SCRAPYARD TOUR IN RURAL FRANCE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- In today's episode of farming life at La Forge, we are scanning our heifers to see if they are in calf, by scanning the heifers first we'll know if we have enough replacements so that if any cows are not in calf we can get rid of them. Then Dad and myself are off to buy Scrap! we drive 2.5 hours to a scrapyard to buy a burnt down muckspreader. Dad explains his plans for it and then we give you a tour of the scrapyard
New Subscriber from near Dead Horse Tank, Texas. A video like this has me moving to France. God bless lass.
Liking the wr shaw jacket.
never seen so many burned out equipment .Declan is in his element in that scrap yard!!!
Bitta aftersun on a buffing pad it’ll polish out🤣
wheat easy burn in machine heat
Thanks for the tag along.
Great to see you PD cows in the locking yokes. We used are Jourdain locking yokes for TB testing for the first time - brilliant. Will have to buy more as didn’t have enough for all of them - so put them through the crush. All clear thankfully for another 6 months. All the cows were in calf thankfully. New for us was vacinating for DVD and clostridial as a bit more protection.
I had to laugh when you told ‘dad’ not to scuff his feet - surprised you didn’t get a ‘dad’ quick answer back. Amazing scrapyard - I could do with a working back end for my Ford 7810, have lost 2nd and 4th gear - might be able to repair it via the stub axel.
Wish I could get a set of the double zip overalls here, unprinted, I have never worn overalls due to the single zips!!!! I would need Brunyee Salers printed on mine 🤣🤣🤣
A lovely Sunday Evening Video treat.
Stay safe and keep smiling.
Thanks 👍
All farmers are mad! Ha ha, nice one Declan. I know a fella that said farms were like open air lunatic asylums!!
Good video Laura, big scrapyard new merchandise looks good.
Thanks 👍
Very Nice to see You and your Parents do the Beef Farm work .I have had many years Blonde Aquitaine on the farm .Thanks for sharing .I am searching for a side plate for MF 3060 of 1986 .Also on the scrapyard .Greetings to you All
You could try them, they're called TMC beside the city Poitier
Those cattle are a credit to your mam and dad, Laura thanks for the upload and I will be getting one of those overalls haven't seen them here in Ireland.
Our pleasure!
They are now available on our website if you're still interested: www.farminglifeatlaforge.com
Your father thinks exactly the same as I do especially when I first started agriculture contracting 1980’s spending a small amount to save yourself thousands 🇬🇧🇮🇪.
Never seen so many Burt tractors combines balers Laura and Declan
Hello there ! 👋🏼 Would you like to give us this place’s address ? Thanks !
Good find on the spreader, may bow out a little under load but I doubt the frame is hurt.
Should be okay 👍
Big HELLO from all of us farmers in the USA
Good video Laura, that's a big scrapyard, Dad was like a pig in poo
Thanks for the video ! That muck spreader is a great project look forward on the videos on it please !
Thanks
Nice looking heifers Declan
Merch looks the buisiness nice!! Declan some man, more we watch more respect top man and great family operation . T and C
Much appreciated
How long have you been back in France?
About 6 weeks
Great video Laura. I'd say you could get a whole series out of that spreader. Your dad is a goodun to take it on. He deserves a new set of wheels and tyres sponsored at the very least. Look forward to seeing progress on it. Cheers
Thanks! yes there will be quite a few videos on it!
Dont know if the ring of teeth around the neck would suit the bossman, hat maybe😂😂
I'll have to get him to try it haha
Ya know if you took everything I have from 200 years and everything my cousin has from 200 years of family farming and ranching bet we got about that much crap laying around. Even the nicer big tractors John Deere sucks though sorry everybody else I’m even American International all the way!
burnt metal looses its integrity.
Ot sure does
Back in the early 1980’s I use to run my agricultural contracting with Le-boulch 12 ton wide spread muck spreaders pulled by Ford 7710 and loaded with matbro ram & teleram 40D which came from Matbro in Horley Surrey, Great videos of all the burnt out agricultural machinery and listening to the person with you explaining the burnt out spreader and his future plans, 🇬🇧🇮🇪.
That's a great looking setup in the shed. Do you have much trouble calving them? The exotics seem to have a reputation here in Ireland.
Not really, we calf them on the home farm
👍
Declan what is france like for buying a second-hand tractor? are prices less than ireland ..??
