Good one folks... I liked the .. not having to get going so early bit...... and there's your dad clattering away outside just making shure your up and about 😊😅.. stay safe 🏴
Great video. Would be great to see some science and comparisons on gain weights , types of ration. Sugcess or not of matts . Straw versus slats. Beet versus no beet. Anothere video catogery for ya agscience genere type videos'😂. Its alot of hardship beet. First year in a long time here on our farm without beet. So far so good
We going to sit and watch you I think I suggest to do life of farmerPhil and liv so can’t wait to watch.So so interesting and glad your showing us .Good luck 🍀 and Peace ☮️ and blessings.💟💟💟💟💟💯💯💯💯☮️☮️☮️☮️🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻🧑🎄🧑🎄🧑🎄🧑🎄🧑🎄🧑🎄🧑🎄🤶🤶🤶🤶🤶🤶🤶
The Defender doesn’t take much of a load ever! At best a dog and some bits in the back. Not much of a vehicle for doing things in, just a good looking machine. Well wear
This video every year I just cringe at the shunting to push in, few hundred quid for any oul type of one you’ll be saying you wish you done it years ago
All you'd have to do is make a bracket that hooks on to the bucket of the sheer grab drive in tilt up it will stay on, level out, reverse wheel comes off would save a lot of time
I got a rotating tractor tyre type one for hooking on sheargrab last year. Absolute bollox of a yoke. Keeps twisting sideways, and of ye try forcing it.. it crumples up. I work same as Phil
Get the double tyre pusher, with a bracket each side, just slide onto the shear grab, used on for years. Would save bulk time and be more even feed for the cattle.
With those birds sitting in the trees around the yard, best to cut down and remove the trees - they don't serve any purpose and only attract unwanted birds. Interesting observation you made about the Peakcocks.
Your a man with.little interest in the environment, I am feeding cattle here with loads of mature trees around with no bird issues.. trees and hedgerows are part of our heritage, good for biodiversity, help prevent flooding, and essential for our survival,
@@hughcarrigan7824 cut them down and clear the space. Trees and Hedgerows have a place - out in the field well away from the buildings. Trees around the buildings need to be removed. No tree or hedgerow prevents flooding - only drainage and dredging prevent flooding!
Each mature tree stores 6 ton of carbon or about 20 ton of carbon dioxide over a period of 150 years. You would need to replant 43 thousand saplings to soak up that carbon in 5 years. In other words every tree is precious and should be saved if possible. Old trees have huge biodiversity benefits that young trees don't have. Without biodiversity there would be no life on earth. I'm farming here efficiently as anybody the farm looks a picture with trees and hedgerows kept perfect and I keep adding a few every year to replace any dead trees etc. We need to think about it a little more that all I'm saying and trees and hedgerows in the env do slow down water flow and help prevent flooding.
@hughcarrigan7824 what about the cow farts from your cattle????? - the highest source of environmental pollution! As Gretta would say - How Dare You!!! Not to mention the pollution caused in rivers from your slurry, your use of fertiliser and chemical sprays. Your monostands of grass in fields. The pollution from the diesel engines in your machinery. When is the last time you actually maintained your hedgerow....and I don't mean just chopping it with a hedge cutter - no I mean when is the last time you Coppiced and rejuvenated your entire hedgerow. Hedgerows are of course a windbreak and over time a hedgerow will accumulate higher soil levels than the field being cultivated on either side of them. When is the last time you cleared the hedgerow to regrade the ground level to allow for the movement and drainage across your field in into/onto the neighboring field? Have you looked at the impact of your lack of management has on your neighbors and their water management? Your trees - are the smothered in ivy too like in this video? What benefit is it to have a large old tree beside a building covered in dense heavy ivy. A strong wind and eventually the tree blows over due to your lack of maintenance to remove the invasive Ivy. A large tree beside a barn/livestock shed also will keep the building cooler in the winter as it shades the sun. It will keep the immediate surrounding moist and damp. Trees beside structures will degrade your buildings as the leaves clog the gutters, downpipes and the surface drains. Trees beside a building will damage the foundations from their roots. Like everything, Trees have a place - but never beside your buildings. @hughcarrigan7824 if trees are soo important to you, then why haven't you removed all livestock from your farm and plant every field with a bio diverse multispecies tree forest to benefit nature? Own what you say and live it yourself. How many trees have you planted to offset the methane and ammonia pollution caused by your cow farts???
