Great video Tom it looks like you had a great crop of grass and great drone footage and a good shot with the drone above the red kite and keep up with the great videos 👍👍
Hi folks , Thank you Tom 🎉 you did it again great to see the older tractors are still up there at a fraction of the price still doing the job . Used to sit on a steerage loe doing kale and driver used to doze off . Great lovely 👌 great music 🎶 a credit to you Tom 🎉
The previous videos explained the steps a bit more, but in short. 1. The grass is mown. These mowers have a conditioner fitted that squashes the grass so it dries out quicker and in this case seems to guide it somewhat into rows (our mower doesn't have a conditioner and tends to spread it out fairly randomly). 2. The grass should ideally be at a consistent moisture level and usually needs to be dried out a little, so is "tedded" and turned over / spread out so the bottom layers can dry out. 3. When the moisture is right and ready to bale (more critical for hay than silage I think), it is raked into windrows for baling. There is quite often a nervous wait / gamble for when to cut for hay as the crop needs to be at the correct stage and there needs to be no or minimal rain from the time it is cut to when it is baled for best quality and correct moisture levels when baling.
Really enjoy your videos. Interesting for non farmers to see how much goes into what some take for granted. Loads of time, money and hassle to produce food. Would be interesting to hear how much stuff you produce on the farm and what it takes in man power, fuel and time to do. 👍
I could use a Fendt Rotana 130 to pick up dog hair from the living room carpet ! 😊 Excellent video and drone work again and you have an enviable selection of toys to play with. Silage looks good - will you go for a second cut ?
Now that's one serious bailing operation being filmed with some tillage at the end. Millions of pounds/money's worth of some very cool equipment, (and some older workhorses), being showcased with an extremely nice shot of a hunting hawk in the middle. Things have changed so much from my day when we were paid from $0.05 to $0.10 cents a bail to help farmers bring in the their hay and straw harvests with the old square bails weighing between 80 and 120lbs depending on moisture for the hay and 40 to 75lbs for the straw. Either on the trailer being pulled thru the field to pick them and stack them following the bailer or working in the loft of the barn to unload and stack. Hot, hard work but it was good pay back then and many of us started doing it at age 12 or so as soon as we could lift and move them by ourselves to earn a bit of summer money. We'd work from just before dawn arriving at the fields and as soon as the dew lifted get to work until sundown or job done. A lot of us saved that money to buy and refurbish our first cars that we'd find and buy at around age 15. So we could have them ready for that sweet 16 and our licenses, our independence so to speak. No longer being stuck with just cobbled together bicycles we'd buy or trade for and do the best we could to keep them working. Once those first cars were ready we could be driving around in vehicles we bought and earned for ourselves. That is if we didn't have parents able to do all that for us. I think doing it ourselves was a definite step toward becoming adults and earning our own way. Thanks for the video and I thought why not share some of my own past as it brought up many hot, sweaty, hard working but cherished memories with those watching. Take care and God Bless...
Bit of a boring question, Tom, but do you hire most of this equipment in to save on maintenance and maximise profit or buy it as a long-term investment? How long would it take for you to make that long-term investment profitable?
Wow that’s a lot silage Mr Tom! Do you sell it or do you have your own head of cattle? If so, how much livestock do you have? I’m a geek for facts and figures 😊 I loved that you managed to get some good footage of the birds of prey, were they red kite?
Great video Tom , really enjoyed it , fantastic drone work . That fendt bailer and wrapper is am amazing bit of kit but my favorite was the one that turns the hay over to dry , no idea what it's called but it was a joy to watch , it made the hay look like water being splashed up , amazing
Just goes to show don’t be seduced by the new kit that massy is doing the same job as that brand new fendt and at a fraction of the price and you have a bigger smile on your face driving the older one, I’m telling you tractors are like women the older they are, the better experience you have and they put a smile on your face.
Tom Lamb, he’s a farmer! And a Fent demo driver!! When will the list end. Really enjoying the content at the minute Tom, hope you’re having fun doing it too!!!
Loved the shadow of the red kite slowly hovering over the action..I'm amazed the drone didn't put the kite off...
Another fantastic video Tom thanks for sharing 😊
Another epic ASMR posting, enjoyed every miniute of it. Thanks Tom....
Glad you enjoyed it
Another Fantastic Tom Lamb production, even the Red Kite show up again.
Great video Tom it looks like you had a great crop of grass and great drone footage and a good shot with the drone above the red kite and keep up with the great videos 👍👍
Love the drone work Tom.
You’re getting good at this drone lark
Trying to
The old Massey still showing those new young wipper snappers how it's done😁. Farming is a hard job but you do have some cool kit to play with
That’s a fine outfit you have there Tom. My local farmers are doing the same, it’s all go. Thanks. All the best.
Thanks
Amazing drone footage!🥰
I love this job 🚜❤
Great vid. Anyone know what the JD was doing at the end? I didn't recognise the implement or the crop?
Sugar beet
проклейку(сок молодого кобачка) на полотна в рулоне(корм, коробки и др.....
Tom, how does the bailer operator know when the plastic wrap and mesh wraps need changing?
It tells you in the cab
Have you been taking notes in agricultural drone work from George Saunders, yours are very professional results, great videos 👍👍
Are they better videos than his ?
@@Tomlamb980 different 😁
Was that Red Kite eyeing up the drone as a snack?
Yes
How much did you have to pay Ridley Scott to direct this one?
Is it that good
Oooooh! Spinny things and roly things and spitty outy things! Epic!
Yes we like things
Twirly things too
TOM LAMB Stepping the game up in 2024 oh yeah baby. Cracking Vid and so nice to see your channel grow lad.
Thanks for the support
*cool video*
*rip to the person caught at **05:10** tho*
Fantastic, Tom! Loved the red kite shenanigans! 😎👍

