Total respect for listening to what your body was saying! Having been carer to all 3 of my grandparents, i completely understand what you mean by dreading the phone ringing. It's not easy, for anyone going through that situation. If us viewers can ever do anything to ease the load, just holler 🙂
Thank you 🙏
Having the whole family help with covering the pit is awesome. Shared experiences make life worth living. Well done Adrian on a very good vid again
Quite honestly one of the best silage clamps I have seen. Awesome job!
You and your family need a good long holiday, the amount of work you guys go through is incredible not to mention creating these brilliant videos for us to enjoy. Tiredness gets to us all at times an this spring has made it exceptionally worse for most. Glad to see all done and at least that pressure is over. That wind was crazy 😮
The Wind is better than the rain when it comes to harvesting activities.
Great decision to get someone in to cut the grass for you, it’s so important to recognise and acknowledge when you need help, for your sake and for your family’s. It was lovely to see everyone mucking in at the end to get the pit covered and I’m so glad the weather cooperated with you for once this year! Keep making the smart decisions and love to you and your wonderful family.
Good for you Adrian, hitting the pressure release button was a sensible decision. I’m so pleased you got the silage in thanks to the support from the Chambers crew and it’s now put to bed. Take care my friend! Slainte
Go raibh maith agat 👍
You’re a great man for getting through the work lad. I don’t know how you keep the pace up so well. Another excellent video and your pit filled up well too.
The best way to care for your loved ones is to recognize when you need assistance. When a family comes together it brings out the very best and worst in us all. Best wishes to you and your family!
Agreed, it was a relief to let them do all this year
great to see the silage in.. blessed with the calm to get the cover on. My dad (who's 82) was saying yesterday that his father, while reminiscing about the Epsom Derby (where we were born) which used to be held on the first Wednesday in June, remembered snow occasionally at that time. So the cold in June is nothing new really.. take care, thanks for the videos...
You know what, we did the same thing this year basically just showed the lads what fields to cut and they came and mowed, raked and put it in they even gave us a hand to cover it as it was spilling rain where they were going next ( actually it rained all around us that day but we didn’t get any) . It was a long hard spring and we had the slurry pit full so we knew that we were going to be a few days early and late getting the pit empty and made the decision to just pay the extra few bucks and give ourselves a chance as we were also spun out. Sometimes you just need a little less pressure and we who are of that age are trying to mind our parents which can be very difficult ( especially when they don’t want to be minded) anyway regards from Wicklow.
I’m learning a lot here!
I didn’t know what a heifer was!
I don’t know what silage is!
I’ll have to look that one up!
I know one thing!
Farming is hard work!
And you know a lot more that cattle!
You fix your equipment, the engines, axles, milking equipment, welding; there’s nothing you can’t do!
Amazing!
And with a bad leg!
silage is grass cut and stored for use in the winter when the cows live inside
Look out Grassmen!! Morris Farm TV nippin at your heels!!!! Great stuff as always.
Great video as always, great to get the silage and the slurry out, I’m watching this video from Holland, I’m over on a family holiday,I couldn’t miss your weekly video no matter where I was.
Good to get it all down & packed in. Great to have extended family helping out.
You are very lucky to have some hard workers in your girls you must be a proud father, another great video as always.
Well done Adrian and all your family.Silage in and covered. Please look after yourself and all your family. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bless you, take care - as we know, there is always another day. Pace yourself, life is a marathon not a sprint !
Oh my goodness! I can’t imagine such excellent filming for your audience while managing such a pivotal point in your business. Glad you pulled in assistance to take some of the pressure off. Hope you and your family can take a break soon.
much appreciate all your time to make these videos on of your manic workload
Great video Adrian. Good to have all the family help out covering the pit. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼
It’s only the ones that have cared for an elderly family member can understand what pressure it can put you under to be there for them in there time of need and also keep the wheels turning in your own life as well.
Was a good idea to have your silage done for you this time and what a great job they made of it too! I bet you were well pleased.
Take care Adrian👍
Family 1st. Well done. Take time for yourself 👍🏻🇨🇦☘️
I think you did absolutely the right thing in getting someone else to cut the silage for you. I understand what you said about carrying the phone at all times and sometimes dreading when it rings. At the moment, your phone probably feels as heavy as a trailer full of silage in your pocket. For the sake of anyone out there who feel some kind of obligation and 'must' that you have to do everything yourself, well as Adrian demonstrated, no, you don't. Only the job needs doing, but delegating or paying someone else to do it is perfectly okay.
Great footage adrian hats off to you you are one hell of a gower !!!
Nice to see it finished. It has been a challenging year so faar
Great job by all involved, especially you and your family in sheeting up. 'Someone' knew that you needed a bit extra help, so the wind eased. Best Wishes to you and your family. Take care.
