It's nice to see a farmer local to me , being very informative and full of knowledge and passing it on and educating and see what the land around is doing, thank you
Thank You, Andrew, for taking the time to produce this Video, and also for supporting British Produce. You would think after all these years, the issue with the Union Jack would have been sorted out , it just should,nt be allowed to put that on Non home produced products!
Exactly. Our gov just don’t care.
Due to watching your latest update i have emailed Tate and Lyle to ask why they have the British flag on a foreign product, I will see what answer i get if any! Interesting update as always Mr Ward.
Thank you, will be interesting if you get a response!
Only seemes like 5 minutes ago when you filmed last years crop being lifted ! I'm looking forward to see how the crop is processed at the factory. Thank you for taking the time & effort to make these video's
Thanks Gareth, I know, time flies. I don’t have a date yet for the factory visit but I will do it.
Nice 👌 👌
Just a thought, do you think silver spoon are missing a trick , the union jack is on the top of the bag, fairly hard to see when its on the supermarket shelf, the tate and lyle bag has it on the front where it can be seen easily, when people are shopping and see this, more easily it's easy to see why they think it's local, Has silver spoon got the package wrong and need a re design to promot the british product better,
Good point and you might be right. I’ll bring it to their attention, thanks.
Another Great Informative Video promoting BRITISH Agriculture 👍
Good vib, glad to see the operator was awake on the havester, going under the wires, something to sort.
Very informative video thankyou for posting.
A trip around the sugar beet factory would be good to see. I went round the factory at Kidderminister many years ago, alos went round one in Norfolk when I was at Agricultural College.(A long time ago)
👌😃
Great to see sugar beet campaign under way and sugar products. Love Nala at end of video with head on headrest in back. Hope you get your chosen tractor soon
She’s a cracking dog, so chilled out for one so young. Hope good news re the tractor very soon!
Thanks again Andrew that was very informative I remember pulling beet by hand and that was back breaking
The root is so deep it would be hard work!
Decent looking beet there Wardy! When I drill my beet I drive 8" narrow every 8 breeds (3m drill, 24m sprayer) so that I create a 72" track every 24m for the sprayer.
Very simple way of putting TL’s in. 👌😃
Some machine massive output beet use to be big crop in Ireland now just fodder beet here
Good operator on the beet machine Andrew, I see he dropped his discharge elevator when he went under the power lines. 👍
He did, he’s been driving it for quite a while.
Great video as always, we stopped growing sugar beet years ago when they shut the factory near us. Use to be a enjoyable job this time of year.
It’s getting better again now. Next year is going to be £40/ton, but it needs to be.
Love these videos Andrew, always very informative, iv been in and around farming all my life 57yr but due to illness am now retired, I do miss farming so much and your videos help with my mental health, thanks again for the great content 👌👌👌
Same with me! Apparently I was 3 when I said I wanted to farm.
Still do but I'm a spinal injury.
Thanks Steven, sorry to hear you’ve been struggling and pleased these videos help.
Great beet harvesting video Andrew. Hope the jd does you well on the drill. Great to see nala doing quality control.
Quality control!!!!
Good video andrew,as you said last week after the rain,perfect conditions👍
Thanks Nige, hope you’re ok.
Great conditions for harvesting , that’s going work nice 👍
It will but the beet has taken nearly all the moisture out the soil.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard I’d like to see the Jd 410 wheeled tractor pulling your simba solo through that
So would I but we’re waiting for a drawbar pin bush.
Thanks 👍
👍
Great video again Andrew. I completely agree with you about the Union Jack 🇬🇧 it should only be on produce that has been produced in the Uk ! A job for the NFU to get there hands round !
The gov don’t seem to care but it’s misleading the public. Oh hang on, that’s what they’ve done for years!
Great video thank you 👍
Great video, thank you 👍
Great video fantastic harvester 👍
nice to get the facts
Love your channel Wardy. Keep it up mate
Cheers Jonathan.
Great vlog and educational as usual Mr Ward 👍
Pleased you enjoyed it Richard.
Good video Andrew as always, will agree food not produced in this country shouldn't have the UK flag on it .
The issue of using UK branding being used on products simply packaged in this country is outrageous. It applies in many areas of production and needs to be addressed. Totally misleading.
