8:57 “It’s not the plough it’s the how….” was something I heard a few weeks ago 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@garymadden2656]

Great video Crawford Plough all the way 💪👌

[@malcsco]

At least you going to leave your boots at the back door!, does that mean you’re not putting them in the sink to clean. Another great video Crawford. Bandit beer label 👍. ATB fur noo

[@habslover2306]

Maybe Gate Lady watched that video and told him to go sleep in the hen shed. 😶

[@rufusbennion]

ploughing is better than no till and global warming doesn't is rubbish, I love the videos

[@earlepriest2544]

I worked for a farmer in the 1980’s and even back then he reckoned that the seasons were changing and moving round as he said Mother Nature works in cycles. Plough all the way.

[@spencerdavies5926]

Hi Crawford hope you are OK. Please can you say happy 47th to my father shaun Davies (your biggest fan) for tomorrow. He is a full time Paramedic who is gets home every night and we have to rewhatch your video 🤣 . Thank you in advance this would make his day! 👍

[@JonParkes-bi2jt]

Cow manure has a wonderful smell, as you say I am sure that we are in a weather cycle, a 1000 years ago there was apparently more CO2 around than we have now!! Good videos.

[@roberthiggins6401]

They live with 2000ppm on the space station. I know it's not for years on end and it's higher in buildings yet we have to live and many work in buildings too. One has to compromise unless one wants to be cold and hungry. Just what I've seen on here from the other opinion side that's not allowed on the box.

[@breadman2983]

1000 years ago no, 10,000 years yes, due to volcanic activity.

[@willyfindlay4398]

Even Cole the Cornstar has bought a plow/ plough as he wants to plough for the first time in 20 plus years.😊 Great to see thedugs.😊

[@kenfallows1028]

Great vid fella, and proper tunes! Dag makes me smile too!😂

[@williambibbey5630]

Yes for the plough 100%. We plough and combi drill all our corn. Ploughing the potato ground is a must to get the depth. Keep up the videos Crawford, cracking job 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@georgearmstrong9106]

things have warmed up since the ice age .You farm about 1200 acre have 3 about 200 hp tractors and plough, the farms that direct drill similar acres have far bigger hp tractors and probably have more weed problems ,plough burrys stuff

[@salmonhunter7414]

We rented the patch of ground that the power line was on. Made pretty good money from that..

[@habslover2306]

So Crawford, who's the brown dug? Name? Makes a cameo appearance and no special mention. "Also featuring...." Missed seeing your three bandit 🐑🐑🐑

[@henryjohnsen77]

We used a n old rotavator for our 60 acres of ground going back into grass from wheat, there were some massive ruts, but smothed them out with a digger, n the rotavator did some aswell n a good job done too. Thus was early on so much drier but one pass of rotavator then a combination drill was all it took.

[@mrnobby74]

The plough will always be needed especially in England and I believe that this planet will never stop changing despite what we do it will always evolve like it has done for millennia

[@danielcarswell-tr2vs]

This is Scotland.

[@philipmelling]

Hope you're not too badly affected by the horrendous storm yesterday and today. Looks really bad. I visited your shop whilst on my holidays and really enjoyed my breakfast and my Mum loves your gingerbread! We're going to have to order more soon :)

Can't wait for the beer to be done I'll be ordering some just in time for crimbo. Great name for it.

[@user-ps3vo3nt5h]

Plough all the way in Scotland, especially here I’m Ayrshire!! And also in a mixed farming situation where there’s allot of organic matter to bury. Lovely soil you’ve got there and nice ploughing!👌

[@dfgaJK]

I like the beer label design!

[@steviemcintyre6364]

Always love the videos and your presentation, agree 100% on matters of plough, climate change and cows!

[@billy140572]

Hopefully this storm isn’t affecting your area as much as it is around us ( Montrose/Brechin area ) great vid as normal and I’m not convinced that no tillage is the future here in Scotland but I am noticing more and more farmers trying it.

