PX FARMS VERY PROFESSIONAL FARMER'S UP THE FARMERS 💯🇬🇧.🤙🦊

[@peterwilson-qj2ds]

Good update as always James, great to see everything getting cleaned & serviced before being put away. The shed of dreams is looking better every time you show us, will be a great place to keep your machines when complteted.

[@simonbaskett6992]

Great update James shed is looking good, still looks very busy for December, looking forward to your ctf video, we'll done team PX

[@andykeeble1]

Fantastic update thank you James. Adult mental health in men is a real concern of mine having lost a 34 year old nephew to suicide 6 years ago. It is the biggest killer of adult men under the age of 55 in Europe, yes it is that bad. Personally and as a result of an accident, I have suffered from PTSD since 1998 and is something that does tend to run my life. The biggest help for me was talking, not something that most men are good at. Its a cliche but "it is ok not to be ok". Look after those around you and encourage them to talk.

[@PX_Farms]

Good point

[@AndyJ5431]

Well said and very true Andy. 🇬🇧🚜👍

[@laytonphillips6667]

Great video, typical water board carry on, shed looks great.

[@adrianlayen4119]

Thanks James, great update. Good to see the shed near completion. Nice to see all the machinery getting cleaned. I was wondering about problems with water sitting in bearings on the combine.

[@davidnorris6262]

Hello James, another interesting top quality video, Thank you for the great work you and your team do cheers.

[@kevingovier5090]

Great video James 👍 machines looking very smart after another hard seasons work, noticed sandy looking forward to get them all in HIS shed of dreams 🤪 🍻

[@Nicknofish]

Great video, as always, James. I love the tech and machinery involved. It's a little different from the 165 multi power massey i used to use! Cheers .

[@colinwaters2725]

Top tractor in the day😊 Nick

[@richardmatthews3304]

Good thing about a bit of livestock farming is going to the market and finding somebody who's had a worse harvest or lambing than yourself😂 it's good to talk

[@gerardleathem7659]

Bridgestone are technically correct. But if it’s only one tyre and on one outer edge of the tyre and not both sides it points to the tyre not running the load through the center of the tyre. This could be the alignment being off or a suspension issue. If you let me know if it’s wheel position and if it’s inside or outside tread tearing I can point you to which is the most likely cause. It’s unlikely to be a pressure issue as you run a very well maintained operation.

[@graemelaing1354]

Looking forward to the CTF talk on Sunday - that will be very interesting!!

[@Ivor-g1i]

I got rid of bridgcrap tyres this year 2yrs old so rough to sit on so traded em in with 85% still left on em when we took em off they were just starting to split at joint on inside.they looked perfect on outside.best of luck with warranty

[@MichaelSloyan-t8r]

Excellent video, I really admire how you manage what I presume is a multi million pound business with all the trials and tribulations of weather associated problems, machinery repair and dealing with other businesses that you can walk your yard and speak to employees or visiting workers in a friendly manner and know their names. I have seen small businesses where the boss wouldn't know the first name of employees after 8- 10 yrs , I firmly believe being called your christian name makes you believe you are part of the work family and you have a greater interest in the progress of the business

[@DJC995]

Hi James & Team Nice one Thanks again

[@MalcolmGreves]

James, you have some great guys around you and without doubt, Sandy is the pick! You are the positive image of modern farming - just keep doing it and to heck with those who want trees and wild flowers.

[@gunton21]

Another great and interesting update. Thankyou

[@stacyscholes6760]

Great vid as always all the best to u all for Christmas 🎄

[@EdwardMoore-so6zp]

Well done

[@peterclarke3300]

Great update James it looked like you were surprised with the volume mustard,being dried and that tyre looks like a manufacture flaw with just the odd cleat coming,off its just trying to prove it,the new building is coming along nicely 👍👍

[@chrismarshall45]

Great video as always, On the tyre issue I’ve had the exactly the same on trelborgs, I’ve found that Michelin are by far the best, although a little expensive but as my grandfather used to say ....".you get what you pay for”

[@billharcourt5950]

As always excellent update, i have had issues with an electric company and now gone to the ombudsman and unfortunately some of the people working are totally inept.