I know, I’m constantly bringing it up with our MP and with Defra when I have Zoom calls with them. They say they’ll address it but nothing changes.
another great video hope your planting soon new kit a nightmare to get
It really is. Good job the weather is still dry!
Would it be possible to do a sugar beet factory tour as a follow on to the life of sugar
That is planned! 👍😃
When I did sugar beet we used tramlines and I worked out that the four rows around the two missing tramline rows were a little bit heavier about a quarter more in weight so you only lost the equivalent to one row I use to lift ours with a single row tanker I could get across and back on normal rows for a tank full but if I took a normal row and a tramline row I could only get 3/4 of the way back
Brilliant info. Thanks. We used to use one of those lifters!
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard it was an armor salmon single row I lifted 140 acres and carted them into bury factory with a tractor and trailer that was my winter job
Agree fully about the labelling and the use of the union jack coupled with clever wording its almost fraud shame they are allowed to get away with it ,If I remember correctly Tate and Lyle were well up the league of single farm payment recipients ,Not as that has anything to do with the labelling but a shame they couldn't play the game and lead by example
I know, it’s not good enough.
CheerZ ma man be telling plenty about that dodgers we the sugar packing
keep promoting UK produces
The half spoon has gone from 2,15 pence up to 2,80p in my local sainsbury!!!😠
😖😖
Great to see the sugar beet coming up , I have a couple of questions, firstly as it’s coming up fairly clean in good conditions will you still use the cleaning hopper elevator to load the lorries to knock clean and secondly can they use the harvester any other product to lift out of the ground
The harvester can only be used for beet and we will still use the cleaner loader, it just improves the load quality.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard brilliant thank you
Love seeing the sugar beet, as it's so amazing the volume of crop you harvest from the field. I'm growing wheat and oats this year on my allotment and would love to grow some sugar beet as a trial. Do you know much about the process of getting sugar from the beet, and do you think this would be possible to achieve at home? Also, where might be the best place to get a small handful of seed? Might I be able to purchase a very small amount from yourself? :)
I could post you a few seeds in an envelope, FOC. Not sure you’d be able to get the sugar out at home, it’s quite a detailed process in the factory.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard thank you very much that would be super. What’s the best way to contact you with my address? Understood regarding extracting the sugar! Would be interesting to grow either way!
Are you on Twitter? If so could DM me.
Hello Jacob. Rhonda is messaging you on FB and she’ll send my mobile so you can call me for any help you need.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard amazing thanks very much!
how many acres of beets does the typical farmer raise in your area? is it common to have contractors plant and harvest? where I raise beets in the US average is 500 acres of beets and nobody contracts planting or harvest
It varies. We all have a certain number of tons on contract to British sugar. There’s a huge variation in yields so 2 farmers having the same tons contract will have different number of acres to grow those tons. We have a 4600 ton contract and try to fill that with only 140 acres.
I take it someone must grow sugar beet for seed in the UK as well.
I’m fairly sure it’s all green in France.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard oh right I see, is there a video of the sugar beet being made into sugar.
How is the seed harvested Andrew? I'm presuming by combine?
Yes it is.
I’m going into the factory in the winter to show that. It’s so interesting it’ll need to be over 2 weeks.
Thanks. Very interesting, no beet in my part of the country. RE drilling: You said you contract the drilling also, do they use a special drill? Cheers.
Yes, it’s a very expensive specialist drill. It’s featured in video number 38
There’s two 8RX at Ben burgess at Ellington could they not of got you one of those and then when you’re came they could of had it 🤔
Someone else told me about those 2.
There still there this morning I’ve just been past there
Great video as always, do you clean the beet again as you load it, or is it good to go? - One more, is the by-product sugar beet pulp still available as a cattle feed?
We will still put it over a cleaner as the lorries are loaded, no matter how good the conditions are at lifting, soil and trash will still come out. Yes, beet pulp still available for livestock feed.
Is this the field you added some of last years seed to or is that a different field and was it the same variety?
Last years seed? You mean beet?
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard no you had some seed left over from last year that you added to this years planting but it didn’t have the same dressing ( it was green as opposed to blue )
Aah, I’m with you now. No, it was another field.
All products should have the flag of the country of origin. Not where its packed.
It's totally misleading and I bet there's no traceability now it's in that bag?
The nfu should be raising these issues! I wonder if they are?
Totally agree. Not sure re NFU
