Anna is so funny I think she could do her own channel so positive and such a hard worker Tom your lucky having such positive people around you including Luke and Katie
Anna and Katie are a credit to youngster's and young farmers Definitely not work shy, keen to learn and a asset to the farm Taking the time to share your knowledge and encouragement will pay dividends tenfold Well done to you all Keep the videos coming, we need more Sunday vids
There needs to be a Tom Pemberton Farm Life V2 that Is all about Anna. She's a star. I met her last week at the farm when I stopped in for a breakfast roll, she is just as friendly and full of life in real life. A real credit to herself and the farm.
You have had some excellent farm interns. But all your female farmers have rocked, starting with Heidi. They work hard and are eager to learn and try new tasks. Hats off to the ladies!!!
She’s right! There is plenty of grass there! The last days grazing is your 30 days lost in a grazing season. We used to graze lower and milk never dropped (Disclaimer: long time ago) PUT PADDOCKS IN!👍
Would be cool to have a meet the team type video, Anna seems initially like someone very much just getting into farming but we get glimpses of what seems an interesting start to her farming career. If they were up for a wee lazy Sunday q&a I think it would make a good vid
Tom & Andy… take that strip and MOB graze it. If you can only graze it then pack it full of cattle straight out of the barn. Give them blocks of land, move them every few hours and your strip is fertilized! Do this once a season, let em trample grass in, crap all over it and the following months you’ll see amazing growth. All within the rules 🤫😉
Happy Friday everybody happy cows everybody. Love how Katie and Anna are able to push Tom around. It just shows how wonderful Tom is. Hope everyone has a great weekend. I enjoyed learning about the grants so thank you. That was very interesting. How they did that. Be well be you
In my part of the world everyone is wading in grass ,and it has been the best year for grass for many years ,we have thin gravel soils very prone to drought but that's certainly not a problem this year
Thank you, Tom for showing # 191 now that she has calved - looks like she has developed very well. Kiwi fruit should (imo) always be eaten just like an apple and yes skin as well = added fibre. Really enjoyed the more chilled vibe of this video Tom. The time you spend training staff will always pay off and the whole team grows in confidence & enthusiasm as well. Totally agree it's long overdue organising the paddock grazing system however, you've been a tad busy on other projects!!
Love your videos. So nice that you’re so open to allowing Anna and Katie all the experience and exposure to farm techniques and work that they want. Your love for farming has really opened that door for a lot of young farmers that are up and coming. Have a great weekend. ❤❤
I hear how hard the dairy industry is on cows. I say to those who say it, watch Tom Pemberton, his dairy cows are in heaven, they are loved and well cared for and have a great life!
Tom, hang gates and barriers in the show room as you call it and turn that into a calf shed. Forget about using it as a viewing area for now. Get your calves in order before any of that. They are priority. Keep up the good work.
If there are sheds over the beef area of the farm, mainly the smaller sheds where the highlands stayed can’t you rig that to be a calving area by putting the small single pens against the back wall with a large are for later weened calves
Trouble with up and coming youngsters on a farm is, you spend lots time with them, educating them, showing them right, wrong ways, then after 2-3 years they move forward to a better position. But..thats what i did and 10,000s other people who went on to senior positions. I loved teaching students when i was at reaseheath college on the dairy unit and when ever ive had chance since. They are the future for a decent farming future.
Feel your pain with the amount of water, we had an undiagnosed hot water leak, apparently the space under the floor boards was steaming up for months. Fortunatetly we were able to put in drying machines, which is why I'm a bit late watching your film, mind would have been a bit pricey for you to run. 🤣😂 Anna is so cool, she needs her own channel, oh yes she has its called Tom Pemberton Farm Life 😎👍
Lucky for some being able to get grants easy, us in parts of Scotland have just been screwed by the Scottish government and stopping any payments if we put fertiliser or keep animals on ground deeper than 50cm as there might be peat under it. This is for the disadvantaged areas like the Highlands and islands and most of the West coast of Scotland
Just looking at your farm on google earth and had a thought why not put the calf in the part of the barn where the potable milking parlour was and old barn to be used as storage till in a year or two build a new cafeing center in the south east of the farm .
The only thing we did that got around it was once it was grazed was go in mow what was left and then bale it into some hay bales. The little you get encourages it to grow back plus its a few extra bales especially this year worth a think 🤷♂️
Great video. But depending on how much grass (length) you want to leave after grazing ... I'm going to have to agree ... theres grass still. Love your video's.