[@benlawson7525]

Glad you have the soil for a plough we don't more rock than soil so mintill or direct the only way for us. Even the plough combi drills are struggling in our area of SW Scotland

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Can understand that 👍🏼 hope youve managed to get it all in

[@jameswardle7977]

I’m up past your place this weekend at a do in Inverness trying to avoid the flooding. We’re going to call into the farm shop on Sunday. Get myself a new hat and lunch 🤞🏻

👍🏼 agreed

[@keithroberthalliday9572]

Hi Crawford I love ploughing .a lot of the time you are quicker ploughing and sowing with combination drill and if it does rain you just stop go back to it when it dries up

[@jamesgriffiths7579]

in order to bury the electrical cables that run on the pylons the insulation on them would have to be extremely thick. that is why they're not buried is my understanding.

[@sheeplad2578]

I 100% agree with you on plowing and climate change you won’t beat a plow and I am from England

[@michaelgrant8727]

Plough 100% here in Donegal northwest of Ireland 🇮🇪. It’s the same as yourself weather window and heavy soil just not dry enough for mintill or notill Hard to beat the one pass 😊

if you can combine then go straight back in with a no till drill just think of the saving in diesal

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Yes true, but weed management, increased chemical bill, lack of options in poor conditions etc etc. i think a combination of methods is required 👍🏼

[@allisterwilliams7226]

[@totomesch1940]

Been wondering how you're faring up there on the eastern side...... Hope the water's no caused too much damage to the fields and you've no been pummelled by Babet. You're right about the weather cycles, what they won't tell you on the news is that for the last few hundreds of years we've been in a very quiet (climate) period. The Sun is the main driver of our weather systems, and the Sun, along with every other celestial object, is going through cycle of heating. ATB

Re the Plough, if you have a few moments/hours, check out Gabe Brown or Jon Stevens Maple Grove Farms, minimum tillage as we know it here needs to embrace cover crops.

[@warrenveale2462]

[@darraghhegarty9443]

any new merch coming out for christmas??

[@paulthompson8467]

Our land here in Ni would be a bit heavy and wet so ploughing is needed the weather is definitely different to when I was a child but I think the farmer is an easy target to place the blame for global warming could be we are just in a weather cycle 🤔

[@stevengrieve678]

Cue the "my tillage programme's better than yours " comments 😂😂 Ps canny beat a bit o the outfield 😊

[@smallsuffolkfarmer]

Plough is still king. Use less glyphosate and gives more reliable results. We have used direct drilling here but on our heavy clay land it doesnt work every time.

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

👌🏽All for using it within a system but not abandoning the plough

[@smallsuffolkfarmer]

@@CrawfordsFarm1 no one system works on it's own you need a variety and just try and pick the right option at the time.

Yes to the plough, no to global warming - it's a scam, same with the cows - can never have too many cows. And the beer label looks good. Was in the cafe/shop the other week and the soup was great. Didn't see gate lady though, very disappointed 😂

[@roberthiggins6401]

Bollocks Crawford the lot of it! Climate changes and always has done. Plants, trees, etc need co2 to grow. That's the least of our worries I fear.

[@kenfallows1028]

Cows are great, politicians creating co2 , plough where needed and min tilth if you can get away with it!

[@Iuhxz]

Plough is the devils work😂 soil killer… just watch your best soil all wash away in your his horrific weather😬😬

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Its all held together by the crops that we have managed to sow with the combi drill 🥰 i think all methods have their place tho

[@SuperGardenshed]

On your questions, one size doesn't fit all: cows 1. S American beef from cows fed on soy beans grown in fields created by deforestation, feed-lot fattened, boosted by growth hormones, transported across the Atlantic in refrigerated containers vs 2. locally reared, minimal intervention, locally slaughtered and butchered 2 Beats 1 every day of the week plough vs zero till depends on soil, local weather and crop. add in diesel / tractor hours, fertiliser & spraying and yield .... no simple answers so an open mind and informed discussion needed. unfortunately, that's a step too far for most politicians and activists. We need food at a reasonable price and we need food security global warming: the times they are a changing. There must be a human impact due to population growth and the knock on effect of that and the related consumption of resources (& related waste/emissions) needed to support it, so its head in the sand to think there isn't a global change in climate. What to do about it? much more complex than the plough v zero-till debate so... drink a few Bandit Beers and discuss

