Here's why grass-fed organic beef & sheep is good news for global CO2

Insight into how we manage the 80acres of organic pasture land on Harry's Farm and why I believe this method of red meat production is sustainable and actually good for the planet.

I think Harry could get me interested in pretty much any topic. Loving Harry's Farm vids :-)

[@toffer99]

Any teachers looking? These videos should be shown to schoolkids throughout the country.

[@paulmarchant9231]

Actually the teachers could learn a thing or two....... Had loads of school visits over the years, and the comments from teachers have been a real eye opener..... Such as sugar beet..... " But we don't grow sugar in the UK, it's too cold"..... Then there were the potatoes.... " But won't the green ones ripen later?"..... Not much hope for the future

[@VanderlyndenJengold]

@@paulmarchant9231 Teachers are fine, plenty of children are taught about farming and visit farms. I know I did. It's people like Gove and co. who screw up education.

[@thefarmingforum5141]

Thanks Harry - we have added this to Farm TV on The Farming Forum.

[@patdwyer6274]

Fascinating Harry! Think I'm liking these farming videos even more than your car ones! (and that's saying something) Thanks for including us here in Ireland as sustainable beef producers. The eco-mentalists here jumped on that report as a reason to kick the beef farmers. But then they wouldn't like your car videos either 😊 Looking forward to learning more about farming (and cars)!

Grass fed all the way for me, I love my bbq's and have always used Grass fed meat! I have not been to a supermarket for so long that I can not remember the last time I bought meat from them! Yes the cost is more but you pay for what you get! Do not get me wrong! I'm no rich man, I believe in animal well being all the way and to save the environment is just important.

[@TheByard]

The dairy farm I worked on in the 60s kept the cows in sheds over the winter, fed them grains, silage and hay that was all grown on the farm. In the spring the cows went out to controlled graze a filed, the control was an electric fence advanced twice a day during milking. When the fence reach the top of the field then cows went into field two and so on. Field one then had winter bedding spread on it and chain harrowed, the grass growth and second cut, would then be cut as silage or hay for winter feeding. Brewers grains were also used for feeding.

[@Alanjamessouthey]

My uncle has a farm in Hampshire which is mostly SSSI Water meadows. He also gave some land to the local community to grow vegetables and fruit they have called it Highbridge community farm which is now on google.

[@dickieb2233]

Absolutely wonderful Mr Metcalfe. As your engine builder said, "you lead a charmed life". Cows are so intelligent , they have an enormous brain and we just stick them in a field to eat grass. Ask anyone who has spent time around them and they will confirm their character and propensity to learn through observation.

[@dickieb2233]

@alanrtment porter lucky for us that they do taste so good. Without demand there would be less of them. Let us enjoy England and its diverse countryside. As a wise man once said, "tread lightly on this earth"

[@benbarnes7720]

I too am a huge advocate of organic grass fed beef, we run a 50 head pedigree suckler herd comprised of beef short horns and Sussex cattle, like yours, on the Marlborough Downs escarpment. We couldn’t be happier with how they manage the pasture and also compliment the arable operation, by utilising unsuitable land. Please keep up the good work educating people on the world class job UK farmers do to produce high quality sustainable food

[@mirage4014]

Hi Harry nice to see a little patch of Rural England, Makes me feel a little homesick!

I totaly agree with you! It is getting more common to raise cattle this way in Sweden as well. I personaly allways buy my meat at a local farm that have a organic production with Anguscattle.

Very good video...Love what you doing here Harry. Was listening to Radio 1 in the combine ealier... Was absolutely shocked at the way the news was discussing "eating meat" to be a comparable sin to burning rainforests / private jets....Where is the NFU / someone to stand up against these arguments? No wonder the young population are getting side tracked....they think its more healthy, and better for the planet to knock down a rainforest half way across the world, grow a crop, ship it back across the world and eat it, than simply eat some local meat, reared in there own countryside, in a field that could be used for nothing other than this anyway.... Totally agree with your points / they need someone like you on the news!! Keep up the good work! (I am also a car guy on a farm with a YT channel!)

[@anceluda]

Harry, thank you for sharing. I urge you to research Allan Savory and Holistic Grazing. His approach takes pasture raising livestock to a higher level.... increasing carbon sequestration from the air, building healthier more nutrient rich soil, improving the water cycle by absorbing more rain and avoiding water run off. Also a good resource is Greg Judy at Green Pastures Farm. Thank you for caring and keep spreading the word!
