Thanks Kev, please do. Frankie would certainly tell Labour what she thought, she’s just like her Mum, feisty!😂

Andrew I cant help but wonder why you don’t plough your land behind beet and power harrow drill the wheat ? Old school but think more effective this time of the year no ?
That is the most commonly asked question I get! Most just don’t comprehend we are not dealing with light soils here. When ploughed it comes up shiny, livery, in one seam the full length of the field, it doesn’t turn over so you can see the furrow bottom all over the field. My neighbour ploughed after sugar beet 3 fields away, it’s just like that. It would be nearly impossible to get a winter wheat in.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard ok that’s a different prospect to my grade one soils in east Norfolk , I’m very lucky to farm this soil type even with the clay patches !

Sorry, I did on Sunday, I’ll do an update and post on shorts before next sunday.

With all that power and passes, would you be better off with a power harrow/drill?
No! It would need a pass or 2 before that, this is heavy land not sandy stuff!

@ nope, nothing there. And no get emails from TFF

@kevinstrachan4442 yeah, because they weren't profitable because countries with no regulations undercut them.
If it happens there needs to be a tax on imported food.
@WardysWaffleAndrewWard Absolutely, if they are going to demonise British farmers for emissions, the emissions tax should definitely apply to food imports.
Wardy can I borrow that strange thing you had to google. Looks like something I could use.

Make sure all your vehicles are ULEZ compliant before you come into London.
Oh wait they’re all only a few years old and worth hundreds of thousands of pounds.
