When I was a boy, I was fortunate enough to be helping on a farm when they last used a binder. I was also there when the thrasher was used with a wire tied baler. I remember back wiring that thing and how dirty and noisy it was. That was in the early Sixties, maybe 63 or 64. A great video that brought back many happy memories.
G'day and greetings from Tasmania Australia, very interesting and a credit to all involved to keep the farming practices of yesteryear alive and to show what it was like farming back then, thank you for the fine videos I have subscribed and look forward to many instalments. Kind regards John Kinnane
I remember the standing thresher and baler being used and also drove a T20 petrol /tvo for 10 years starting from the age of eleven. Second tractor at the time was a David Brown cropmaster for heavy work and superceded by a Massey 35 petrol / tvo. My lifelong school mate bought the David Brown and used it for a couple of years contracting. As an under five we had a fordson major prior to that and we were the first family in our local area to have a tractor as horses were still being widely used. Many of the early implements were modified from horsedrawn, the finger mower, the cart, the rake and the hay wain, the two latter standing idle until being scrapped in my mid teens. The cart hauled everything from manure to earth and rocks right up until I left home aged twenty one and in the 70s.
My Daddy was born in 1915 and was a farmer most of his life in S.C. His Mama came straight from Ireland. His Daddy came straight from Scotland. Daddy drove a red International and two John Deere tractors from the 60's.

Wow, what a cool experience to look back on.
That's so wonderful. Hope they were good memories 😊
@@adailydaughter6196 Yes, they are very good memories.
Amazed to find people stating this about that country- 'Such a peaceful Place'. Flabbergasted.

Excellent video, very informative, a great bit of history. Thanks to all involved.
Thank you Pat
Great video. I enjoyed watching every minute of this fantastic video!
When I worked on the farm the Ford 9n was the workhorse of the smaller jobs. Used it often.

@@VideosofIrishFarmingLife I enjoy pictures of old tractors, Ireland, and how they used to farm.

250 👍. Well done. Can't wait till you hit 1 million. 🥰
Thank-you!
Excellent video, very informational. Why do they cross the belts when they could just reverse the tractor to tighten it?
Hi Eoghan, I think its done to stop them slipping off but i'm sure another subscriber could tell you for sure.. Thanks for dropping us a comment..