I so agree the Grass growth has been not good this year , the lack of heat is a problem until the last few weeks , but our ground needs rain ideally every week , also but i know you do not need that , but yes grass growth is not great this year, i would have not put cows back on that field that Anna said there was plenty for them either
When I was in Italy for a vacation ...the gentlemen who served me a kiwi pealed it and sliced it....was very impressed...home grown kiwi the size of an orange
A farming friend of mine had an injector slurry tanker, pumped the slurry under the surface, cows can graze the same day. Does require a for more ponies.
Sorry Anna, Tom so right about the grass. You will never get the grass to grow if it is completely grazed down. Gotta leave a good bit of green behind so the sun will have enough to work with. Of course I realize your sunshine has been MIA of late. Keep up the rotating Tom, it will pay off big over some time🫶
Yesterday 4th August we visited Pembertons Farm shop,very nice ,but going outside to the viewing area we saw a pet rabbit looking very sad,it was sat on cold paving slabs with no bedding at all,and no food ,our little grandson was quite upset seeing this lonely bunny, so Tom please give him some bedding and food.
Forget arable!! Never has there been so much debate and argument, across the entire world, about managing, growing, cropping and grazing one very small selection of species of plants, all of them forage grasses. LLLLOL For us non-veggies/vegans, this really is very important!! And entertaining, like this! Nice to see some smiles and p-taking again too. Winter and the cows coming in is not SO far away LOL.
Years ago I saw a video by Greg Judy, who does the mob grazing in America. It was a far where they were improving their soil by putting out big round bales in the summer after baling, and then mob grazing through the field in the winter but using the bales rather than grass. Would you be allowed to do that on the strip of land next to the wood that you’re not allowed to fertilise, if the bales are coming from your own land? Use some of your youngstock? Their soil testing showed a fantastic increase in the soil quality (urine, trampled hay, manure) - your land might be too wet - but perhaps it isn’t next to the wood as the trees dry the land out more?
Great banter you and Anna Tom, think you need to put her on camera and tell us ,UA-cam world , her experiences farming abroad, thought you would of had small bales of straw for calves,, easy to work with less waste, hope your dad is doing well 👍🍻
She is rite about grass left behind, but that is residual and the less residual left behind the better for growth. Keep track of area ur giving them to control grazing and residual
Hi Tom, when you do your paddocks, have you thought about putting chicken tractors over the fields after the cows. As they will level the cow pats, As well as fertilising the field to. Then you can have eggs and chickens to sell in the shop. Then you are getting three crops out of one field? Regards Chris D
Hi Tom, I hope you don't mind but I told a farm gal Sam Stutt you might be able to give her some advice in getting her cow shed set up with cubicles ( I think that's what you call them.) for the winter. She and her husband Oliver have maybe 30 cows and they are not sure how big they should be and a few other questions. She just started a UA-cam channel with her name if you are curious and want to see what she is asking about. It was in her latest video, Aug 1st.
With all the rain you’ve been dealing with, farming has been quite the challenge this year for sure. Could it be…2025, the year of the new calf barn???
Milkers always like fresh new grass ahead of them, to Anna there probably is a lot of grass there being vertically challenged it seem like a forest. Good bit of banter in the cab today.
Another busy day! Can we have a little time with the babbies in there? ;-) They're always so cute and nice to meet. Yeah, yeah, Yeah, I know the reality behind them but..babbies!
Would you think a calf shed would be more beneficial than a roof on the silage pit. On the grass, terrible year, but the year has a way in balancing itself out. In other words we probably will have a fine dry autumn into winter
have to say i eat a kiwi with a spoon, i am shamed. I also didnt think anyone else used the phrase hair past a freckle, my mum always used it and ive always used it since if ive no watch. hope the warmer weather weve had the last week or so is helping!
Are there any plans afoot to increase your solar power intake? Maybe add a few dozen more panels to all that new Silo roof space? Maybe a battery storage option?
189th! T.G.I.F.! Tom,Luke,Anna ,Hiedie,Hanna, and the ginger warrior with a mustache, and everyone else working on the farm. I GOT NOTHIN! Roger in Pierre South Dakota USA
That's the problem, he doesn't have a rotation by the looks of it. What was that 62kg/acre of 27% so 34 units of N,no wonder the cows don't eat near the dungs. Assuming that is per 21 day rotation . Doubt 😂
What is the logic in having the ‘reserved’ strip as a condition of the grant? I can understand no chemical but why not natural fertiliser like slurry or box muck?
Anna is so funny I think she could do her own channel so positive and such a hard worker Tom your lucky having such positive people around you including Luke and Katie