Great lovely 👌 great music 🎶 a credit to you Tom 🎉
Thanks 👍
Great video yet again Tom. You’re getting good at this filming and drone stuff. Another string to the bow 😂
Can someone explain the purpose of having the grass gathered into lines then spread back out?
Mostly to waste time and use more fuel

@@jg374 ah thx for the explanation!
@@Tomlamb980 😂
Great
Great kit TOM BUT What about the fantastic silage crop ❤❤
What about it?
You've got some serious grass 😅
Superb video, some great shots and a cracking crop there, good stuff 👍

Nice vid Tom, What was the John Deere doing at the end?
Sugar beet hoeing
Tedder was utter perfection, one of my favourite jobs, along with all the other ones
You need to get more cattle to eat all that silage Tom. And very economically made thanks to Fendt !
You got that right!
Watching this before the new Furze vid. Keep up the good work Tom your videos are ace.
Make sure you put a comment on his telling him that
The size of that dump truck is just unreal.
Weeding that Beet with the old Deere, with no guidance requires a steady hand and lots of concentration!
Oh and did you ever hear of the roller bailer was adjustable like the belt one you hav?

I own most of it they do construction work as well to help pay for it
2:22 90's massey having to slow down for a brand new Fendt 😁😁
Little Massey on the rake causing the Fendt AB lines to need nudging 😂
When I’m flying the drone and driving as well
@@Tomlamb980 👌
Simply sublime. Nice to see the Red Kite. More of the same please.
Excellent Tom, relaxing to watch, your videos get more professional with each one, like your choice of music too.
Many thanks!
Wot a great video
Nicely done again Tom. You're getting a dab hand at the drone footage ❤
Ireland would be proud of the fields of grass 🫡 awesome view of the Fendt & Massey rakes 🫶🏼
Thanks
Love the Red kite filming, oh and the farming bit😂
it always amazes me how efficient farming has become.
So cool to see someone recreate of Farm sim is real life!
Goog to see, harvesting all in sequence and getting the best results from the equipment, pleasure to watch and learn. Good drone shots to, very good 👍
Thanks 👍
Excellent aerial shots and production work Tom, your channel keeps getting better every week mate. Keep em coming 👍
Thanks, will do!
Hey Tom how big is that grass field? Do you end up needing all of it or share/sell it to other farms?
We usually use it all
That was a really well put together video nice one Tom
Tom, a simply job but with the music made is sound exciting and thrilling . Where do get that music from ?. A great vid . Lovin all of them 👍👍👏👏👏
I just found it online
Do you get any problems with the kites attacking the drone Tom
Yes
Fantastic, Tom! Loved the red kite shenanigans!
Many thanks!
👏👏👏👏👍👍
Great! Can i know the silage film spec? thick, width, length, and manufacturer?
@@minseokkim6144 silotight 1200
I simply can’t believe that with such an expensive baler you still have to stop to eject the bale
@@RiceDriedger some you don’t

We will use about 120 head and yes red kite
The video is really interesting, the machines work very efficiently.
Great video Tom , really enjoyed it , fantastic drone work . That fendt bailer and wrapper is am amazing bit of kit but my favorite was the one that turns the hay over to dry , no idea what it's called but it was a joy to watch , it made the hay look like water being splashed up , amazing
It's called a tedder, sometimes known as a scaler.
It’s called a teader
Looks like a good crop you had there . Was there many bales to the ac on it
Loads we are still collecting them
Red Kite shadow at 1:49. Was that CGI? 😀
No
@Tomlamb980 yes beautiful birds I have quite a few around my way ,good to see them gradually building populations
The yield in that field is totally off the charts😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
Yer it was good
Hi Tom some very nice machinery are you thinking of getting some new stuff are you a messy man👍
Only Massey
what a great scene
How many bales will those two rolls of plastic wrap
I think about 60
A great video young man!
Thank you kindly!
Have the Kites attacked your drone yet Tom
Yes
Great machines.
Здравствуйте, Мужики так держать 💪💪💪.
Poor little deer kid 5:10
Tom is great, you are a very nice farmer. He does this job in our country, in Turkey. It's perfect. Don't leave him alone.
🤔 Would a big silage pit not be cheaper than all that bale plastic and the cost of handling those bales?
Fendt pay for it all
Mesmerizing!!
Great footage and music way to go boy.
Thanks 👍
Epic music!!!

Wow, this video looks so professional. The music tops it off. I could watch these all day long.
Thanks
To think I do it all off an iPhone
Well that was like a polished professional promotional video. You should be proud.
Tom Lamb, #1 🧑🌾
Drone footage from above of Spiny Things 👍
Epic! and loved the Red Kites. Often watch this mechanical ballet from our house but the drone footage brings a whole new dimension.
Really interesting nice shots 🇬🇧👍
Especially at 3:47!
These rc tractors are starting to look so real
It’s good fun
That silage baler is really cool! The engineering behind that to ensure it works flawlessly whilst moving over uneven terrain must be crazy.
Nice, one of the most satisfying agriculture videos to watch for sure 🙂
😊😊❤
Which came worse, the drone, or the trailer?😅
It skimmed over the top of it
Tom Lamb, he’s a farmer! And a Fent demo driver!!
When will the list end.
Really enjoying the content at the minute Tom, hope you’re having fun doing it too!!!
Whats that tune Tom?
The first tune i mean, fine sir….im trying to find it on itunes 😄
What was the 3rd piece of music used pls.
What a beautiful sight. The English countryside is fantastic. Long may it continue. Well done Tom and all.
Many thanks!
love these drone shots tom
videos just getting better and betterer , keep up the good work tom, will be at 50k before you know it
Hope so!
More Tom on the farm great 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Class video and unreal tractors and machinery
