Baldy’s Farm
Приєднався 13 лип 2018
Hey there, I'm James Herrick and I am Beef and Arable farmer from Leicestershire, UK. 🧑🌾
This page is all about what happens on my farm on a day to day basis. You get to see my daily routines, how we run our farm and hopefully learn a bit more about how your food is produced. You may also get an insight into me and what I get up to away from the farm. 🚜
The channel gets its name from my godson. He loves to visit the farm and see the animals and has always known me as Baldy…hence ‘Baldy’s Farm’.
Hope you enjoy the channel and if you ever want to chat about anything, leave a message and ill endeavour to get back to you. 🙂

Our Cattle Have NEVER Looked So good | Bale Grazing Economics | Winter Has Started.
Its official. WINTER IS HERE!
We make the decision to bring a group of cows home from Thornton and house them ready for the winter. However, it's not all bad news.
We have managed to keep the cows out for much longer this year using the Burge Bale Unroller that you have seen previously on the channel, so I decided to show you how the economics of buying the machine stack up.
I hope you enjoy it and Merry Christmas everyone!