Them Kane trailers are some piece of equipment they hold some grass. Great video Adrian 👍🏻
That red Herron trailer was something else
cracking job adrian, your contractors really are the business, especially the guy on the pit, covering of the pit also really neat, will be good to see the quality when uncovered, but i would say a text book example of how to make silage !!
great to see the whole family mucking in at the end.
i am sure it isnt but you you really make everything look so easy
best wishes to family and look forward to the next video
Great to have the family to help with the covering 👍.
Good luck and best wishes to your Parents. We had to get Dad out of Hospital to Celebrate his 91st birthday on Saturday.
We are all trying to make the house accessible to get him home. Mum (90 now) hates the changes but now is coming around slliwly.😊
Thanks for the videos. 😊
Hi lad that was a great job with your sliage class video 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hi to Ivan (and you all) from Ivan from Croatia
❤❤VIDEO ❤❤I really enjoy this ❤❤you have a great attitude ❤❤
Jazus I’ve never seen such a big grass cutter! Here in Fl we could use it! Ha. Love listening to you…never mind watching! Great fam.
We too are very cold for this time of year. Prince George BC Canada had a real hot spell at the beginning of spring then it rained and remained colder until now we seem to be getting warmer consistantly. It helps with forest fires so we will take it but my garden wants to grow lol. :) :) Alot of hard work Adrian and family that wasn't easy have a great summer kids. :)
Great to get it in Adrian. This spring seems never ending with the weather we are all just surviving..
Well done Adrian and more so the entire family on sheeting up so well- it's a job everybody hates, the wind always picks up from what was a calm day, but you got it right..and many hands make light work!!
Silage 2024 is complete. Cracking job Adrian
Crops get cut faster, but still never fast enough when you're up against the weather. Nice footage Adrian and here's to hoping all well with family
Hi Adrian great video and great silage scenes also one hell of a crop of grass.😀👍👍👍
Another cracking video looks like you have a great crop of grass Adrian 👍👍👍🦌
Team work makes the dream work 🚜🚜🚜🚜💨💨💨💨💨
Another great video! The first cut is always rewarding... Take care and beside...
Good man Adrian. I figured how the wind died down by last soundbite of the video at the very end, you had divine intervention! Heard you calling JC to come hold the plastic! 😂
Well done on the fodder. She's in and that's all that matters. Kudos to the clann for still pitching in.
Great video Adrian,its a good feeling having the majority of winter feed in,and slurry out to get grass growing again.
Great job Adrian, hard to bate the Latton lads at the silage
Another great video has always Adrian and family 👍
Another great video, sillage done and dusted must be a nice feeling!
Great video.God bless the work . Hope you’re parents are doing well
Think your wise getting the contractors in, they can do the job in a 1/3 of the time and that's completed and in the pit. Really good that the family came out to help, fingers crossed that next years sileage is really good. 👍
Hey that was amazing video ❤ keep up the amazing work
Every one is getting good crop of hay or silege . Or both I am glad for you .
I realy admire you farmers .
Good , glad your trying to take care of yourself .I burned myself out and been sick for a year do to exhaustion, and stress problem so do take care of yourself .
It's been a hard year for many a farmer .
Hats off to you .take care . Thankyou for the vidios .
No wind equals God's favor!
You are very smart to know your limits Adrian! Not everyone can do that. Thank you for sharing.🐄
Great job Adrian, big relief to have the 1st cut secured.. that lad has some serious plant lad.. can see you buying a fendt next.. 😜
Have one already, it’s on the mantle peace 😉
@IFarmWeFarm haha, Savage. same as that I'm afraid 1.32 scale.. 😁
Beautiful silage clamp!!! My ancesters from Ireland had a farm in North Carolina in the 1700s. They had 13 kids and only 2 were boys. I'll bet the girls did a lot of farm work!!!
Great video your heifers are looking well
Thanks for the show guys 🍻
Hopefully the fibre is on its way to your house-NBI I would guess. Got it here last October and it has been fantastic - We will expect more videos now.😀
They have the wires all in so hopefully get connected soon, we have wireless broadband but it’s that congested it’s pretty much useless got. Takes 6-7 hours to upload a video, can only do so between 12am and 6am or it will drop off and disconnect. Not sure how it works but it’s Vodafone who came knocking on the door. 1 Gig for €50 per/m for fibre. Paying near €60 at present for the other.
It will be a game changer if it works as they say.
@@IFarmWeFarm Adrian, the NBI+Vodafone has been rock solid for me over here near Carrickmacross even during the storms over the winter. Night and day difference from that 60euro package I was also on.
