Silage done the Old School way - double chop direct cut harvester and some classic Massey Ferguson tractors 🚜🌱 One for all you Grassmen to watch and enjoy 😍🐄🐮
Unfortunately that's impossible....I did on purpose put the sound of the tractors in a couple of places so people would hear but actually look at the video again and think what you would be hearing this time! Cameras are switching constantly so you wouldn't be hearing beautiful tractor sounds but the buzzing of a drone, into the sound of the chase car into the random chat in a barn, it would actually be a horrible experience to watch 🤷♂️
Just like my old Britains farm toys as a kid. Much as I love big machines (and I'm not a farmer or anything, I just live in a rural area), it is cool to see these classics still putting in a shift. Once covid is no longer a thing I think a trip over to see my sister and then a road trip up top is in order around cutting time to see if I can spot these in action!
Brilliant video There was nothing wrong with old school silage Neighbour's helping out neighbour's i did it for years with my neighbour cutting with a tarrup double chop Always cut it dry class video guys Don't stop the operation no matter what TEAGASC SAY
Dont know how many times I have seen this video over and over again on facebook and now on youtube. I absolute love this video, the camera angles and music are perfect! Hope you get to catch more of these guys at it this year, or someone else doing silage the proper way!
Great video! The 135 has a special place in the hearts of Irish country people. They were and still are an unreal workhorse for their size! You really felt at one with the tractor when you drove one of those. Happy memories of driving one as a kid. I like your filmography and the sound track but as someone who just loves the 135, l would love to see you make another "pure sound" version by just stripping away the music track, might not be easy now that you have it produced. Hopefully you saved a version before you produced.
@@crazystevie l understand. It's an unreal video don't get me wrong. Really struck a chord with me. Hairs on the back of my neck watching it. I suppose everyone loves the tractors of their youth.
Lovely video and machinery. Great to see the three 135s working and especially that Fraser 4.5T wooden dropside silage trailer. Used to own one just like it. Just subscribed.
This reminds me of the silage at my neighbours which is done with a 390t, 188, two 10 x 6 trailers , taarup harvester and a digger. Cant wait for silage 2021
@@bensteward9320 Nah just what ya did back then , not like all the BS today. Was 11yrs old and steering a D series ford around the farm also, old man in passenger seat tho.
I used to buckrake with David Brown 996 2 wheel drive-was ment to be 60 hp but 20 was dead !!!!I would never want to go back to those day of clutch knee then we got an international hybro 84 4wd such luxury
Have watched piles of farming UA-cam videos and I have to say this is very professional and well thought out, may I asked what part of NI the was filmed in?
Thank you...I come from a background of filming my own action sports so approach things maybe a bit differently to most. It's shot in an area called Vinecash in Co. Armagh 😊
@@crazystevie, did a bit of digging, found it’s just outside Portadown I think. My granda had a farm in Craigavon but when then started building Craigavon the farm was taken away from his family. We have just finished restoring his fordson super Dexter so it was nice to see this video, I have sent it on to him!
@@lukenicholl7746 yep correct in the final shot you are seeing Long Meadow Cider and then the end of the housing coming out the Loughgall Road from Portadown
I used to live not far from rothienorman where fraser trailers were made . The factory long gone nowadays its a housing estate and a new villiage square with shops etc the fraser family still have members of their family in the village . .
Our MF135's look like something out of a Mad Max movie. Quality machines though. Funnily enough I feel a little glimmer of sadness when I see an old tractor restored, maybe I like the rust and baron look a little too much :p
I have watched this about 20 times if I ever get the chance it will be my grandas 165 that I'll do up on a tarrup single chop with a 135 drawing to the pit
This was filmed near Portadown on the Loughgall Road. I wonder why the pit man can't use the push off buckrake to his advantage instead of using the " longtail buckracke " 🤭
Rematch it and have a think 🤔 imagine no music.....I have the note of the 135s in twice but what you would actually hear is the sharp whine of a drone into my chase car infront of the tractor into random chat in a barn!!! 😆 all randomly changing....would completely ruin the video. The way its edited it simply has to have music 🎶
@@hughM9 yea no problem...I understand its nice to hear the tractors too that's why I blended in a couple of times but yep unfortunately overall with cameras switching so much it would be horrible without music. Might do a bonus feature with original audio soon
@@crazystevie The sound of the job being done would out do any music. I farmed for thirty years and my first tractor was a 10 year old 8 speed 135 used with a 5 disc Kuhn. There ability to guts out heavy work, especially PTO was incredable. I also later on had a 185 and 4wd 390. At the farm sale the 40 year old sold for 3 times what i paid for it but it was in good order.
🤣🤣🤣 I don't remember asking, but anyway the person that asked me to shoot it wanted music so it was edited to music 🤷♂️ unless you wanted to hear the sound of the drone, the chase car, the chat in the barn too?? I'm sure if you rewatch with that in mind you'll understand why it has music 😉
🤣🤣🤣 no you wouldn't....see my replies below. You would have preferred the whine of a drone, noise inside a car and random chat in a barn? Would have had to edit completely different and video wouldn't look anything like this
Brings back memories from the mid 70's drawing silage with a Ford 4000 with very little brakes. Scary as hell but way better than being in school lol.
Haha class....just stand on them harder 🤣
That was a memory from my past cutting green oats with a Wilder single chop and MF35 happy days .
Hard to beat 💓 🚜 🌾
There is. No. Place. Like. Home.. nice video.thanks
you're welcome 🙂
it would be nicer to hear the sound of the tractors and machinery rather than all that music.
Unfortunately that's impossible....I did on purpose put the sound of the tractors in a couple of places so people would hear but actually look at the video again and think what you would be hearing this time! Cameras are switching constantly so you wouldn't be hearing beautiful tractor sounds but the buzzing of a drone, into the sound of the chase car into the random chat in a barn, it would actually be a horrible experience to watch 🤷♂️