Keep the videos coming, we need more Sunday vids
And they put ideas forward, may not be used but hey are thinking out of the box.
And they are as entertaining as hell. They are the comedy relief of Pembertons farm.
I love Anna, she keeps you on your toes. Such a great addition to your team!!
I reckon Anna should do some of your Sunday videos, she's a you tube star in the making. Keep up the great work guys

Love when Anna takes the piss out of you. Fun stuff.
Hair past a freckle! Not heard that for years!!! Anna is brilliant ❤
Umm. was my mothers saying. BUT why not two freckles past a hair......... ?
@@pseggons9512 two freckles past a hair is later than a hair past a freckle and even later than hair past two freckles 🤣
Its half past a Freckle and a Quarter to a Hair
You have had some excellent farm interns. But all your female farmers have rocked, starting with Heidi. They work hard and are eager to learn and try new tasks. Hats off to the ladies!!!
Tom!!! You should do a Q&A with Anna & Katie so we can get to know them, like you did with Heidi

Film everything and hire an editor and post daily!!! Just can’t get enough of this FARM LIFE!!!!
Good to meet you on Saturday afternoon Tom, thanks for taking the time to come out and chat. Totally made my tip down south worth it!
Yeah definitely Tom eat the skin. I was at yours on Monday. Saw your pops. He's looking well. Hope your all ok. Hope to see you soon. 😊
Happy Friday everybody happy cows everybody. Love how Katie and Anna are able to push Tom around. It just shows how wonderful Tom is. Hope everyone has a great weekend. I enjoyed learning about the grants so thank you. That was very interesting. How they did that. Be well be you
It's good to see a general farming day.
Videos are so fun when Anna's on them 😄😄
Great video as always nice see anna in it as see always makes me smile
In my part of the world everyone is wading in grass ,and it has been the best year for grass for many years ,we have thin gravel soils very prone to drought but that's certainly not a problem this year
skin on always! who has time to find a spoon! also Anna giving you a hard time is comedy gold 😂
Love Anna and Katie!!!! Hugs to Harvey. Let us see Harvey and Jo again please!!!

An idea for the shared farm agreement, swap the cattle muck for straw as straws dear and you would get some for free by swapping it
Awesome Anna!!! Loved the luscious grass and snobby cows not eating food on the plate comment! Never tried eating skin on kiwi, but will now.
I hear how hard the dairy industry is on cows. I say to those who say it, watch Tom Pemberton, his dairy cows are in heaven, they are loved and well cared for and have a great life!

Hi Tom, I don't know anything about grazing but could you not improve the buffer strip by sewing meadow mix wildflowers?
Good video Tom, lots going on that should get the grass growing.
If there are sheds over the beef area of the farm, mainly the smaller sheds where the highlands stayed can’t you rig that to be a calving area by putting the small single pens against the back wall with a large are for later weened calves
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Farm is looking great as usual. Wishing you and your family the best.

might sound like a silly question,but how will they know if you put a cheeky bit of fertilizer on it ans still graze it later
Because you never know when they come out and do random tests on the ground to check if conditions were met of not spreading fert/slurry
Great video. Enhanced by Anna, she’s a hoot
Feel your pain with the amount of water, we had an undiagnosed hot water leak, apparently the space under the floor boards was steaming up for months.