Great video/jobs Adrian 👍💯 although Wully Wind was trying to stick his neb in🤨
Aww great 💡💯 getting the grass fellas in👍 Big shout out to all your family for "all hands on deck" covering up the pit😇🥰
Have a wonderful day Adrian and family ❤
Excellent video 😊
Great job and great to see a good quality clamp of silage
Love the videos adrian keep it up
Amazing ❤
Another great video Adrian. I am glad you got help. You have so much responsibility and so many depend on you. You need to take care of your self. Cheers to you and your lovely family. ❤️
Hang in there, Sir! No storm lasts forever! Enjoy the time of year and just concentrate on what can be controlled 👊😎
That’s very true
Great to get it in dry this year Adrian,cant beat the help especially covering the pit,another great video👍
Great video, that's a grand pit to work on, fine machinery.
Great video, glad you got all your silage in and slurry out. The winds have been stronger and colder than normal this year, I am glad you confirmed that! I am still using fleece covers on my vegetable garden to protect new plantings from the wind and cold. You are right it is June but not as we know it 🙂. Living on the Isle of Man we get similar weather to you and the flat north of the island has been getting a battering from these north winds. Fingers crossed for some better weather in the next few months. Take care of yourself.
Great job there especially when Mother Nature decides to mess you about, you’re absolutely right to take a load off yourself when you can, the trick is recognise when you need to do so.
All the very best to you and your family 👍
Great video Adrian glad to see the grass in without to much hassle also how many acres where done? And also I think a holiday is in order for you and your amazing family 😁
Your definitely my favourite alone with the other boy cornick with the 2 you boys ❤ from northern Ireland
Brilliant video 😊
Great video Adrian and a great job getting the silage in 💪👌
Great job!!
Great team work there, pressure of a bit now too with it in the pit. Take care everyone
Great video Great felling when you finaly silage cut & jn and covered 👏
Great bit of kit the mower
Hard to believe its june -bi polar weather ,yes luck came to you exactly when you needed it ...thank god
Dear Adrian, could you and Sinead make a workable plan to include dedicated time off AWAY from the farm, as a recurring event in your lives? Sounds impossible, but I think the two of you could make a workable plan and execute it. Life is lived in stages. Each stage has its specific requirements. Ignore that reality to your peril. Wishing you and Sinead relief, and being surrounded by family love.
Hugs from Minnesota!
We’re going on holidays soon, it’s many years overdue. You can get into a habit of taking no time off very easily and we are guilty there for sure. We had a discussion about this only a few days ago and realised how wrong that is.
Just have to find a good farm relief milker to fill in now
@@IFarmWeFarmI know a good farm relief milker !!
Very interesting video Adrian 📹
Great vid.. glad its in and slurrys out . Take 5 .. stay safe 🏴
Cheers, that's some rig.
Fine Soft Irish Weather 🇮🇪💚💪
Looks like you’ve a good crop. Nice the wind let off for you to get the sheeting done.
Great to have it on the pit. I used to hate covering the pit, either piking manure or moving wet dirty tyres. Love the driving though 😂
People should never be afraid to ask for help as it will take the pressure of and make life easier for all. 🤠👍
It’s just a stubbornness most of us farmer carry, I’m definitely one of them
Good stuff
good video
Great video Great outfit nice 2 have it in
Great job Lucky with wind dry out
Nice one enjoyed 🚜👍🏴
I live in the centre of Ennis, Co. Clare. We have Sky Broadband. It is a great job to be fair. We are averaging about 20 Megabits Per Second download speed, 30 Megabits Per Second upload speed and 9 MS Latency, taken off a speed test at 7:30 AM if that makes any difference.
Great silage video!! Great to have the grass dry too! That's the kinda silage pit Contractors love making I'd say 🤔
Crazy wind and weather
Great job done
Do you put a second cut in the pit or bales
Bales are very expensive
Good luck with the year ahead
6:24 The National Broadband Network in Australia was meant to be Firer-optic Cable, but in many places as a Cost Cutting Measure it remained Copper Cable. Promised Heaven, delivered Hell.
I never did any research on this one, we put in wireless broadband a few years back. Was great for the first 6 months but deteriorated rapidly after that, we rang about it to complain several times but got knowhere. So decided to cancel it! That word cancel changed things, they came out and changed the router and made a few little adjustments and “bingo” we were back like the beginning at over 50mb. 3 months later it’s unusable again and costing a fortune a month.
We’re getting less than 2mb at times so only happy to try something else. 🤞🤞
@@IFarmWeFarm The reason regional house prices in Australia never took off up until recently was the lack of reliable / fast internet connection . Elon Musk and star link changed all that . The fibre optic was installed by the government but very few people upgraded their connection from the house to the street connection point hence the old telephone copper wire . It’s akin to driving a Ferrari with the handbrake on :)
Adrian what is the difference in making pit silage as opposed to baling it. I notice you do both so what is the cost difference. Thank you for the video
I miss the silage cutting, a fine set up Mr Chambers has, great work by all Adrian, keep at her Lad!
