More Ploughing and drilling Winter Wheat 04 01 20

[@paddyboy557]

Very good video Farmer P that Duo make a good team cant beat the small drill when conditions are poor. You will have to keep us updated through the year on the crops.

[@FarmerP]

Paddy Boy I will be doing a fairly regular fly over to keep an eye on it all, spotting any yellowing or thin bits 🙂

[@bobbrooks266]

Nice video again. Looks like the drilling isn't going to bad which is good to see. Regards to you all

[@FarmerP]

Farming In kent.uk. Thank you, I agree, if it was that easy some of the urban keyboard warriors would probably make reasonable farmers. The real world doesn’t play fair meaning we regularly have to make the best of a poor job. I hope the Kent weather is kind to you. 🚜🌾👍

No it’s just as wet only thing growing here are the puddles might sow some rice 👍🏻

Epic drone work mate, Lovely looking drill. The ground might be wet but on a bright note i dont see many stones left for you to pick 😊👍🏻 hope to see Abbi on next vid 😆 keep up the great work mate.

[@upthereds4939]

Farmer P wish i was going 🙂🤪👍🏻

[@lewisgardner1660]

I have just found your channel, rather amusing I must say, to start with I thought jethro was going to pot up from behind a bush looking for denzel. It is really nice seeing youngsters getting involved in farming, maybe if other farmers took your approach more young uns would get into it. How many acres do you have on your farm, my wife comes from a small 176 acre farm in Essex. I think they still use an old massy 135 on the fields lol.

[@FarmerP]

Lewis Gardener Haha, thanks Lewis, I think you need to go a bit further South for true Jethro country. I enjoy a bit of fun, particularly with my girls as you will find if you go back a bit. I only have 57 acres of my own, dads place is five times bigger than me, although I graze about twenty acres of that too.

[@bobpaterson1845]

Really good video Ian can u do a drone video showing us roughly where t,'other farm is and it's boundaries 🤔👍

[@FarmerP]

Bob Paterson That would be a bit of a struggle Bob, I have the drone set up to not go further than 500 meters which is further than I can really see the it properly, especially if it drops below the skyline. I set it like that so I can wander about with the control a bit, It’s a legal requirement to keep the little bugger in sight. I would not be able to cover it all even if I stood in the middle.

[@bobpaterson1845]

No problem Ian didn't realise there were restrictions involved, yeh I knew u weren't allowed near an airfield etc etc 👍

[@FarmerP]

Bob Paterson Quite a lot of very reasonable restrictions I think.

[@barrypower6822]

thanks for the video today farmer p . had a rough day here today woke to news this morning that my school friend trawler when down off hookhead sat night and the the chap is still missing . heart broken here .

[@FarmerP]

Barry Power Sorry to hear that Barry, I hope he is found. 🤞🏻

[@williamgreenway8958]

Looks like the tractor pulling the Moldboard plow was doing pretty good for the condition of the ground (looked wet )

[@FarmerP]

William Greenway Very wet on top William, there was still quite a bit of old slurry from the last tenant standing on top of the ground that didn’t help much.

[@DanielDavis1973]

I know this is an older video but as an american I have a pretty simple question.. are the field boundaries (i.e. hedgerows and such) largely static or to they change with time? It feels like you're probably working around field boundaries that are hundreds of years old (if not a thousand) but I don't really have much knowledge in terms of things. The reason I ask is because I know a lot of the fields in the US, Canada, and Australia are enormous compared to yours but they also post date much of the modern technology that allows for large scale farming such as steam and later diesel tractors and all of the modern implements.

[@FarmerP]

Hi Daniel, field boundaries rarely alter, you need planning permission to remove hedgerows and yes our boundaries date back to the pony and cart days when tillage was one horse power😄

[@diggmore1362]

It’s a longtime ago now but my father had a fordson dexta to do all the farm work including the ploughing with a two furrow ferguson plough very slow progress compared with the speed at which the Newhollands are working

anthony duvall As are most of the arable land around us, we are probably going to loose some of the crop to flooding but at least we got it in the ground. I’m going to fly over it again tomorrow to see if we have any green 🤞🏻

[@georgerennie8106]

That plough needs a bit of setting up it's not matching. It's a bit rough even if it is wet conditions. My boss would have given me a good kicking for making a mess like that.

[@FarmerP]

George Rennie Sadly ploughing is a bit outside my area of expertise George, I would not know how to set up a plough unless someone took the time to teach me. I was very grateful to the guys for getting the job done though, they were tight on time before the next load of wet weather came in... Literally a few hours after they finished.

[@markkilleen8036]

What was the piece of ground he was drilling around ? Love the drone shots

[@dhamma58]

Without going back to look, I thought there were headstones. Though I expect FP to correct or corroborate....

[@kevinburdon8860]

How come you don’t farm it yourselves?

[@FarmerP]

Kevin Burdon We only got it back off the tenant in November last year, after very short notice, within two months we have 50% planted to wheat even with the excessive wet weather.... I thought we had done pretty well. We may have contractors doing the tractor work but it’s our crop. Unless you think we should have spent a fortune on machinary that would spend most of its time unemployed. My Dads in his 80th year, why would he want to ? I will take it on when it’s my time, but until then the old man is the boss.

[@kevinburdon8860]

That makes sense it will be a huge outlay fit kit. I’m only asking because I thought you did not do arable just livestock

[@FarmerP]

Kevin Burdon Livestock is my bag, it’s what I know best, but having ground suitable for arable all of a sudden means I need to re learn my crop husbandry again.... A long time since I went to Hartpury collage 1981 to 1984, a lo5 has changed since then.

Kenneth Green Sorry about that Kenneth, I will never be able to please everyone as I am sure you know, I kind of have to add a sound track as the drone doesn’t record sound and fixing sound recording equipment to other folks machines when I only met them last week is not really an option.