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

I agree to all of this 👍🏼 especially the last bit 🍺

[@SuperGardenshed]

@@CrawfordsFarm1 willing to be a test-crash dummy when the beer arrives (local farm shop regular & can collect in my defender)

[@IfanRoberts]

Although everyone is entitled to their opinion, it does appear that scientific evidence strongly suggests that current levels of global warming are 95% due to human activity. That’s not to say that natural global warming isn’t real, but human activity increases this rate dramatically and I think we can all agree that extreme weather events are more common than ever. Strongly suggest looking up reliable sources of information on the subject.

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

I agree to an extent, what i think i should have said was i dont believe it is solely our fault and also i think the methods/decisions being made around it all very questionable 👍🏼 also i know almost nothing about almost everything 😁 just throwing opinions out there

[@IfanRoberts]

@@CrawfordsFarm1 I certainly think farmers get way too much pressure from this though. Other industries such as oil and gas continue to get immense governmental support (look at big oil profits and lack of tax) and farmers are yet expected to increase their costs to reduce minimal emissions with technology that’s overly expensive and some (electric tractors for instance) that hardly exists at all. I’m just a keyboard warrior at this stage. Sorry.

[@breadman2983]

10:00 you're referring to the milankovitch cycles roughly every 60,000 years the earth tilts back and forth on its axis. This cools and heats the earth, it causes ice ages. Right now, the earth is meant to be cooling down, all be it, very gradually. Its not, its heating up, quite drastically. And its entirely humanities fault. Because whilst yes, 10,000 years ago, there was drastic volcanic activity that heated the earth, there isnt any now. By all natural means, we should be cooling down, we're not. However should this matter whatsoever to the farmer? God no, if people cant eat, humanities doomed, and farmings already ridiculously expensive. Its not the farmer who's heating the planet up, and if it was, it would be a necessary sacrifice. Its the fact we burn massive amounts of oil and coal for basically all our energy.

[@gussnarp]

You're a good man, but you're way off base on the climate. Liked the video anyway!

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Possibly 🤔 open to opinions

[@tjragon]

Trust the experts. Just like how you and your family should be trusted when it comes to farming, you should trust the people whose job it is to research the climate when it comes to global warming. It takes a lot of education, training and expertise to become a competent scientist and the extreme vast majority agree that there's a global warming crisis. Also, the whole point of science is to come up with a theory, see if you're right or wrong and then publish your findings, so all the data is out there if you have the time/willingness/smarts to read it. And thirdly, I can't think of an ulterior motive for why a bunch of people would have a vested interest in tricking everyone into believing in climate change, seems like there'd be much easier, faster and less convoluted ways of getting ahead in life than faking climate change if you're willing to be dishonest. Keep up the good job with the videos 👍@@CrawfordsFarm1

[@DannyRice01]

I like the plow but global warming is unquestionable. If you look up the CO2 record from Hawaii the global temperature is rising at the same speed as the amount of carbon dioxide. The graph is called the Keeling Curve. However, Concrete production emits more CO2 (8% globally) than Aviation does so that's a fun fact for you! As for cows- grass fed, local beef supporting the economy is definitely sustainable, but importing cheap, steroid full, corn fed beef from the global market is DEFINITELY not 😂

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

👍🏼 keeling curve will have a look cheers

[@TheStreamfish]

I am very disappointed on your question about climate change. There is absolutely no open question whether its man-made or natural. Scientist worldwide solved and agreed about that years ago. You are setting us back to the starting line. But hey, maybe your youtube subs are much wiser and have done their own research.

He is 100% correct in what he says though, just look at the covid period when there was no planes in the air and how clear the skies where.

[@regenesteffen2814]

Scientists agree is about the most unscientific announcement ever. Kinda flys in the face of what science is all about.

[@ThingyGoos]

It's partly both though. Yes, humans do play a part, but we are in a natural warming period anyway. Either way, agricultural emissions are vastly outweighed by corporation emissions such as Amazon, or transport emissions from planes
