  • Today's video is later than usual. I'm just back from holidays since last night so I recorded and edited today. It's an update on the grass situation which isn't looking good and I tackle the silage wrap for recycling.

    for mental health reasons every farmer needs to have a break away to recharge and family reasons

    We took one week off every year after harvesting or after planting. Our neighboring farm family watched over our livestock as we did in return for one week watching over their livestock.

    I'm always jealous of the farming community for their community spirit. If someone is in trouble then neighbours always spring into action to help. I'm saddened to hear about those comments. You all have something so special look after it. Lift each other up Don't put each other down. ❤❤❤

    Take no notice of the people making these stupid comments. You work a full time job and then do the farming after that so if you can take the odd break go for it. These people either don’t work or work 8 hours a day 5 days a week and have the cheek to complain about not having enough paid holidays! 🤬. Great to see you back

    Another great video Karen, as for the reversing the trailer you're not as bad as you think. I know a lot of people who couldn't even get it in the door. Every farmer deserves a holiday, ploughing match, Tullamore, Balmoral, or a week abroad. The ones that are commenting probably are 5 days a week 9 to 5 workers.

    Get someone to check your wheelbearing right on the trailer if you are looking back its slightly lower angle than other might be your noise plus ruin your chances of reversing easily like having a break on a wheel does that make sense won't turn as well as the intact bearing. Lamp at night and look for yourself the numbers of rabbits 🐇 it will effect your grazing and regrowth they like younger fresher grass coming out more often early morning evening and night they move from wet to dry the rabbits like having a few extra cattle on the farm

  • @PeterJohnston-d8c
    @PeterJohnston-d8c 13 минут назад

    Stop over- thinking when you reverse your trailer, line up where you want to be then just watch the back of the trailer, the steering will come with practice.
    Everyone needs a break from the daily routine, agri shows are great for socialising and just being with other people, too many farmers are isolated for too much of their time

    @michaelking9254 27 минут назад

    Reversing a trailer is not easy. I think you need to get the left and right aspect out of your mind. Try using your mirrors and when you see the trailer moving in a particular direction turn the steering wheel slightly in that same direction. You may find it easier if you turn the wheel constantly from left to right a little bit at a time as you reverse in a straight line. But practice is the name of the game. Good luck.

    Hi . If you are only using trailer ones a year put a pin hich on front off 135 and you will be able t6 put the trailer in any were. It's the easiest way to put in very small place. My dad showed me when I was 8 years old. And if you a turn table front 4 wheel you can even do that. It will make your life easier. When you are only doing it ones a year. All best for Andy in the UK. Great to see people like your self doing a bit of farming. I really miss it

    I remember when I was learning to back up a trailer, I would look at the front wheels and just point them in the direction the trailer has to go. This is so easy to see that you don't need to think hard at all and get confused or anything like that.
    Also i practiced a lot with a toy tractor. Worked for me anyway.

    Hi Karen,
    Great video. The reseeds are looking great. 1 light grazing with the calves will make a great job of the 1st field you reseeded.
    Well spoken about how important it is to take a break away from the farm. Be that going abroad or to the ploughing for a day or 3. Any break away from the farm is really healthy. It sets a really good example for the next generation, and it shows them that it can be done and how important it is. Well done 👏

  • @GeoffreyMoore-i9k

    If you only use the trailer to recycle the silage wraps, why not put them straight in the trailer, save packing the dumpy bags, to unload them again onto the trailer
    Another great video, love you honesty. Reversing a trailer is a matter of practice for sure, if you were using on a weekly basis rather than yearly you'd see the difference lol
    Take care

    The re-seeds are looking great. Well worth the effort.
    With farmers attending The Plowing, or any trade fair, that’s as important as any day on the farm. Networking is so important to the farmers. Keeping on top of the latest technologies, meeting with sales people, maybe picking up a show deal.
    You’ve got a special group of supporters on this channel for sure, but sadly there are ignorant folk everywhere. I’m sure if we were to scrutinize their lives, as they are others, we find just as much to be critical of.
    Cheers Karen. Once again, lovely work on the fields. Let’s see what they look like next year. Just think of all that luxurious grass spreading out across your fields, just waiting for the cattle to tuck into it.