I think it's easier to get a classic tractor over here, finding them is the only thing
Fantasttic scrap yard Get that Big Ford Bought ;)
He doesn't need anymore Ford's for now 😂
@@FarmingLifeatLaForge But they dont make them any more go on you know he wants to
Good video cattle looking good. Can see your dad is happy at the scrappies.
Thanks 👍
I’d say if your dad won the lottery he would just keep farming away until it was all gone matter how many millions it was !!
There is tools hire what helps a lot at least most of the countries in Europe it's existing so it's cost cutting and helpful if people want to finish their projects
Thank you for another interesting, varied and enjoyable video. Sometime could you explain the 240 cow quota and how for a young person Ireland, Australia and france compare life wise and starting farming or even settling down. My son lives in Sydney both he and his wife have good jobs, but their costs with 2 children and morgage, in my view they would be better at home.
Th care
Great suggestion!
Great video as always. are there other smaller muck spreaders there.
10 cubic meter would be great.
Great video. Best of luck with the dung spreader refurbishment
Think the overalls with the cow logo look more professional than the ones with the tractor on them.
Do you work the farm full time or do you have a full time job elsewhere, and help out when you can ?
Thanks, they're my favourite ones too!
I am full time on the farm and also work for myself 🤷🙂
@@FarmingLifeatLaForge Hi - thanks very much for replying - I appreciate that you're a busy lady.
Good to have you back. 🙂👍
Welcome back a missing your farm in france. Sweden farmerguy.
2 ritsen in overall..?? Nog NOOIT gezien.
Ze zijn veel comfortabeler. Bij interesse beschikbaar op onze website
Small area lots of fire tractors can only mean one thing not going to say it
It's drought country. Lot's of fires in France in the summer
Dawno mnie tu nie było. Miło znów widzieć Twoj kanał 🙂
Świetnie, że wróciłeś. Mam nadzieję że ci się spodoba
@@FarmingLifeatLaForge 😀niesamowite móc rozmawiać z kimś z tak daleka 😃
We bought a 10 tonne Richard western muck spreader which needed refurbishing, we bought it for €3000 and it cost €4000 to refurbish but it was well worth it because it is as good as new now , other than Agriaffaires what other web sites have farm machinery for sale in France and are there monthly agricultural auctions in France ?
Leboncoin also sells machinery but agriafaires is better l. Not sure about auctions, I haven't really seen any
I really enjoy your video s and the scrapyards . I looking for a cap for a 7810. Could you give me the name of the scrap yard . I would be very thankful.
TMC beside the town Poitiers
That's why you look familiar there's a bunch of French families that live around me I'm like this woman like someone I would see in town
But we're not French..
Best of luck with everything on the farm there 👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Hey. Can you send me the name of the scrapyard or link. Great videos you are making
Sorry for the late reply. TMC near the town Poitier
What's the name of dismantler thanks
TMC beside the town Poitiers
you in Europe drive on the right side of the road which is the wrong side while we in South Africa drive on the left side which is the right side
Agree to disagree 🤷😂
What causes all the equipment fires here in NZ birds nests on the engine causes tractor fires but we dont baler fires
Mainly in the summer during harvest, if it is very dry and then get a rock spark off the machine
Calving 240 sucklers is no picnic, he really is mad😂😂😂😂
He sure is!
👏👍👍🇮🇪🇮🇪🙏🙏💗💗
How much is the boiler suits and do you do hats let me know please and keep up the good work Laura
Hi, Yes we do indeed. They are now available on our website if you're interested: www.farminglifeatlaforge.com
Looks like somebody has bought some work, it must have been cheap. 🍀
Must have been
Have they got DoneDeal in France
They have a version called Leboncoin
Great video Laura as always your dad will make a fine job of that muck spreader 💪👌
Thanks 👍
Great video Laura. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks so much! 😊
Great video Laura and Declan
Thank you! 😀
Stunning as always laura 😎😎
Thanks
Do you guys come back over to any shows in Ireland ?
I'd go to the ploughing match but it's the wrong time of year for dad with the start of calving. Usually they'd go to the royal Highland
Do you own all the farms
We own the home farm and rent the second farm 😊
what is the scrapyard called and whereabouts is it in france?
TMC near Poitier
Why no slurry in France?
Lots of cereals, lots of straw. Bedded sheds.
@@nigelmchugh5541 so like the olden days here? Fair enough, always thought the soil misses out from the lack of straw for worms to munch on
There's more slurry in the north of France, it's more cereal/ dairy country. It's all beef around us and it's all strawbed
Nice Gear . So much treasure at the scrap yard.
There sure is
What is the scrap yard called, and do they have a website ?
