  • Many thanks to @syngenta for sponsoring this episode.
    Their closed transfer system allows for safe use of chemicals when spraying crops and we hear from one operator who loves the system. Take a look at their full range of agri-chemical products at www.syngenta.co.uk/
    Also in this episode, Angela hears from Farm Manager, Andrew Orme about the tough decision to rip up a field of failed OSR and plant a new crop of barley in it. Time is of the essence though as the window of opportunity for planting runs out.
    Stephen pays a visit to a farmers' market at Houghton Tower. Sheep farmer John Holt explains why trade isn't too bad, but lambing conditions at home are very tough.

    Its my first time watching this. Absolutely brilliant to see real people and real life. 2024 has been a nightmare for livestock and arable farmers, as if farming wasn't hard enough. We, as a country need to support/back our farmers. 🇬🇧

    This week on The Real Country file, we head to Olly Harrisons and stare at Tom Pembertons bucket brush, wondering if it will decompose before Tom decides to get it finished.😂❤

    Like the intro music better than the other one😊
    Good to see Andrew again, he hasn't lost his touch with operating/repairing equipment.
    The lamb farmer was interesting too, plus were having lamb for our tea 😊

    Good to see John so chipper. It will help enormously to see younger shoppers seeing the benefits of buying direct.

    I have managed to chain harrow my fields, in the week I plan to roll it in tomorrow if I can.
    My neighbour cut and baled some grass here in Cornwall.

    Steven has an issue with his Mics which could be the common problem Rode has with the Rode Go II where the safety channel is enabled which puts sound into mono sound. You need to switch the safety channel off in the Rode software on a computer to fix it.

    Unfortunately spring barley should be sown with some dust flying, if it dries quickly it will go together like concrete, good Luck

    Andrew missing being a movie star. Looks as though we now know where you're missing 10mm spanner is, it's curled around his wrist. Puddles again here overnight in North Lincolnshire

    The land is just soaked through everywhere - hope it stops raining soon, for all our sakes. 🙏

    When did Andrew move on from Sprayer Driver to Farm Manager and movie star? He didn’t say much when he worked for you. Full of chat now

    Ollie as an owner of an east connect that I have actually paid for not been given I would agree with most of what Ian said except one fundamental as that can he showed was unmarked because no chemicals actually come with the caps so unless you have a batch of caps and are prepared to swop them it is a waste of time at the moment. Have you had any yourself? Sorry to be negative but you need to be careful you are “real” and not a marketing mouthpiece for a corporate sponsor. Sorry
