That's one of the most relaxed I've seen you in a video for ages Tom. You don't have to worry about your dad imparting his wisdom - I love hearing him and I'm sure others do too. He's a fountain of farming knowledge! I could listen to him for hours and learn so much.
seeing Anna and Katie, and even old Tom's enthusiasm for things I have done since I was 5 yro, gives me new confidence in the future. If you ain't having you ain't doing it right.........even "Ginger Guy " is always stoked for farmin!!!!!!
MDE is phenomenal, they are the only ones we will go to for any of our equipment, been using them from they first started and are the most down to earth and an accommodating bunch of lads.
Crackin video as usual,Tom. Loved listen to The Ginger Warrior. He’s such a wealth of information. It was really impressive to see how well the MDE Rhino worked. Make a deal on it indeed. It’ll pay for itself in no time.
When we pack we always raise the tire pressures to 30 psi. Figured if the tires being that high in the field make compaction it should also make compaction in the clamp. Also if you keep running the rhino make sure your lift links are in the slotted position so the rhino can rock into any holes and not float over them.
We also got a roller for the clamp. Roller comes in with 2300 kgs and 1700 liters of water can be added so 4 tons on the roller. 1,5 ton Weight for the tractor so it can handle it and the tractor itself comes to around 12 ton. Absolute massive game changer as you can compact sooo fast and the clamp is nice and even as we drive over the clamp with the forage wagon
Amazing how far you've come Tom. i remember when the warrior (great to see him back in action )was rolling the clamp on the scraper tractor with the exhaust taken off because he was tight under your old shed roof, what you call the "showroom " now i think. Well done, the power of hard work and the effort you put into sharing your farm life on youtube. Bravo 👍
Never, ever stop the Ginger Warrior from telling you and us how it is = Learning Environment. Listen and Learn Tom: totally utilizing Andrew's Knowledge & Experience; while you have the Opportunity as when he passes, you'll miss his comments and regret you didn't ask more Questions. Know I do! Communication is paramount and you will do the same with Harvey if he decides to become a Farmer. Good Job!
71st! Happy pre-HUMPDAY Tom,Luke, Hiedie, Anna,Hanna and the ginger warrior with a mustache, along with all the farm help making this farm a going concern. Roger in Pierre South Dakota USA
Thank you for the Tuesday video. As always educational. Great to see you. Massive team out there doing the work sharing the load. The ginger warrior always are great leader and wise elder showing us young people how it’s done. Everyone have a great week be well be you.
I remember back when your the Ginger Guy mentioned that the farm came first and UA-cam second and it was funny seeing him tell the crew to hold up so you can film something! Of course that may still happen, but it was funny to see.
o Tom you were getting mightily close to them in the clamp... danger doesn't take a day off.. even tho you work with them all the time and you may trust them all it takes is a stumble in the grass... Please be careful x
Thank you for the education today. I didnt know how silage was made, having only made hay before (in the dry south east). This is a really interesting and informative video. Thank you for making it.
Mistake clamping the silage over the wall. As the silage settles, it will drop either side of the wall but not over it. You will get a load of waste around the top of the wall. Been there and got the badge !
Funny you should say that, I was thinking it would be a problem when you start using it, as will let air in the other clamp. Never thought about it settling as well
@@pick10tennisjacquelinebogg23better having two narrow clamps than 1 big wide one. You work through a narrow clamp quicker, so the silage face has less time to spoil with air getting in to it. A wide clamp the silage face is open to the air longer and you will get much more waste
Don't forget to let the water out of the roller for the winter a lot better to use than rail wheels after the maze silage. Where are going to make the clamp this Year.
Interesting topic, top bit of kit, some high jinks from the team and wise knowledge from TGW (great to see him up and about). All the ingredients of a classic TP vid. All it needed was a manhole cover and a comment about drains....
Great vid tom. Haha was surprised the mighty ginge let you have a go at compacting was almost a passing of the torch moment 🤣 Hope everyone at team Pemberton are well, all the best guys and gals.
Tom, put a gallon of antifreeze into the MDE compactor, that will stop corrosion starting inside plus stop it freezing in winter etc. Great job for packing the silage pit, MDE surely give you "mate's rates" with the free advertising you're giving them now😂😂
your dad knows his stuff tom!, but these pieces of equipment have been designed for a reason!! one of your best videos in a while tom. brilliant stuff. also limp bizkit "rollin" came on at the wrong part of the video
I'm sure they'll do a deal on that roller, looks like a brilliant bit of kit. Must admit when you were on top of the grass I was ducking my head, especially when you were near the roof joists. 😂👍
Hey Tom I was wondering since its a family farm would your Mum do a video on any family cooking videos involving fresh from the cow recipes? Would be nice to see that side of living on the farm.😊
