AN EXPLOSION OF POO... ALL I WANTED TO DO IS MAKE GRASS GROW!

[@TomPembertonFarmLife]

Hey Team, I know I said in the video but I’m so sorry about the the audio crackling in a bit of the video. I’m working on the issue by getting a new set up. Fingers crossed it works 😊 Thank you so much for the support as always, your the best! 🙌🐄💩🚜

[@SmithyScotland]

Think today's issue might have been caused by the high level of background noise. If you press record it tries to level it out - including your voice.

Most people never understand all the things that happen and problems farmers deal with and don’t appreciate what it takes to produce the food we eat. Keep up the good work Wisconsin here

[@TomPembertonFarmLife]

Thankyou so much for the nice comment 😊

[@Sarcasticallyinspired]

Couldn't care less about the audio issues tbh. For me, it doesn't take away from the good content. Whatever works for you, and makes your life easier. I've said it before and I'll say it again, seeing the cycles of stuff on the farm, grass into cow, cow into slurry, slurry onto grass, it seriously interesting and great stuff.

Thankyou so much 😊

Literally I could listen to the ginger warrior talk all day long. Great video Tom 💯

[@johnpowell239]

Great video Tom, the bit of rain helped enormously with the dribblebar , proof will be in the next cut. Always happy for the Ginger Warrior's in put, learning all the time.

It has been decades since I have visited a dairy farm or worked with cow poo, yet when I see this operation the smell is alive and well in my head. It takes a lot of soap to get rid of the smell. Awesome operation.

These vacuum tankers seem popular around you with manual hoses. I never see anyone like that. Hydraulically driven pump crane with screw or centrifugal pump for unloading is like a vacuum tanker is for you.

[@EssexFarmingPhotography]

Great video Tom

[@davidfeatch1436]

In the calf shed, and pit, wash it out using a big pressure hose, the water will help 'loosen' the chunky stuff at the bottom of the pit and you get more slurry.

[@michaelcollins6851]

Man Thomas I didn't think you would get that whole pit out on all your land good work guys

[@terryhobbs2038]

I watch these thinking, that's how my Lancashire farm laborer ancestors might have sounded. Love it.

[@brendanoneill1466]

It is amazing how something as simple as the dribble bar and some bubles make the slurry that much better. Will be really interesting as time moves on how much of a difference there is in your 'til expenditure. I know with the prices always going up it will be reflected more in the amount and not the cost, but still...every little bit.

Sewing a lot of white clover will make up some of that slurry shortfall I reckon. It's truly remarkable how much nitrogen they can fix per acre.

[@barrytipton1179]

Lucky e white heather migh be profitable

[@FerryFalco]

@@barrytipton1179 nitrogen = beef. Lucky heather = Travelling Markets

[@deborahharvey6017]

Can't sow clover and make money. Cost of seeds way too high. Clover plants would take up the space that the grass would grow. Not comparable harvastable mass. They still have to empty the slurry bin. The poo has to go somewhere so more poo can be added. Legumes/clover do make a lot of N but just not practical or economical for this application.

[@thetessellater9163]

@@deborahharvey6017 - you sound like you know what you're talking about Deb, are you a farmer, or agronomist?

[@deborahharvey6017]

Did not mean for it to sound so authorative. Was just light heartedly stating a few facts. No matter what side of the pond you live, facts of farming present multiple dilemmas and options and obstacles to producing a product at a profit. Hardest job on earth. Grew up on a farm. Have been a landscape designer/consultant/gardener in big city for 41 years. Have little farmette in country. Neighbors are cows and farmers. Recently discussed fertilizer/nitrogen cost issue/options with neighbor.

[@danielbyrne9027]

Tom the best way to get that thick stuff out is to fill up a tanker with water and use a 2 inch pipe to wash it down trough the slats then stuck it out and flush it in again

Humic acid is a wonderful thing for soil, I wish I could send you enough to spray a field to test on. I wouldn't want to pay VAT on that though. Root development would increase significantly, letting your grass get thicker and taller.
