the Fastrac looks really nice with the front loader attachment

[@kieranmurphy6538]

You'd be busy keeping the tractor clean with that job.

[@hamishkay3010]

Hi there Olly long before I was born in 1997, all the way back in 1993 we had a company called Agridry come down for silage over at our farm and spread lime. I get told about it all the time and I wish I could have seen it happening myself. That company used Ford 40 series tractors, they're now based in Yorkshire using the same equipment.

[@PaulA-il7ms]

JCB looks well with the loader !

[@jix177]

Unusual to see a loader on a Fastrac. Nice combo.

[@PA-ek3ul]

Could have parked that spreader any further away 😂

[@eoinruddy9166]

Hi Ollie I love your videos and you make me happy and smile and laugh thx ollie

[@colmkennedy3109]

Great video Olly 👌🏻👍🏻

[@bobbender1216]

Nice video really enjoyed it

[@markhetherton5265]

Savage video (nice yoke)🚜

[@wetlock1]

another FAB video Olly loved the drone shot intro you live in a stunning part of the UK the scenery looks amazing would luv to visit Norfolk some day would be cool to meet you as well

[@antonyfarming]

Great video nice jcb with the loader

[@joanslack2307]

Fastrac and loader is brilliant with four wheel steer better than an ordinary loader tractor. However still limited to 25 mph on road with lime spreader.

[@landenbaker7075]

We can run 43 mph on roas

[@enolux]

Thanks, Olly.

[@adventurestothemax2660]

Great music Olly

[@jamesdrummond276]

Great video

[@Chunk-ld9rk]

Great video olly

[@benjaminbauer4883]

People in my area for large spreading jobs usually have a truck mounted spreader and then a wheel loader or telihander to load from the piles. Thanks for the video olly.

[@andrewspedding]

Good tunes to day on your vid. olly

[@5xgreentv33]

That’s my dram tractor right there😁😁

[@tomwoulfe1603]

There is a fella in my area and he spreads lime with a brendal spreader and a 7530 John Deere and loads with a job bobcat

[@rhettoroni3487]

The vid is 🔥🔥🔥

[@masseymanmcauley1926]

Hi olly great video

[@samuelbritton2568]

It will be so annoying having to hitch and unhitch that lime spreader🤦‍♂️

[@DannyRice01]

Keeps you fit

[@OllysFarmLtd]

Whatever it takes!

[@ignasanchezl]

Consider how annoying it would be needing another tractor, another operator and another vehicle to maintain for the same output.

[@bradleykirk3206]

@@ignasanchezl why would you need another operator we run 2 spreaders and a loader with two men load yourself with a loader and then get back in tractor

[@ignasanchezl]

@@bradleykirk3206 Then your operation is on a larger scale.

[@ianwoolley2413]

Nice vid

[@conornolan2492]

Wat editing site do you use to edit ur videos ??

[@seeker1432]

Over kill . But making the most of one machine. I do like the Fastrack. Can fill so many roles if need be and good all round weight dispersal.

[@GENERALWA5TE]

What does the line do for the land?

[@aministratorgeneral.9298]

I bet that event acroos the rd, was pleased with all that dust blowing thier way and across the highway,...never mind got to be done ...

[@sileppinga5901]

I saw him drive when i was on vacation first time i saw a fastrac

[@jayallenby2117]

Did you get that John deere 7810?

[@raidednation]

Do you still talk with Tim at T&G? Been looking to contact his company about his experience with this unit

[@teresab4679]

Hi olly what make are all of your cattle trailers well I know one of them is Johnston

[@bflorin-ioan7786]

Is jcb fastrac 4220?

[@jucanelul7806]

Imagine doing this without a cab

[@glenkoopman7347]

Seen my neighbor spread lime a while back with his Massey 265, looked find going into the wind just not the other way

[@gurnoorhundal6821]

Thanks olly for making us a good video s🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@robertdaly9036]

Limestone is burnt in the lime kiln within the sugar factory to be used in the sugar processing industry. This is a byproduct. Great video....

[@jacobpgood724]

A little windy to be spreading that lime no? Any of that end up in the field?

[@kylehegarty]

There's a jd nav on the top haha

[@andrewjohn7952]

Nice setup but surely there must be a more efficient way to do this. I would have a crane and grab bucket fitted then pull right up alongside the heap. No time spent back and forth

[@JEDI-MAQUINAS]

Ai rende o serviço em top

[@kylerock6061]

I see it every year

[@user-gm4pr3tn7g]

😊

[@GENERALWA5TE]

Also there is a lot of lime dust in the air isn't it worth having a water sprayer to bring that dust back onto the land?

[@stephenlee6157]

Contractor near me uses a john deere 7710 and a volvo loading shovel for his lime

[@danielmccallister7719]

We use a lorry and usea conveyer belt in to the spreser

[@majesticcity]

Whhheyyy Tuckwell’s

[@steb8335]

There seems to be a lot of the material going in the air and not on the field?

[@steb8335]

Cheers. :)

[@MrDenneyboy32]

What's the best way of getting a job in farming with no previous experience plus I don't think I could get an apprenticeship at 29, any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated 👍

[@CelynParry]

Get a job relief milking for a local farm, good milkers are always in demand.

[@flashymassey7253]

I use go use a bunnings muck spreader with discs on

[@danielmccallister7719]

Jonathan Brown same

[@joeclarkson3642]

The lime in the United States is usually mined

[@alexthornton1084]

Hey olly

[@rianlafford7310]

Did u get the 7810

[@freddyluffman5107]

When’s the canam coming 🤗🤗

[@bobbyschmitz6429]

[@comrade-uj5iy]

Surely theres a better bucket?

(Third) Nice vid Olly ☺️

Do you own the fastrac

[@ryanwhelton2978]

Are u sure that’s lime because in ireland it’s white and that looks like soil

[@diffusian4749]

Ryan Whelton lime comes in all different colours

[@Hunter_-vm9id]

hi olly how are you today (first)

[@aliv5578]

Can I see a John Deere starfire gps system on the roof?

[@stevenlatrouse9477]

why is your lime so dark and dusty colour, in Australia its white

[@darraghgilmore6723]

It just depends where it is sourced from, some can be grey, white, brown

[@mikeysky8917]

Good quality lime is light in colour. Major differences in lime quality when tested. I am surrounded by quarry’s and you would be surprised how each quarry lime differs when tested.

[@plummers9620]

Fastrac with a loaded really isn't good

[@darraghgilmore6723]

How is it not, the fastrac has self levelling suspension so it distributes the weight evenly

[@leussinkfarms]

@@darraghgilmore6723 I have tried it and like it, but they need to make it so you can take the front suspension off or stiffen it up way more, it is way to bouncy and soft, with a full load in the bucket on a turn feels like you are going to tip.

[@padraighalpin3863]

Why don't you use 2 tractors

[@sproozy12]

In farming simulator it’s white..

[@Buckstar1]

Is it just me or does it look like you’d have terrible vision with a FEL on s fastrac ?

[@jakebracher5873]

Half the day wasted loading a spreader 😂 chop chop son