Maybe something to consider. Put the roller on the front. That way you can lift the tractor up from the ground, so more weight on the roller. You can't steer anymore though....😅
When you do eventually fill it with water, consider adding coolant as it contains antifreeze, but also corrosion inhibitor, so you can leave the water in without worry. Might cost a bit, but worth the investment.
Great video that roller looks like a must buy surely Its done a fantastic job of the clamp Seems to be really mixed with grass growth this year Richard Cornock had a record amount of silage and had to bale a load
Great video again Tom. Any chance you could do a video on the science behind a silage clamp? Like the anaerobic process and what actually happens to the grass in a clamp.
Great video I do love all your silage videos I do watch all your other videos that McFarland wagon that dropped of the roller his exaust spits a lot of black smoke aka reek they do have some tidy wagon I am a truck enthusiast but my pal farms so I know a lot about it
Your videos are usually very short and it won't hurt if your Dad talks a minute or 2 over what you want. Most of all you know of farming you've learned from him, so we don't mind if you are over a few minutes because he's imparting his wisdom!!
Nice when you can get the new kit on UA-cam demo. That compactor looks the business as has a low surface area ( unlike what you dad was saying about a normal roller)
Its winter here in New Zealand, our four wheeler had a wheel fall off, husband wasn't driving very fast, on a gentle slope, then yesterday a neighbour was carting balage up the road when the front wheel of the tractor fell off, both broken axles. The tractor managed to get onto the grass verge.
how times have changed back in the mid 70s we just cut the grass left it maybe for a day rowed it up with a small hay turner loaded by pitch fork on to a trailer un loaded it the same way and walked up and down on it to compact it
Hello Tom, great videos thank you for your work. Could you make a video about what you would do differently with your milking parlor if you were to build it again today
The roll needs a sliding mechanism on the A frame to move left and right, this will allow the roll to get closer to the panel and keep tractor away from the edge
So I watch my vids at 2X speed. what I noticed was when the loader was pushing up into the clamp and driving over the grass because I watching it at two times speed you can actually see the grass bounce back to some of its original form. but with that rhino on the back you don't see hardly any bounce back. Id say thats a pretty good sign that that packer sure does a helluva job.
Tom will you please do a voice over when explaining operations such as sileage operation on today's video. Its impossible to understand what you are saying when you are following so closely to the machinery. As always its enjoyable to understand what's going on.
Recently watched some vids by BaldyFarmer - had sone interesting posts on their fertiliser options and a special little bit of kit to apply various things to their grass. Might be worth a look.
Great video. I wld nvr have thought that "silage was made in the clamp." Wld def'ly thought it was made prior to hauling to the clamp. Two questions: 1) isn't it cheaper to bld closed sides to clamp vs sheet up yr after yr? 2) Have u heard of horses lungs being full of dust from hay? Even thoough it's silage and not hay, wonder if, right after u put silage down to feed cattle, you went back with a light mist sprayer to make silage wetter, wld there be any advantage? More like grass (mimick nature)? Impact time chewing cud? Reduce time pushing up silage? Etc...
Nice video of silage Tom we don't chop our own silage at my bosses 2 dairy farms we custom hire like you do our silage bunks don't have a roof over them
Open up your left hand side clamp , get rid asap to all the cows and beef stock and then use that for the maize clamp , bring the cows in super early but let them out if they want until mid sep , the grazing grass is too bad for them
Question apart from the weight of grass/machinery would the “acid juice” attack wall/mortar in the middle? Good to see clamp filled, extra hands helping/hindering Luke! Glad you showed the other side of making silage, thoughts on giving ginger warrior a Microphone then again haha, great blog,
What would happen if you used a car crusher and make square bales of grass? You see it with Aluminium cans too.. Now that would make a good Sunday video!
Just did a search and there is mobile hire ones on google.. would need it to be very clean and new to use the bales though. There is one other side of Sheffield near Retford
Is it a good idea to put scrupulous g under the clamp to catch & drain the grass juices into the storage muck tank. Then all that nutrients plus will get spread back on the field Less watery mess in front of clamp and will improve the soil . Well done I like how you explain everything and why you do things. Hello from Adelaide South Australia
If you end up buying one, I'd fill it with waste oil just because you don't have to worry about rust or forst cracking if you forget to empty before winter
Oure contractor doesnt put water in the roller but he puts melases (feeding sirop) in it so when it leaks its putting some more tast in the feed and doesnt make it wet 2 birds 1 stone kinda story

