Very interesting video, but shame about the voiceover.
Could you do a video on the Ridley Wheat Reaper? That was another groundbreaking invention made in South Australia.
Your script comes across as a pile of wank, less wanking and it would be more enjoyable to listen too.
I wonder if any Labor politicians have watched this?
Spurce ructuose !
You keep repeating yourself over and over there is no more useful information after a few moments of this video
@@Poorexampeofhuman you mustn’t have liked the Dunolly shed at the end? Or seeing how the stick shed sits in the middle of the currant murtoa grain site?
Soo neat to see a history time capsule
Merredin has the largest wheat shed in the Southern Hemisphere.
I thought it was a real working tractor and not a model. 😢 It's still really neat, though.
Glad i dont have to sweep that shed
While making this video I found a video of a cupple blokes that worked in there around the last time it was emptied and they said, “there would be 20 blokes in the shed, you’d all get a broom and get told to sweep the shed, lol. You couldn’t see ya mate beside ya for dust”
The size of the building is impressive but what is really impressive is the fact that the "sticks" are single mountain Ash trees!
Need to factor that the land clearing through the wheatbelt up until 1970/1980, from the darling range to the goldfields and north to the Murchison, has caused a decrease in rainfall by 20%, and increase in soil salinity to the entire south west WA, the range of farmland has also diminished by approx 15% due to desert encroachment caused by deforestation. It is literally killing south west Western Australia. Reforestation is urgently required through the entire Wheatbelt as much as 15-20% needs to be completed urgently.
All I can see with this is a lot of work!!! lol….i would hate to be the poor bastards cleaning this miserable SOB out!
I am the very proud grandson of Joseph Smith who emigrated to Australia in 1922 at the age of 17, as a "Barwell Boy". Barwell Boys were young boys encouraged to emigrate to South Australia from England by the then Premier of South Australia Henry Barwell, as farm apprentices. My grand father used a five furrow stump jump plough towed by 6 horses, which were ultimately superseded by the tractor. He switched to bee keeping and honey production in the late 1930's supposedly in response to demand for this product. He was an apiarist , as was his son Geoff for the rest of his working career until the death of his wife in the late 1980's.
Is this AI narration? it says 'Dunolly' really weird
Yeah mate it’s best I could get it to do. Sorry, and don’t worry it done my head in listening to to over and over while editing, as I’m from the Dunolly area, haha it got the job done tho
Great video, lacks authenticity with the tacky AI Voiceover.
Mate, that's not an AI voice. It's the typical Australian accent!
@gooseknack lol
Rat, mice and vermin infested grains though.......
Russian Bot.
@@michaelmcclown5593 Yo mamma bot i just left her bedroom
👀🙆 very big
Australia is not even in the top 10 list. Russia at 12.7 % and Australia. 2.7 %
Robot you can’t even pronounce Dun Olly, suggest you go back to school.
Russia producing 125 m tons of wheat annually..selling them to China
Very interesting. Wish you would have shown and talked more about how it was loaded and unloaded
@@shopshop144 I was intending to do animations showing it, but animating with grain isn’t easy to make it look good. ( with my skill anyway ).. and also I didn’t want to get any details wrong and cop it from everyone.
Very interesting.
apparently tall timber is really scarce now to repair heritage trestle bridges.
@@darylcheshire1618 prob all got harvested for power poles years ago
It’s available in the Victorian National Forest areas but logging got banned (by court order) three years ago.
Could use Stobie poles probably. Look funny on a trestle bridge but SA have been using them as power poles for years.
@ Spun concrete poles last longer.
@@allangibson8494 ok
Note. you're not pronouncing it correctly. It's Marrtowa ....... NOT Murtoooa
What do you expect from an AI voice
the computer doesn’t care
I live in Hamilton, and I've always wanted to visit here. I'm on leave from work at the moment, and I've earmarked this to do while I'm on leave... funny that you've just uploaded this now. I havent watched it yet, just paused it for now so i can comment, but I want to go see it before I watch the whole video!
@@utetopia1620 awesome mate. I’d wanted to go see it for 10 years, and finally did it Monday gone, was amazing, only tips I’d give ya iv chose a cooler day if possible, it was around 28-30* when I was there and you really notice the heat beaming down from the tin onto you, mostly when you sit and watch the movie in the shed.. but walking around was great… and def leave yourself well over an hour to walk around,.. there’s also 3 videos in the gift shop that are worth watching. Thanks for the comment mate. Let me know how you go there 👍
Just for the record , Murtoa is pronounced with far less emphasis on the R
Haha thanks mate, hard to get the ai voice I use to say small Australian town names well. I tryed many times 👍
A bit like Eddie Murphy screaming out "Muh legs! Muh legs! I cant feel Muh legs!", only "Muh toah!"