[@garrystrachan5745]

Great video as always James,Where i work we have fan invertors fitted for the likes of Osr and Oats where we need to regulate Rpm and minimise product loss.We dry over 100k tonnes annually.

[@PX_Farms]

Good idea

[@AndyJ5431]

Sandy is becoming quite a pro with his presentations., well done Sandy. He highlighted a big problem of stand in combine drivers not being up to the mark. ! Poor Griff was like a rabbit in the headlights when Sandy put him on the spot asking him to describe his role. ( I did feel for him, it was like the first time I was asked to do a driving commentary on my advanced driving course, when travelling at speed). Great presentation and a very educational update, especially the new drying equipment you have installed. Ever moving forwards. 🇬🇧🚜👍

[@robmullens5878]

James why have you not got roof lights in the new shed?

[@markyoull6744]

great stuff james

[@russellswann2450]

New Trimble system with a modem and automatic switching. Best GPS I've ever used..

[@chrislee2221]

Good update, to me the tyre lugs looked like a manufacturer fault to me. Shed of dreams really coming on now, how big will the second shed of dreams be ?

[@mattharte7334]

Very interesting update the fifth combine must be worth its weight in gold. The combines look nice and clean and I’m wondering if you wax them as a farm I worked on, to mitigate fire risks, used to wax the combines before harvest so dust didn’t settle. The new building is coming along nicely hope you can crack on soon with the concreting!

[@richardbaker22]

Great video James

[@paulbarnes3791]

How does the cost balance between the cost of rtk satellite kitting out tractors etc and subscriptions the amount spent as opposed the old overdrill and spray losses on the bout marker old school system

[@colinwaters2725]

Who said that 😂

[@nigelphillips9426]

Good informative video thanks

[@simonjupp3166]

Have you thought of a bore hole so not dependent on a water company?

[@adrianhutchin4925]

Another informative episode and well done - have you thought of carbon filter system for the spray shed? low maintenance strips out chemicals and the waste water is very clean, cost wise is not the most expensive be safe from essex

[@BasecampSouthDowns]

Any chance that you could record the volume up a tad…. I struggle to hear quite a bit of the videos whilst hiding in the barn from the good lady wife 🙏

[@Agri-Farm-UK]

The ctf talk Sunday don’t forget to big up Brad Parkinson he created gps and was CEO of Trimble, my wife doesn’t understand why I think he’s the greatest person she knows 😂

[@martinreams]

James, yet another good video, does your training group run the mental health awareness course ? We run it here in Lincolnshire, when I was chairman of the group I went on it to show my support for the course, but actually I came back from it and learn a lot from it, and I have had people come and now talk to me, and given them advice on what to do, and it has worked, they have then come back and thanked me, we all joke about things, but the days of saying “man up” are gone, you can usually see who wants help, approach them, ask them, are they ok ? ‘it’s good to talk” ! All the best.

[@NGK911]

Hello there on a different subject could you tell me if what you are actually planting this year ? And if your on the SFI putting it back to nature with bird sead on the 3 year programme ? Thanks.

[@WiDandie]

Regarding the dryermaster system, have you fitted the dryermaster moisture meters or have they managed to integrate them with the microwave moisture meters that were mentioned in a previous video thag were part of the Z-tech control system? I currently run another brand of control similar to the dryermaster but the moisture meter is unreliable.

[@andrewfram-taylor9390]

You should let cousin Michael know about the water company threatening to cut off body parts it might help him win the diet competition 😂😂

[@aficio698]

Not from a farming background however I find your videos very interesting. Did not appreciate the complexities of what you do. Please keep the videos coming and James you come across as a good employer. 🤩

[@NH_farmerherny]

Hi James great informative content very educational to my two young boys in particular who absolutely love farming and the kit etc.. I’m looking for your input as regards to the 942 drawbar, I have a new to us this year swapping out a 943MT for the 942 noticing that you guys have changed the 38mm drawbar to the 50mm like what the 943 has. Wondering have you any pictures of the one that you’ve had made please and cost approximately? Thanks look forward to hearing the latest on going farming videos 😊

[@PX_Farms]

Terry Birch at TWB and Chandlers can organise for you

[@johnhyde8892]

Hi James would a borehole be cheaper for you, and cheaper.