Great to see how the silage was cut back in the past.👍 Very tidy equipment too.👍
Done a lot of that as a 20 odd year old back in the 80s.... loved it all!
Class!!! Old school getting the job done!!!
Dont know how many times I have seen this video over and over again on facebook and now on youtube. I absolute love this video, the camera angles and music are perfect!
Hope you get to catch more of these guys at it this year, or someone else doing silage the proper way!
Thank you so much 😊 appreciate the kind words 🙏
Loved of joined in. I got a 1973 international harvester 444 45hp I use it as my modern day tractor. Brilliant video!
Thank you....fantastic to hear 👌🏻 hard to beat

Everything's saved but would have to be a different video as there are plenty of drone shots, car shots and random barn chat in this 😀

@@philipoconnor2236 absolutely and I understand....that's why I popped in sound mix at a couple of spots. Yea I grew up on a 135 👌
Love the video,had one when I was a kid ,had a lover for multi on it ,put fords to shame,old timers rock! ,,
Brilliant video the old school 💯 can't beat it 👍
Absolutely agree 👍
Class video, brings back a lot of memories seeing how it was done years ago, where did them years go,
The Massey Ferguson still working hard 😁
Can't beat a wan three five 😆
lovey job lads... big Mal.
This video is fantastic, music is so uplifting
Lovely stuff!...I wouldn't mind hearing the note of the 135 pulling
Might do a wee bonus video for that
Loving the old school good tune too
Good man 😃 one or two hating the music 🎶 🤣
@@crazystevie there will always be haters who cares... ☝🏼🙏🏼
@@miteam1035 absolutely 💯👌
Class video lads
Nice one lads, all you need is the weather for it.
True and that day was a scorcher 👌 🌞
I love the video and I'm into old vintage tractors I have a 1948 tvo ferguson te20 and a 265 massey ferguson
Fantastic 👌 and in cracking condition no doubt 👏
Lovely video and machinery. Great to see the three 135s working and especially that Fraser 4.5T wooden dropside silage trailer. Used to own one just like it. Just subscribed.
Thank you 😊 not sure how many farming videos I can promise you but I'll maybe do a bonus to this one
Just as I remember making silage !!
The good old days 👌
Wholesome. Love it.
This looks great! I'd love to volunteer to work on a farm on my off days but I don't think any farms in County Down would do it.
Would do silage? Or hire someone for general farm work
Brilliant video proper reliable machinery with proper reliable drivers which either of can't be got now
🤣🤣 so true, good old time skills 👌
This is the good days💪💪
This reminds me of the silage at my neighbours which is done with a 390t, 188, two 10 x 6 trailers , taarup harvester and a digger. Cant wait for silage 2021
What ya use the digger for?
Putting up the pit
video is a credit to you! Thanks for sharing it from Galway
Thank you 😊 I've been down there a few times for the jiving championships 🕺💃
What a brilliant video what a pleasure to watch
Glad you enjoyed 😁🌾
Very cool and the guys look like they really enjoyed it 👍
Oh yea they do it this way every year 🙂 would be hard not to smile with that feed provided too 😅
I noticed that alright ,behind every good man 😅
@@thomassmyth1725 haha never a truer word spoken 👏 even our mums 👌
The 690 driver would have a lot of experience just like me dad's uncle who's 79 and still draws the silage
Great Video.. 😍 Shared in cavan. Keep it up