@@utetopia1620 A far better description of the pronunciation than my effort and it is spot on . Perhaps we may even get the powers to be to acknowledge Muhtoah as the correct spelling of Murtoa .
@@Reds_engineering Subject was interesting, but I nearly hit the dump button when I soon realised it was artificial voice, a hallmark of crap YT channels. Better find a better way of doing voice over.
@ it works fine it just can’t pronounce small Australian town names well, I do my best to fix it wear I can. Thanks for watching everyone
It is a great place to visit really need to go and see it Pictures just don't get HOW big it is :) :)
Speak English,how many feet long,wide etc.Old true Australian's never spoke that woke transgender metric shite.
wow👍
Wow yes them old guys knew how to get things done
thanks for the history lesson
There is several CBH sites in WA bigger than that site. The Co-operative Bulk Handling (CBH) facility in Merredin, Western Australia has a maximum storage capacity of 860,000 tonnes of wheat. The Merredin CBH facility includes the largest storage bin in the southern hemisphere, which can hold 600,000 tonnes of grain. The bin is 610 meters long and 59 meters high.
Were they built in WW2 ?
yes my video does say Murtoa is the biggest INLAND grain storage in Australia. I dont know how i didnt come across this 610 meter shed. Amazing!! Maybe the Merridlin site isnt inland enough? but it says its 3 hours from Perth so idk
@@stewatparkpark2933 It was in reference to the comment at 7.16.
@@Reds_engineering Check it out on Google maps, the site is huge including the open bulk heads where some have blue tarps on them.
Yeah when I made the last video I did see pics of this place but I was only looking for port pics so I skipped over it. Not realising its size. Sometimes these things just don’t look the right scale. These vic sheds were still amazing. The murtoa shed was a sight to see
A lot of sunlight getting through the roofing iron now, imagine resheeting that.
imagine trying to get the first sheet/row straight when they started sheeting it.
China cancelled a 1 million tonne wheat order a couple of months ago. I hope our farmers can inject some sense into our anti Russia/China politicians! If not, Australia faces a grim grain future.......
Bit old now, WA’s been doing over 25m tons of grain annually for a few years now
The facts I was going off were 2022 harvest I’m pretty sure
More of this and less artificial incompetence text to speech videos.
Mate I read a 10 min script it would sound shit house, I’m a farmer/engineer not a voice actor mate. Haha
Down the track I will be doing real videos of me making things in the shed, but for now it’s farming docos, trying to build up my audience (subs ) atm
Talk about the binder and why the hay is being cut with a binder instead of the sunshine header.
And the creation of the basic wage. Most significant workers advance since the eight hour day.
2:25 This picture is from Lismore, Victoria btw. riordans is a large transporter of anything grain related in vic
I know mate, I brought a grain bin in Lismore once. That part with the riodans truck was ment to have an animation showing other things but something glitched during the upload. Riodans have a nice fleet 👍
WA's ports... shows pictures of Port Kembla and what's the one at about 5:50? It must be an old pic as the ship tied up and the architecture of the surrounding area suggests just post WW2
i thought it looked a bit strange. i might be wrong but there are some sheds back from leighton beach which might be the asbestos covered ones we demolished 30 years ago.
@@goatfiddler8384 sorry guys I didn’t wanna just show the same 4 port pics over and over, and coz I was talking about export I used pics from everywear, theres even a pic of the Geelong port to… I’m Victorian. I just find the WA wheat industry amazing, thanks for watching
a very old photof fremantle port
How much of this system is owned by the Salim Group? I had just assumed that grain on this scale was US based outfits behind the scenes like so much of global Ag. Weird seeing that a coop founded in the 30s in Aus would partner w such vital crop. Sure beats being in Chinas pocket tho! Cheers from Santa Cruz Ca
0%. CBH is cooperative100% owned by the WA farmers that deliver to it. Annual revenue is $6.0B making it the 4th largest private company in Australia competing in size with major mining companies.
Most of the land is owned by large corporations, superfunds, and large private farmers. Towns have died, jobs are seasonal, and the wheatbelt turns into a desert over summer. Thankyou politicians for allowing the destruction of our state
Headlie Taylor, the Thomas Edison of his time. A brilliant man who changed grain farming forever. I have a 1950 Massey-Harris self-propelled combine waiting for restoration, and very little differs from the basic working mechanisms Taylor invented.
Compare social conservative HV McKay, to the current mob of fear mongering, god botherers that call themselves 'liberals' in Victoria.
And now it’s full of junkies
Honestly, it’s not for off being like Detroit ay, besides the muslims
Nice one bloke.
They still have the Sunshine Harvester primary school in 2024
How far we've fallen...
With corrupted government and communist unions is the reason this once great country with a great machinery manufacturing industry is all gone 😡
ahhh... nothing to do with global trade then?
Interesting 😊