Could you do a walkaround the whole yard and show us where everything is? And how the cattle are looking? We’re all nosy bastards Also would like to see a full video on the diet, cost, kg, quality, how it looks etc. show us how the interior of the beet washer chopper works.
Congratulations, Philip! Keep up the good work
Can’t believe you haven’t got a silage pusher
Id put the silage pusher on the back of a tractor if I was you.
You will need to clear a space for your land-rover in the workshop, they seem to love repair bays 😂
Good one folks... I liked the .. not having to get going so early bit...... and there's your dad clattering away outside just making shure your up and about 😊😅.. stay safe 🏴
Hi Phil i grab a lorry tyre with the shear grab to push in the silage it does a very clean job
Did I see another 2000 series Massey in the yard when you were moving the 6480?Its the fact it had doors caught my attention.
It belongs to my cousin doing the yard
U should get the one with the wheel 0n it
Hi Phil, always nice to see what you are doing around the farm.
Farmer Phil, l like the way you keep front of the silage pit so straight and tidy
Get farther Phil to make you a silage pusher
My man crying out for a silage pusher Jesus 😂
Any sign of the phone yet in the silage?😂
Unfortunately not🙈
@@FARMERPHIL3690 might turn up yet, say it fell out when you were rolling between loads.
Cracking video as always. Life on a farm is never dull. There’s always something to be done
Really enjoyed that. Happy Christmas to all the Stewart family.
the shear bucket looks to do a great job on the silage pit very straight pit face could you do a video on sharpening the grab please
Good old video, it must be the first winter in while were ya didnt get a demo handlier
Great video Phil, you should make yourself a push in wheel save some time 👍
Great video. Would be great to see some science and comparisons on gain weights , types of ration. Sugcess or not of matts . Straw versus slats. Beet versus no beet. Anothere video catogery for ya agscience genere type videos'😂. Its alot of hardship beet. First year in a long time here on our farm without beet. So far so good
Phil, how bout you and Liv heading out to a good wee sing song and relax, would do you both good. All work and no play made Jack a dull boy 😢
And a few pints maybe
Famer phil that's a fine load of cattle you have in the big shed. Martin flaherty .
Good to see your not skiving when Father Phil is getting the 1200 done 😂
Just a quick question phil i know you told us before in your videos but how many cattle in total have yous
Go make a wheel for pushing in
Can't believe that you have not got a wheel for pushing in the silage.
Good to see that you are getting things done.
Great video. Long days doing the farm work, shop work, odd jobs & videos. Keep up the good work.
I'd cut an inch or 2 off the brush bristles .
Brilliant video as always
First
You must have no life 😂😂😂
Why don't you buy a wheel to push in the feed
Why don't you get a wheel pusher that fits on the grab? You'd save a lot of time pushing in the silage
Won’t fit on a shear bucket
Nice one Phil, ye deserve a lie in for a few weeks
Best of luck with everything on the farm this time a year 👍👍👍
That was a great video farmer Phil with your cattle
Hon Phil... Paint the 1200 RED SILVER N BLACK
that would be horrible
Good stuff
Good stuff

Great video Phil. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼
2645 a new arrival ?
Belongs to my cousin doing the yard
A great work horse
Hi Phil great video merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄🎄🎄❤❤
Maybe more time for a flecking haircut?
Good video farmer Phil ❤❤❤ i am watching it in the hospital
I had a farming accident ❤❤
Hope you recover quickly
On the mend now
👍
How old are some of your stone walls along your driveways and in the fields? No one every talks about them and are not seen in the USA.
Ones side was rebuilt in 2008 the other was there before my grandfather moved there
8011 very lonely outside in the yard
Why did ye buy the green ration bin as ye never used it?
Great video Phil a busy day
Where s the 3690 these days.
This video every year I just cringe at the shunting to push in, few hundred quid for any oul type of one you’ll be saying you wish you done it years ago
I think in a video a while ago he said that they have a wheel but Phil prefers to use the grab just his own preference
A wheel wouldn’t fit on the shear bucket as there are no tines and it wouldn’t be time efficient to hook on and off the shear every day
All you'd have to do is make a bracket that hooks on to the bucket of the sheer grab drive in tilt up it will stay on, level out, reverse wheel comes off would save a lot of time
I got a rotating tractor tyre type one for hooking on sheargrab last year. Absolute bollox of a yoke. Keeps twisting sideways, and of ye try forcing it.. it crumples up. I work same as Phil

A constant drop wears a hole in the stone.
