Cereals 2024 Day 2

[@roberthoward3723]

Thanks for covering an aspect of farming concerning plant cropping varieties, diseases soil types etc for those that are uneducated on the arable side. Your grasp of the subject and clarity of imparting that knowledge is very helpful and enlightening - thank you.

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Pleasure Robert.

[@ronansfarm2679]

Funny women I can see Olly trying to hold his laugh I always laugh in the worst situations so I would burst out laughing here😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

😂😂😂 it was a good laugh to start the day!

[@alistairnelson3216]

Sadly sums up the state of the nation.

[@MichaelCollins-tt8wv]

Congratulations on being announced as host farm for Cereals 2025 Wardy!

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

😊👍

[@Mtraves8769]

We have Omnia and have been using it for a 18 months now, I get on really well with it. It’s far easier to use then gatekeeper. I use it for everything now creating seed plans, creating nutrient plans and now spray plans. And the beauty of it is that it’s so easy to create reports and upload them straight in to the red tractor portal. Saved me hours this year on our audit.

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Very useful info, thank you,

[@Mtraves8769]

@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard it’s very good and all the staff at Hutchinsons have been really helpful if I’ve ever needed it too

[@alistairnelson3216]

Used Omnia for abit and it’s about the best software package out there and it’s improving all the time and getting better. And as mentioned lots of good people to help when your struggling

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Thanks for that.

[@robdavis5711]

Ha! She wasn’t going to let him in!!! Great update, love the insight into the IT systems, it’s amazing how data driven the industry can now be!

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Incredible isn’t it.

[@trevorsidley7697]

Great explanations about how things work, Andrew. Thank you. Best I don't comment on the Parking Attendant.

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

😂😂😂🤐🤦‍♂️

[@GrahamWP58]

You cant park there!! Good content Andrew see you Sunday

[@philipedwards8492]

Thanks Andrew for taking the time to show us around the cereals event, the amount of information We have at Our fingertips these days is amazing, We live in very exciting times in some ways , it’s not all fun and games in farming of course but we need to grasp opportunities when they come along.

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Definitely, the tech is amazing.

[@dtvking]

Very detailed explanation of the machinery. Really enjoyed it Many thanks

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

[@JamesBond-wb1po]

[@alexthomson719]

Andrew that was very interesting especially K W S stand , your very good at explaining things thanks again 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

😊👍

[@alancurtis80]

You are so good at explaining everything Andrew. I would love to walk around these shows with you. I have never been a farmer but am definitely a country person here in south Lincs., surrounded by arable land. Love to see anything agricultural.

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Cheers, even I struggle sometimes to fathom things out without an explanation.

[@hedleyjackson5131]

good to know it's not just me struggling to link ops centre and gatekeeper, great tour round

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Despite what gatekeeper say, it’s horrendous.

[@georgehay5929]

Good evening, Andrew. Great video again. If only you could have a blank cheque at one of them, it shows the size and amount of machinery on show is awesome and the john deere stand was good, especially that combine.

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Hello George, price of kit now is staggering.

[@pietscholtanus]

In holland we fill the drain holes with shells,better then stones and much lighter in weight

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

That’s interesting, you’d need a huge amount but can see it would work.

[@ronaldlucas5360]

Enjoyed the video.

[@user-kd3mh6gv1u]

oh dear...."ya cant park there" lol ...but it was good entertainment lol.

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

😂😂😂

[@Gearoid35]

Another great video thank you

[@jhlane1977]

Great that you came and saw Omnia - and you had Lewis show you what it can do. We are very chuffed with it and it’s going to get even better! Sorry didn’t see you but was manic both days, never had two days so busy at a show! Hoping you’re taking notes for your shindig next year in terms of layout, etc of stands and alleys.

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

I have 3 pages of notes of things I’d like to change! Omnia does look interesting.

[@philhyde2635]

Jobs worth on the car park.

[@davespruce4362]

You would be happier if she was pulling weeds for peanuts I presume?

[@richardmatthews3304]

Thanks for the tour round ceteals andrew, planed to go but had to go silaging, must be climate change dry on welsh border wet in hertfordshire, there must be a huge amount of work and planning put into the trial plots. They are really well presented, you shouldnt have a problem parking next year andrew😅,

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

😂😂😂😂 I should be able to park in the middle of sprays and sprayers if I wanted!!

[@AngelaTaylorValeofBelvoir]

A really informative video Andrew. Thank you. Smashing!

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

👍😊

[@garyreid7865]

only following orders

[@alanroygbiv]

Parking jobsworth😂

[@chrisnichols5208]

Hi great update can you tell me what happens to all the trial plots are they combined or just destroyed also would love to know the value of the machines tractors combines trailers you show us I guess pretty expensive

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Bit of a mix, some combined, some just chopped up and worked in the soil but depends on what the host farmer wants to do as well. I don’t know the true cost of most of the machines and there’s always discount from the dealers or manufacturers. The big combines are £700k +, big tractors £400-£500k and your average 200 hp tractor about £270k but I wouldn’t buy anything without a discount of a minimum of 35% but that’s the value of doing these videos!

[@chrisnichols5208]

It’s very expensive being a farmer by the looks of it machinery very costly I truly appreciate all the hard work you do and fellow farmers providing us with as much own grown food as possible Thank you

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Thank you. It’s not easy with all the regs we have to follow and prices of inputs constantly rise but our selling price doesn’t.

[@ericwilson5742]

Great video Andrew feel like I was at the show now . Always wondered do they plant and manage the plots the year before the show to have them look so well ?

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

They start the previous Aug for establishing the grass and all the crops from then through to next spring.

[@kevinharker1840]

The lady on the gate didn't sound like a local lass.....VOTE REFORM 😁

[@Mysterious258]

Don’t you know who I am 😂

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

😂😂

[@andrewspedding]

How do they create the trail plots are they drill last back end or grown in a green house and transplanted

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Drilled in the field with small plot drill, similar machine to the one Agrii do ours with.

[@sparrow758]

Walkways seem fine to be for the amount of people there.......

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

Problem was if 3 or 4 people stopped to talk, the whole walkway was blocked, that didn’t used to happen when they were wider.

[@geoffreymoore2204]

Round stone only one any good as crushed stone tightens to much

[@peterwilson-qj2ds]

However did Olly not laugh at that woman, she was a bit of a jobs worth. A good update Andrew . some nice pieces of kit on the horsch stand. I always find the smaller stands have good idea's , and have great deals to be had .

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

I really enjoy looking at all the kit and crops but i need more than 2 days!

[@davespruce4362]

Wow, KZbin privilege on show.
