potato picking, beet lifting and seed drilling | farming for food

Some foggy days, some tidy days!
Still picking potatoes and the last field is insight! Whilst that’s going on we lifted a field of sugar beet (sorry, couldn’t film any this time around though theres lots more to harvest)
Fitting in around those jobs we are also seeding winter wheat with the Vaderstad Rapid. Paul is also seedbed cleaning with Glyphosate. After seeding applying pre emergence weed control.

Those colds sure need a dehumidifier 😜 what a sticky mess of potato 🥔 crop 😢 Looks like the trailer is taking half the field with it 😅 glorious sunrise/set 👌🏼so satisfying slurping 😋

Another great video of life on your farm!

[@Leverton-Brothers]

Thanks 👍

Will your replacement machine be double multisep or would you go for a dahlman multisep machine?

[@Leverton-Brothers]

I would say double multisep although I wouldn’t rule out RS as replacement multisep prices are crazy whilst RS rollers are pretty good value.

I’d be interested to see the evolution cleaner on the grader when lifting in them conditions if possible?

[@Leverton-Brothers]

@@jackward8062 I’ll see if I can get a clip. Ours is an ex harvester Grimme unit though so much less control than the Scott’s which now is in the higher league.

Very lucky with that rotavator part could have cut through web so easily. Those potatoes are going to cost a lot to dry out for long term storage

[@Leverton-Brothers]

Very true!

[@sueg1530]

Another really interesting video David. Those potatoes look amazing under all the mud! Do you store a large part of the harvest?

[@Leverton-Brothers]

Thankyou, yes store them all.
