    Those drone shots looked fantastic, hopefully the mild autumn and winter so far can give those late planted fields the boost they need.

    I found Harry's garage by chance, I had no real interest in classic cars, I certainly had no interest in farming, I honestly believe Harry could make a channel about anything and I'd look forward to watching the next episode, I dont think there's a more likeable fella on RUclips or TV or anywhere! Brilliant content everytime, cheers

    Hi Harry, don't know if you read the comments yourself but just wanted to say I really appreciate these videos. I've learnt so much by watching the videos you guys make. I knew farming wasn't easy as someone who likes growing food at home but to do it on such a massive scale just adds to the complexity. I'm learning a great deal of information on topics I otherwise would probably never have known. Cheers.

      @Buddy White he does reply to messages on both his channels and Instagram. He’s a very busy man. Between running the farm, organising his fleet of cars, doing the road tests, going on road trips, making and editing these videos and god knows what else because that’s only what we see. I had a quick chat to him at Goodwood a few years ago and he was busy then making a video.

    I grew up in rural Shropshire, one day there was a cow munching grass on our front lawn.. I had to walk it down the road back to the farm. I never really thought anymore of it..
    So its great to understand the life of farmers and the daily ins and outs of farming in general.
    It’s a thinking mans game as Harry expertly explains with his channel..

    Lovely looking farm Harry, to own such beautiful countryside and be responsible for maintaining it must be a blessing and a worry. To leave the farm in a better condition than when you started and in the hands of someone who will continue to look after it when your gone must be the goal of any farmer. Your doing a great job maintaining the walls and looking after the trees a legacy that will still be there in a hundred years. Plant a belt of trees on the farm and call it Harry’s cover and your name will always be remembered.😊

  • @K2shadowfax
    @K2shadowfax 2 года назад +4

    That dry-stone wall looks fantastic! Q: why a single strand of barbed wire...instead of a single strand of electrified wire? I would have thought the electric wire (fence) would be more of a deterrent to any curious sheep/cattle...also, they would not get cut on the barbed wire, which, I presume, does in fact happen... Another good idea would be to put in some heavy-duty 'brushes' in a certain spot, enabling the cattle and sheep to come and get a self-administered rub. I saw it on some other farming vid somewhere, and it was a fantastic success. The cattle loved it. The Farmer loved it too...because it saved his fences! Cheers!

    Don't actually care where you live, Harry. Just like the challenge. Like one day I was watching a show and they were all like "we want to be extra careful about things so we're being super secret, but here's our lovely parking space for lunch." Took me three minutes. Aside from the "gave up, never find"s, I think one year is a record. Congratulations.

    Thanks Harry, insightful as ever.
    +5:19 I don't understand your concern - the chance of wheat dropping from £250 to an unviable £100 looks less than normal - how much is the price a factor of supply and demand and how much a factor of financial speculation ?
    +4:37 why can't you make changes until Aug/Sep 2024 ? Why a two year cycle ?
    Do you have a lower profit, higher reliability banker crop to pay your costs and speculate with higher profit, lower reliability crops to make higher profits ?
    I'd like a crop strategy deep dive or could you point us to one if it's already been done 👍

      @popuptoaster 2 года назад +2

      It's not that simple, supply and demand determines prices more than location. Some countries have better climates for growing certain crops, growing more potatoes in the UK won't lower the prices of the bananas in the supermarket.

There are two olive groves, each consisting of approximatly 1 tree each but the don't do much. Its a thrill to see Harry's farm in this day and age when everyone is moaing so much about the decline of modern civilisation and the end of the world.
