Always good when James and Mr Ward join up. Not at all surprised at your 60 job applications. With you James at the helm, the quality and range of the business plus the farming techniques used , the quality of the machines you have and the pride that comes through with all of your team. It says a lot about you and your business.
Bit late checking in on you James,,,, great and interesting video,, absolutely perfect shed , great to see all machines parked and shiny in the shed, fascinating to hear about the mustard seeds very interesting, look forward to more this year 👍👍🍻
Fantastic vid to start the New Year.....great banter with yourself and 'Wardy' (watch him also) Heartening to hear so many have applied for your job. Always interesting to listen to what's actually involved in the cleaning of grain/ mustard, etc when it's in the shed. Well done.....keep it up! 👌
Evening James, happy new year. Great video, really enjoyed watching and and listening to you. Great to see Andrew with you, I think you need to get Micheal in a video with Andrew to talk about crops and field work. Thanks James, looking forward to Sundays.
Very interesting blog James good to see you back I remember when I was a young lad being taught by a old lad who had been on the farm for years . Not in farming now but the things he taught me were I still remember priceless.
Happy New Year! Good to have you back, great video! Would you consider doing some videos with other contractors you work alongside on there farms, And the ones that have helped you out.
Happy New Year James. Re Glynn training up someone, I learnt plenty from you when I did the Summer on the straw weigh bridge , stuff I still use today,mainly around tidiness etc. Best of luck for 2025
Good to have you back and here's to a successful 2025. Hopefully we have better weather although this week has been a bit grim in the East Midlands with lots of local flooding. I wonder how many farms have a medium/long term plan? I recall on earlier videos you have an aim/ambition to farm 20k acres and it was interesting to hear you speak about planned investments in buildings and machinery over the next few years. Certainly keeping plant/machinery pays dividends. A contractor I work with always has spotless machinery (large excavators/dumpers etc) and he always maintains that the trade in value of his kit is always above the general market value. Good that in true farming style you continue to mix metric and imperial. 12m wide sheds with 1 inch fall!!
I watched this a few days ago and was intrigued by the content, made me chuckle in places. The problem with training and ultimately skill levels is that no one has the time to invest in teaching people how to do the job properly. Everything needs to be done yesterday. At this rate skill levels and 'field craft' (no pun intended) will drop and long term will be watered down. I was lucky and had the benefit of working with the old school boys. If employers don't spare time to show newbies how to do jobs properly, how can they learn properly. You mention the ventilation in your spray shed, but the old threshing barns had doors at each side to create a draft to assist with the winnowing effect sepperating the grain and chaff. On the down side of that, if you have a windy day and don't want a draft, you'll need the ventilation or extraction!
Happy New Year to you all at px but James ya really need til sort out ya mic for some reason ya volume level is very low if it wasn't for wardies mic we wouldn't of heard ya ,👍👍
Happy new year and welcome back 😀 Here’s a question for James. Is it possible in 2025 for someone without any capital earned somewhere else or inherited land to start farming? I’d be curious to hear James’ thoughts on that and what possible pathways into the industry could look like? Contracting maybe? Or via sheep with rented grazing? Are council farms still an option? Or via some obscure niche? Or is employment on a progressive and established setup like PX the only option for someone without serious backing behind them to grow food for people?
Family run delaerships from decades ago have mostly sold out leaving the bigger and not necessarly better "chain store" corporate type entities. Are these entities downsizing leading to closures?
Happy New Year James you must get together with Andrew more often you are such a good double act but on a more serious note both of you put details of farming into the public eye for those that think farming is 9 to 5 and 5 days a week ,keep the videos coming as l have said before much better than watching the rubbish we have to pay for on the T V.
James I would like to apply for the vacant job....forget about those young uns go for age..I will be 72 this year so got a long future ahead I'm sure we could go places together 😂😂😂
As an 81 year old ex-arable foreman I have always enjoyed your posts and congratulate you on your forward thinking farming techniques. However despite wearing hearing-aids I am having difficulty hearing clearly some of the dialogue in the latest posts.For example in your most recent post I could barely understand what the bank manager was saying, although I must say "Waffling Wardy" came across loud and clear. I think the volume needs turning up a little!
25000 tractors down to 12000. Has the horsepower doubled? It’s the same amount of energy to work the same amount of land. Farms have doubled the HP and halved the staff.
obviously not bothering with food production as solar farms going up left , right and centre .movable louvers for air flow in sides , with bird/ insect protection on rear. replaces yorkshire boarding .
Interesting as always video, it appears the future outlook for the arable sector looks less certain than the Livestock sector. Which on the whole have seen produce prices increase with the added advantage of lower feed prices. Which ever type of farming your in the cost of reinvestment as soared the last few years with the uncertainty with the current government over grants continuing to help cover these projects demanded by the EA ect,all takes a strong stomach to plan ahead but the alternative for a farm business could be much worse. Poor cousin Michael always getting it in the neck one day he'll bite back! But it's only light hearted banter😂.
Farmer. Buy everything at retail. Sell everything at wholesale. Tractor manufacturers have raised their prices 50% since Covid. Please tell me what Ag business can afford that.

Looking forward to seeing the Chem/Spray Shed area in full Operation! 🚜 Expect it will become a time/$ saver with the efficiencies achieved.
P.S best wishes and good health to you all❤😊👍👍
Hi James Happy new year Thanks again
Brilliant
so true if your not lucky enough to be born into farming finding people who will actually let you gain experience is very hard
Happy New Year to you all at px but James ya really need til sort out ya mic for some reason ya volume level is very low if it wasn't for wardies mic we wouldn't of heard ya ,👍👍

James it might be an idea to removè any air filters on machines not in use. The filters contain soya, the rats love it.
Hi James Happy New year,
Are you going to insulate the new sprayer shed to protect the sprayers and chemicals from frost in the winter.
Love your videos, but the sound is sometimes very low.
James I would like to apply for the vacant job....forget about those young uns go for age..I will be 72 this year so got a long future ahead I'm sure we could go places together 😂😂😂
The shed of dreams looks awesome but is the shed floor eventually going to get concreted

good video
Good video but terrible sound quality especially when there was a back ground noise .
You’re just like the SAS James , you like shiny stuff ,
Do you think you might do some PX Farms Hoodies at sometime cheers

HSBC " insights" - make more money for their shareholders, pretty simple. 😊
Where you been ? Assumed I was blocked 😂

Which bank do you use James? HSBC?
C Hoare and Co
Too much strain for my poor old ears I'm afraid so regrettably I have to sit this one out, but look forward to the next. 😀
shame the audio is so poor but never mind cant stick the bloke on the right hes mr knoe it all but never gets nothing done all talk
Great to see you back in front of the camera James, a breath of fresh air at a time when the industry appears to be under the cosh 👏👏