[@SpudSlingsby]

Russ/Barry fitted a Dryermaster to our 30yr old Kentra dryer in 2022 because drying for others as well as our own, we tended to be over drying. It doesn't take that many tons at 1% too dry to lose a wagon load even at our small scale. Good system once you understand how it works.

[@SpudSlingsby]

Have your fans got invertors fitted? Makes a huge difference to usability and running costs particularly when you're drying light stuff like Mustard OSR and oats to heavier stuff like wheat and beans

[@farmernige]

I assume Firestone are the same owner as Bridgestone? I had the same problem kn jcb handler tyres 2 out of 4. Same thing I was the only case never seen it before. Had warranty payout but only because my tyre dealer pushed so hard. Never had a tyre from them since. Prefer Michelin although dear last and grip much better.

[@alistairnelson3216]

Don’t give an inch on that tyre. They will wriggle and squirm and come up with every excuse under the sun but don’t let them off the hook. They’ve never seen that before etc etc but sadly Bridgestones are prone to it on a xerion 5000 and Claas 950 near here a couple of years ago

[@michaelshakeshaft9815]

Hi James another good update of what is going on l think some people think come December and farmers pack the bags and go on holiday for two months . Interesting about your cleats on your tyres the JD RX l drive the cleats are coming off and friend as the same problem with his RX , JD say they have not heard of any problems same old bullshit from the manufacture.😃😃

[@roblonsdale8927]

Have you had any "unique" problems with jd isobus? Asking for a friend....

[@mblandservices]

firestone Bridgestone terrible tyers to soft wear out quick

[@JWBFarming]

I might have missed this, but why the pre cast concrete walls in the shed of dreams if its not a grainstore? Also, i've got a claim in against Anglian Water where they left a burst water main pumping for 10 days and ruined the corner of a sugar beet field, getting nowhere.

[@GRS1903]

Mm funny it’s running on your concrete, how come the other tyres are ok? Must run on one wheel😂

[@guidekiller]

With JD StarFire7000 you don’t need a base station

[@chrisreynard4119]

You want to speak to Steve lamb from Bridgestone! That man would sort something out

[@Jonno180556ADI]

Don’t drive on concrete? What are you supposed to do? Four blokes, one on each corner, and carry it across the yard to a field??😂

[@ollywareing9419]

New coat due to weight loss or weight gain James ? 😅 Another spot on video thanks

[@PX_Farms]

Weight gain 😱

[@ollywareing9419]

😂😂😂

[@stakman78]

Please Tom follow what your boss is explaining about. We literaly hardly see what James is talking about because you act like a tripod.. like show us the bloody screen they are talking about! So frustrating, still watch all and every video. Thanks.

[@mungogerryjnr]

Nah,running on concrete? Are they serious 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ Maybe pay them next time with Monopoly money and explain it’s still paper! I had a set of 850/55x42 Telliborg(spelt wrong) which are now Verdastein(also spelt wrong) They are the original low inflation manufacturer and in my experience the original of anything knows more and for longer,the rest are following But the best value for money was Pirelli(spelt right😂) No doubt about it,especially tyres that don’t get 100% use and sit a lot. Never run ag tyres backwards,they will anti torque and rip apart,they aren’t designed to go backwards

[@colinwaters2725]

Are your tyres made of Blubber "spelt wrong " 😂just joking. Great info mate 😊

[@mungogerryjnr]

Whoa whoa whoaaa Did you say,in due respect You had a John Deere GPS on a Nuffield James,are you been seriously or pulling my kangaroos tail