Lovely Massy 135!!
Proudly owned and maintained by Philip Murdock 👌

Fabulous video, fabulous silage outfit and cheap top quality winter feed into the bargain. What tractor drives the double chop?
Brilliant video
Mint ol 135, learnt to drive one when i was 6yrs old back in mid '70's
you had some reckless parents
@@bensteward9320 Nah just what ya did back then , not like all the BS today. Was 11yrs old and steering a D series ford around the farm also, old man in passenger seat tho.
@@mikepapa3196 man wish we could go back then, i study crop tech and agriculture life stock so I'm usually driving i just wished i had me experience

Cheers 😊
Memories 👌
Brilliant video is the Massey in the silage pit a 135

I used to buckrake with David Brown 996 2 wheel drive-was ment to be 60 hp but 20 was dead !!!!I would never want to go back to those day of clutch knee then we got an international hybro 84 4wd such luxury
beats working in a office hands down , trust me :)
Great video...
Very good and well made video!
Appreciate that - thank you 😊
Reminds me of yesrs ago we cur with double chop and 3 MF 165 's
Love to see it

@@lukenicholl7746 was his farm on the flood plains? Remember learning about that in school. Class you still have the old tractor 👌
Good old days
Awesome video 😊👌
Thank you 😊
The boy on the buck rake need some lessons. Push the load off as you are going back. Don’t plunk it in a lump, but dribble if off as you go back.
I used to live not far from rothienorman where fraser trailers were made . The factory long gone nowadays its a housing estate and a new villiage square with shops etc the fraser family still have members of their family in the village . .
Oh wow that's class! It's always a shame to see a bit of history like that go though 😕
BIG WORK THAT'S HOW
I have the same cab on my 135 got it restored 8 years ago
Our MF135's look like something out of a Mad Max movie. Quality machines though. Funnily enough I feel a little glimmer of sadness when I see an old tractor restored, maybe I like the rust and baron look a little too much :p
Nice massey
God video 👍
what's the name of the song I have a Massey Ferguson 135 myself 1974 love em great little tractor
Wildflowers - Here I Go (Its in the description) - yea hard to beat
@@crazystevie thanks for that
Yer man on the pike was busy
I don't know how he stuck it....was near 30 degrees that day....I was suffering filming let alone wearing overalls 🤣
Good 135 or165 it’s in good shape
I have watched this about 20 times if I ever get the chance it will be my grandas 165 that I'll do up on a tarrup single chop with a 135 drawing to the pit
Class 😄😄 give me a shout if it happens
This was filmed near Portadown on the Loughgall Road. I wonder why the pit man can't use the push off buckrake to his advantage instead of using the " longtail buckracke " 🤭
class
Thanks.
135 on a buckrake is a weapon not many are aware of.
Not these days anyway 😂
Class bitta kit being used
Hard to beat an old school Massey 👌 🥳
It’s nicely filmed but what’s with the music? I wanted to listen to the sweet note of those wee 135s as they did their work.
Rematch it and have a think 🤔 imagine no music.....I have the note of the 135s in twice but what you would actually hear is the sharp whine of a drone into my chase car infront of the tractor into random chat in a barn!!! 😆 all randomly changing....would completely ruin the video.

Hi there - its a 690
Thanks, I was a bit curious
Thats an early 135 with the rev counter in the center of the dash at 3:40
Yea shes a 1964 model....One of the 1st with red centres in the wheels and alloy head light surrounds - 57 yr old 🥴
@@crazystevie Brilliant, thanks for the info on the 135, also its a brilliant video you have put together, well done.
Corr you haven’t got a job going have you! Iam driving the latest 250hp John Deere tractor and I so wish I could swap.
😂😂 no need for that air con just take the doors off haha
Probably still at it
🤣🤣🤣 Still at the feeding maybe 🤔haha
Great film , old school , mf 135 !
Hard to beat 👌
Today I use a my fe35 for little jobs , and enjoy it , simple and effective , always wanted a 135 ,
@@ianholmes1468 I grew up driving our 135 ....like you say so handy for so many jobs...loved scraping out on it 💩
MF 135 what HP?
45.5 hp some say 45 some 46 😂
Are there more farming vids to come? If so I will drop a sub
Yep, will be a wide range of videos but def some more farming 👌
I want to hear the tractor engine not music
🤣🤣🤣 I don't remember asking, but anyway the person that asked me to shoot it wanted music so it was edited to music 🤷♂️ unless you wanted to hear the sound of the drone, the chase car, the chat in the barn too?? I'm sure if you rewatch with that in mind you'll understand why it has music 😉
