Farmer's POV (Point of View) is a channel where I share videos of different chores that are going on on our small family farm in Slovenia. We have 60 heads of cattle, mainly simmetal breed and we milk about 35 of them. We farm in a fairly hilly area so our equipment is relatively small. Currently we own 4 tractors: Fiat DT55-56, New Holland TN70DA, Deutz Fahr Agroplus 85 and John Deere 5085M. We work around 20 hectares of mainly grass fields and about 2,5 hectares for silage corn. We also have 7 hectares of forest.

This is a fantastic Channel, thank you for posting your videos. I remember making lots of hay years ago, the heat at the top of the barn made you wet through with sweat. But lots of fun with neighbours and friends helping out. Moved to round bale silage and somehow all the fun disappeared and the friendly fun was replaced by music in the tractor cab. A lot more lonely these days.

Thank you very much! 🙂 aah yeah, I know what you mean... 🙃

So it begins... Great battle of our summer! 🤠🍻 SRETNO susjedi! 🇸🇮🇭🇷

[@herbhouston5378]

I'm just a few months shy of 80 years old and I remember baling a lot of hay small squares. I remember a lot of days and hot mows with very little air circulation. Dust and being up next to a tin roof In the heat of the summer. Burning up remember loading ales on wagons and unloading onto an elevator. I remember all the heat and the dust and the sweat. I think your system is fantastic! You process it in a manner that is good for you and your cows. By the way. I think your replacement heifers look fine and healthy.

[@farmerspov4709]

Must've been hard work but I'm sure you have some fond memories of it 😊 Thank you! 🙂

[@herbhouston5378]

That I do, and thank you.

"So Awesome to see Farmer's POV subs going up more", and it should this is a high quality channel to watch!!👏😁 You know the work never stops and when the energy levels drop its time to get some shut eye, and I do the same thing, there are times I use those granola energy bars and they help, people can burn a lot of energy!! Damn I am enjoying that thick hay!! When I watch your channel it always makes me think back 100-200 yrs ago and I think how did the farmers perform the same jobs that modern machinery perform now! The physical strength/stamina these farmers had is mind blowing💪💥 Even the daily farm life your grandpa/grandma went through it's all very interesting to me! Thank You for another peaceful GRAND VIDEO🙏

[@farmerspov4709]

Yeah its nice to see 🙂 you know, I'm also wondering the same thing, they were really tough back in the day 😀 Thanks for watching and commenting! 🙂👍

Brilliant your on hay already if you got the weather and grass go for it 👍

[@mtozzy11]

A nice heavy crop. You've had a very successful first cut.

[@farmerspov4709]

Yes, very 🙂

[@williammerry4746]

Another beautiful video! Mr Farmer's POV you could make a fortune just doing videos. You are so good and I know that it takes a lot of extra time. Your beautiful land, beautiful crop of hay, efficient methods are outstanding. I am waiting and hoping to hear that you and your wife are planning a trip to our area this fall.. You won't be disappointed.

[@farmerspov4709]

Thank you very much! 😊 yeah I don't think that's happening this year... 🤔

[@InGodWeTrust816]

Awesome video again! Yeah, here finally the hay season also has begun already after month of rain🙄 ! I always remember the haymaking season. We had the hay blower IN the barn, so it was a very dusty job, but nevertheless we had always fun😳 😁 ! Wish you a bountiful hay harvest. Greetings from Bavaria.

What’s the weather forecast for you ,2 more dry weeks for us in the UK maybe ?getting a bit like last year but then it can change 🤞I always say ‘ It’s a pity dry weather ever makes livestock farming a challenge ! Going to be a good TT though👍

[@farmerspov4709]

Sunny with afternoon rain storms so not really a good haying weather for about a week 🤔 oh, hopefully you get some rain soon, last year was a pity 😐 haha yeah! 😁👍

Pozdrav za vrijednog farmera iz Hrvatske. Zanima me kako si zadovoljan s john deer-om, da li imaš prolblema s dpf-om i kako često radi regeneraciju. Kolko troši na sat kad recimo kosiš.

[@farmerspov4709]

Lijepi pozdrav. Sa traktorom sam dosta zadovoljan, prve godine je bilo problema, ali su sanirani pod garancijom. Prošle sam godine mogao očistiti DPF na servisu, regeneracije nisu česte, ali ponekad proradi kad si skoraj gotov sa poslom... Potrosnju jos nisam mjerio...

[@farmerspov4709]

Je v redu ampak Kirchner, ki smo jo uporabljali prej ima lažje priklapljanje cevi zadaj (ni treba biti tako natančno postavljen) in kazalnik napolnjenosti je kar fajn zadeva 🤔 Kaj pa vem, kakšnih 6 - 8 metrov, odvisno od gostote gnojevke 🤔 ja, rad bi sprobal dvovretenski zgrabljalnik ampak na nekaterih parcelah bi bil neroden... 🙃 Hvala 🙂 👍

Amazing video again!!!👌👌 How many hectares you have on the farm(total)??

Thanks! 🙂 22.

[@kennylaureys6396]

how much dry matter should the hay have to be able to store it in the attic? Greetings from Belgium

[@farmerspov4709]

I'd say at least 80 %, but we further dry it with cold air drying machine under the roof 😉

[@JussiValkila]

We'll be making only hay to sell this year because we aren't going keep heifers over the winter anymore.

[@farmerspov4709]

So you're selling them all in the fall? 🤔

[@JussiValkila]

@@farmerspov4709 we keep them for a neighboring dairy. They'll be there or at another heifer farm in the winter then. In the summer we'll probably have some dry cows grazing on our pastures.