Yes this 👌I love listening to him he’s very knowledgeable ❤
I love listening to your dad, with his enthusiasm and passion. I could listen to him all day.
Great to see the girls being so happy working.
Love your dad,he’s got the kinda voice i could listen to all day long 😊

I'm so happy to see grandpa ginger so hail and hearty. I'm so proud of your father and you. Working together for future generations.
The timelapse is so satisfying, watching the grass bounce up and down as you compact it
MDE is phenomenal, they are the only ones we will go to for any of our equipment, been using them from they first started and are the most down to earth and an accommodating bunch of lads.

Interesting watching the time lapse where the grass is compressed then springs back.
Nice to hear you listening to some real music for a change.
Keep rollin' rollin' rollin'! 😄

It's pretty neat how you can see the grass compress and swell in the time lapse of your clamp being rolled (@20:30).
Whatever Katie and Anna are on, you need to bottle it and sell it in the farm shop.... 😉
ginger guy with the mustache puttin in the work, love it.
I have really missed the Ginger Guy, Glad to see him.
Its a pity he mumbles when talking :(
He was concentrating!
We love Andrew Pemberton Esq, the Ginger Nija.😊

Hey there, samll tip maybe try using plastic on the sidewalls of your clamp. I do it in germany on my farm and it reduces spoilage a lot

Thank you for the education today. I didnt know how silage was made, having only made hay before (in the dry south east). This is a really interesting and informative video. Thank you for making it.
That’s a great implement to roll the silo.
One of the easiest ways for new viewers to understand what making silage really is: making "grass pickles"
Good man Tom getting the mayo flag on the jcb
Mistake clamping the silage over the wall. As the silage settles, it will drop either side of the wall but not over it. You will get a load of waste around the top of the wall. Been there and got the badge !
in a way but... where else do you put the grass?
Funny you should say that, I was thinking it would be a problem when you start using it, as will let air in the other clamp. Never thought about it settling as well
I wondered if it wld put pressure unevenly on wall, making it unstable. But what's the wall needed for in first place?

It certainly looks good.
Keep em coming Thomas. I dont think I have missed a single upload as of yet....yh boiiiii. big loves to all at The Pembertons farm
Looking good 👍

That compactor looks cool loving the videos
you should do a time lapse of rolling the clamp so you can see how much it actually compacts it might be a cool idea for you tom
Hey Tom
I was wondering since its a family farm would your Mum do a video on any family cooking videos involving fresh from the cow recipes?
Would be nice to see that side of living on the farm.😊
I just look at your face when you're is talking , one look is worth a thousand words. Great video as usual keep up the good work Rich W Ely UK 🇬🇧 👍
Maybe something to consider. Put the roller on the front. That way you can lift the tractor up from the ground, so more weight on the roller. You can't steer anymore though....😅
Better still put a Second roller on the front
When you do eventually fill it with water, consider adding coolant as it contains antifreeze, but also corrosion inhibitor, so you can leave the water in without worry. Might cost a bit, but worth the investment.
Naaah, use vodka or moonshine 😂👍
The MDE Rhino really works
Team work makes the dream work 👌🏼💪🏼🤙🏼👍🏼🌟
Great video that roller looks like a must buy surely
Its done a fantastic job of the clamp

20 mins 2 seconds limp bizkit rollin playing on the radio when you where about to do some rolling 😂.
Didn't have Tom pegged as a Limp Bizkit fan so assumed it was a Rollin joke 😂
Use the old nash with narrow tyres and a weight on the back for close to the walls

I don’t use additive myself. I was always told additive will make good silage better but not bad silage good.

How are you keeping everything separate from the two enterprises?
If you end up buying one, I'd fill it with waste oil just because you don't have to worry about rust or forst cracking if you forget to empty before winter
oil is less heavy than water. Perhaps a calcium brine would be best, heavier than water. Rust will not form inside of oxygen (air) is excluded
