MAULING IN BEANS

[@peterhaymaker7562]

Olly, Good to see the beans going in. Beans, unlike any other crop, have every will in the world to live so fingers crossed for you. I remember years ago coming down the road in the winter and seeing a 12 acre field of oats that were just coming through nicely black with Rooks. They wrote the crop off in an afternoon. I shall look forward to seeing the beans coming through in due course. P

What a blessing getting the quad track in time for a wet sowing season 👍

[@sethwegner7045]

It surprises me how narrow a lot of the planting equipment is over there

[@googies12a]

Got all my work done today after a horrendous week of rain. 90% today, tired but good!!

[@jamieelson5019]

Great video . Its srarting to dry up a bit. Happy birthday Martin . 50% today

[@georgefenner1935]

Great vid olly, you definitely need more lights and beacons on the quad track

[@adrianhutchin4925]

i have to say what an inestment and alot of worry for you, but you able to do work on ground that you possibly wouldnt beable to, and I am bein for eer hoepful that all the hard work you and the fellew farmers are doing to proide us with food is great and a ery special task, well done to you all and thank you, be safe from essex. Oh and a happy birhday Martin ;)

[@tommawle8896]

Well done for getting a bit of drilling done! Now you just need a ton of optimism because If it’s not too wet or too dry, crows or pigeons, government policy or poor prices, expensive costs or high interest rates, fly-tipping or kids on bikes, there’s plenty against us farmers. You’re doing a great job putting it all out there, whilst staying positive and keeping it entertaining. Good luck! Running at 90% Happy Easter 🐣 to you and the team 👍

[@ado239]

You have a great staff Ollie. Maybe a vid for chat with them. What they love and hate about agriculture, favourite tractors, that kinda thing. Also, more Ian jokes

[@TWJW]

I did the same thing to my tractor steps but with checker plating to stop my dog breaking it leg back in the early 00’s worked really well and she was able to get in and out herself

[@SmithyScotland]

You need to let a bit of air out the quadtrac tyres to reduce the slippage 😊

[@benpattinson1]

Thought you’d made a new tool there Olly. A ratchet mikegrips 👌

[@KevinCowe-uk5us]

Hi Olly you have a great set of lads working for you..The quad track came along just at the right time so that you can get some crops in the ground...you need to get the lads who shoot the pigeons to go on the field that the crow's are hitting and that will help with keeping them off the crop.....😀😀😀40%

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Superb blog Olly, good to see the Quadtrack earning its keep! 😊

[@james1c763]

[@DJC995]

Hi Olly Nice one Thanks again

[@Paws4thot]

Thought about the Quadtrak's mirrors - You can get ABS (plastic) mirror guards for tipper trucks, and the Q's mirrors look to be a similar size. so maybe worth investigating? Buggy at 5x speed sounds like an angry wasp with my speakers. 😀 And thanks again to everyone who's supported the Air Ambulance. 95% today; not out and Scotland lost to France in the Women's 6 Nations (but it was a good game. No idea who Ingurlandshire were playing or if they were on tv.)

[@zacschwier]

Thanks for the birthday shootout olly

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

Happy birthday

[@richardcanning7351]

Good to see you got a bit of field work done today. Fingers crossed for a couple more dry days for you. 60%

[@timgalley4391]

That's going to make a cracking photo for next years calendar

[@alanroygbiv]

Sounds like a motorcycle when speed up😂

[@TheGrimReaper1]

I still recall being sent to buy a replacement steel tine for the Ransomes tool bar rigid cultivator from the dealership in about 1965 for sixteen pounds, I nearly fell over backwards when the store man told me what it cost. I have just looked on my inflation calculator on my ipad and its 365 pounds now. , i would say to be fair about twice as much forged steel involved but i always felt ripped off, but what can you do. Those tracks on the tractor are a wonderful idea, the Psi must be less than a foot print.

[@gerryoconnor8751]

Happy birthday Martin 😅

[@johnpayne3953]

Wouldn’t it an idea to mount extra beacons on the front “bumper” by the marker boards or just the OS because oncoming traffic may not notice roof mounted ones!

[@b14clg]

Manhole cover, did you have to recalibrate drill for more seed in field that was not cultivated? Watch out dad! Hopefully you get a great harvest off that field, 89% , happy Easter Ollie & team/family

[@peterclarke3300]

Great video Olly that looks like a old fashion drain from about a million years ago and strange 👏👏👍👍

[@johnhyde8892]

Hi Olly, it must make you wonder if there will be a harvester the way the weather is going. Lots of heavy rain for the best part of the day here in Cornwall. 65 % Today.

[@adamwatson6384]

There's never, not been a harvest.

[@peterwilson-qj2ds]

Good video Olly , I have never known a wet time like this . Lets hope there will soon be some decent weather, as the time is slipping away for getting the spring drilling done. 70% Today .

[@martinmackay9461]

That looks the part going down the road. Fair shows just how big it is compared to in the yard and field 🤌💪

[@matthewpayne42]

First, happy easter 🐰 to you and your family.

[@claetuswoodroofe1854]

We have beans to plant we won’t go till it’s dry or leave them in the shed till next year

[@markyoull6744]

great video good to see you in field

[@ianleak]

Happy Easter to you and your family, been talking to a local farmer in Lincolnshire, if no more dry and warm days to ger rid of the water laying on the wet land, if by the 12th April will leve it fallow I am 36% today

[@EddieRedX5]

First of all Olly happy Easter to you and your family It must be disheartening having to work in conditions like this but is it ever going to get any better Olly you might be better putting rice in conditions are perfect for that I think you’ve got to be very optimistic on how this year is going to pan out so you’ve just to crash on hoping it come right feeling 93% today and Olly don’t despair it’ll come right also another great video again

[@andrewbrown9086]

Evening good vlog will it take long to grow rice as in paddy fields 😮😮

[@davidfisher5507]

We turned land over yesterday in east Yorkshire. Waiting for it to dry before we can do anymore. Already moved our seed beans onto another farm as we had no way of getting them drilled in time. Awful year.

[@ryansegui7167]

You should put some strobes on them marker board on the quad

[@ianparker3486]

Great video as always Olly

[@robbrine1788]

Desperation!! 47 years in the job. Worst spring ever! Had to give up with the Horsch Sprinter this evening. Blocked it solid!!

Hi olly having a crap year in the garden as well slugs or eating the beans peas have rotted in the ground and mice eating seedlings in my greenhouse 😢

[@63melvyn]

I do feel your pain, do you or don’t you , drill the seed, I really didn’t realise the stress farmers go though and the potential waste of money.

[@daniellawrie9358]

Hi there could we have a hole video off you and dad talking about old times and new times please??