Hello to you. This is a great video. Thank you🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉. Ha, ha, she's a character😂😂😂😂😂. Love this kitchen ❤❤.
CLICK LIKE if you think Anna should get a 2-5 minute camera/talk once a week to bring up Tom's mistakes or shenanigans! 😂🎉
Shut up and stop begging for likes. Everyone hates like beggars
Get down to the westcountry, the growth of grass has been phenomenal.
If your able to put a bit off progibb on and you will have grass up to your eye balls in 2 weeks we use quite a bit over here in New Zealand
I so agree the Grass growth has been not good this year , the lack of heat is a problem until the last few weeks , but our ground needs rain ideally every week , also but i know you do not need that , but yes grass growth is not great this year, i would have not put cows back on that field that Anna said there was plenty for them either
Love Anna and a tom video always funny.
There not snobs ❤😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 she is hilarious we love her Tom can we see more of her please 🙏 😂😂😂😂😂
☘️💚 great video Tom and staff keep up the great work weather permitting 💚 😊👍☘️
Hope you get some good grass growing weather. 😊

BeWell and StaySafe ✌️
If its a crack in the trough go and get some CT1 silicone, it'll set underwater if it needs to and will do the job for the time being 👌🏻

Olly and Morgan would be in tears with the muddy boots in the cab, arable V dairy farming!!!
Another very interesting video Thank you
Whatever happened to your fancy rotational grazing plan you had someone design, have you started implementing that yet to help with grass growth?
She is rite about grass left behind, but that is residual and the less residual left behind the better for growth. Keep track of area ur giving them to control grazing and residual
Thus year tom will hit 1 million subscribers
Please 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 more . Thomas lol😊. Sorry carnt remember waht you zd. Afto watch again 😊
Have you notice any difference where you put the supersoil on the fields ?
Tom… past your old Hurliman Tractor near Gisburn yesterday👍

Absolutely agree.
we need a Q and A with Anna
videos are defo better with anna in the cab comedic effect is priceless
You won’t learn until you do the job, and then you’re proud❤👍👍👍🙂🙂😎😎😎👌👌
How long is the buffer strip against the woodland active for? Top video once again

Have you thought about calf hutches or bigger ones for a group of calves as a temporary building
Would you think overseeding clover into the buffer strip to fix nitrogen?
With all the rain you’ve been dealing with, farming has been quite the challenge this year for sure.
Could it be…2025, the year of the new calf barn???
i expect so, he got the grant for it
Tom what about speaking to Goodyear Titan tyres low ground pressure tyres there amazing it would certainly help you in the soft mud
We miss Jo and the boy, she is so funny and keeps you in line.😅
Tom maybe put up roof between the new parlour shed and the big shed
Milkers always like fresh new grass ahead of them, to Anna there probably is a lot of grass there being vertically challenged it seem like a forest. Good bit of banter in the cab today.
Anna is the star
New merch shirt with Anna saying "Stop Faffing About"

You should be pumping out manure with a drag line to make that grass grow. Do you ever aerate your feilds or drag to bust up poop

Anna is a star 👍👍🚜🚜👍👍
Morning Tom.
Tom do you not top the grass after the cows have done grazing ?
How are the solar cells doing? are they helping with power
What day rotation are you on with the cows Tom? And how many units of N are applied each rotation?
That's the problem, he doesn't have a rotation by the looks of it. What was that 62kg/acre of 27% so 34 units of N,no wonder the cows don't eat near the dungs.
Assuming that is per 21 day rotation . Doubt 😂
His certainly aiming to change the way he grazes. You never stop learning.
What is the logic in having the ‘reserved’ strip as a condition of the grant? I can understand no chemical but why not natural fertiliser like slurry or box muck?
I think it is the SW4 grant. The purpose seems to reduce nutrient runoff into waterways and to give wildlife more room and habitat.
