How're the robots treating you? Hopefully a update soon? 😁

Great video. Be careful of flying debri while filming. Nice job there

Out of interest, how many acres do you farm - and how many cattle? Thanks for the videos - I'm finding them very interesting. I think you are in N Devon?

What’s your average litres per cow if you don’t mind me asking

They're like proper meditation walks really! 🙃 And Jack, you have to gear up John properly! 😜 Give the man an extended mic!

Thanks for the video Jack and it was great to hear from Jon about the grazing system. I totally agree with allowing the cows out to grass when its available as I think it helps with foot health as well as overall health and milk yield.

Won't the Astronaut sort the "bully" cows and direct them to the pasture after milking...thus allowing the more quiet/timid "ladies" their opportunity to be milked?...Enjoyed the paddock tour John! THANK YOU!

Can you actually graze kale while milking via robots? I have been on the understanding that kale/ brassicas can taint milk in cows if cows are milked immediately afterward grazing kale as sort of need a break between feeding and milking which can’t be done via robots. I look forward to seeing how this works 🤔 Glad the grazing is working well. I also graze with robots and it suits our cows and system.

good vid jack cows prob love the music in the backround aha

I love it how the whole family is involved in the production of the vids now! 😃👏🏻 As for the bales... I reckon there will be 59. 🪄

Great video Jon and lovely to see your family enjoying the crop and the sun. Jack I reckon about 84 bales from the field and good info on the Red Mites.

75 bales

79

I think 85 bales

67 bales. Should make some lovely fodder and cows will go nuts for it

Our wholecrop was dreadful this year, but we do undersow it with grass so that competes with it a bit. Don't you think rowing it up knocks a lot of the grains off?

I think 70

Always good to see New Holland tractors at work you can't beat them

Great video 👏👏 I really like the view from the back of the trailer looking forward 💯

what length is your bale trailer

Maybe you can put all the bales up, into a big new pyramid! As a modern art farmer's landscape installation! As something fresh for the visitors of the Abbey, the hikers on the coastal path and supported by the AONB. Wonder what they will say! 😄😆😜

Good one Jack,looks like you have the same crap weather as us in Ireland.

Great video Jack,I was wondering cause my New Holland dealer is handling Quike loaders,the loader on your t5 is the number a q46 or is that q4d just wondering to see if my dealer can get one thanks have a blessed evening

A real busy day Jack, just a pity about the weather this year. Watching this reminded me of how tight some of the lanes and roads are down your way, but its still a beautiful part of the country. Thanks for the video.

love it jack keep up the gd work cant wait till harvest

🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

The shelborne mixer is a good mixer very handy having a good mixer wagon something that needs to be used everyday should be strong and reliable and the shelborne should ✅ the box 👍🏻

I think tonight I will dream about a giant mixing bowl and the enormous cake I can bake with it! 😆

Also eliminates a serious proportion of bullying as absolutely no point in cows barging into a feed area to defend one spot where a better bale is when all feed is exactly the same and therefore heifers will also look after themselves considerably better and produce to potential and get in calf more timely as life’s less stressful for them.

Thanks Jack & Jon for the video and a look at the demo feed wagon which seems a solid unit. I think the potential for herd improvements speak for themselves in that you can feed a balanced and consistent TMR, reduce feeding times and reduce wastage, but it has to be weighed against the investment required to purchase. The overall improvement for milk yield/volumes and herd health speak for themselves and there is plenty of statistics out there to support it..

the bull is like you jack aha when u walk around bideford or somwhere all the lasses come for you ahaha

Always something to do on farm great job 👍👍

"Because that's what he's like." 😂 I'm still confused tho, how are John and you related? 🤔 Also, I hope he will make the vid on the history of the farm. 🙃

Terrible hay fever here as well. Pills and eye drops and nose spray for me.

Thanks for the video Jack, and yes cattle a the best escape artists in the world, and its always from where you least expect it.

6:50 Bless you! We farmers are made of something different! 😉👍

Good work you two!! Cows will be happy!!💪👍👏👏👏👏👏

Thanks for the video Jack and glad to see you getting some great yields from your silage. I feel for you and your hay fever, as it can be a real issue for many. Hope you are feeling better. Thanks from Scotland.

👍

I suffer from hay fever as well Jack. It is a pain. Lol. See you soon. X

great shots

The GoPro wasn't having any of it. 😝 For the camera: personally I'd say normal and not wide - if you film the context in the same shot, the actual action shot is more steady imho. So you're a magician now as well, aren't you? What else have you moved or made dissappear with a fingertwitch? 👀😁🪄

Thanks for the Video Jack. In my younger years from about 9/10 y/o, one of my favourite jobs was tedding which I loved, as I was always kept off school which was great too 😂. It was amazing that all my sick days seemed to coincide with busy days on the farm lol. I really like that Shelbourne Spreader as you can clearly see as you spread what the spread pattern is. Thanks

Great video Jack always good to see a New Holland working you cant beat them

Great video Jack with some really good camera shots. The look on your face when the rain had started just said it all! Thanks for taking us along and I hope you have a good yield from the first cut.

🌧Jack is NOT happy(10:14).....⛈️

Mowing is just so satisfying, isn't it. How on earth did you manage filming within the machine tho? 😬 Very nice vid, can almost smell the fresh Northern Devon grass here! 🪄

Good video can u make a video washing the t7 if u get time

Always good to see a new holland working

Good job 👍 👏
