That Albrach is some piece of kit...... A whole wood processing plant that can travel at 85kph, amazing. Glad that you're cutting at last & yields look good so far. ATB.
It's all go on the farm this week. That wood chipper is some beast of a machine and is very impressive to watch it working. Expensive too, I'll bet that it cost a fortune to get a fancy piece of kit like that. It seems like it was only a few weeks ago that the peas were being sown and the viners are harvesting them already. They are the first machines I have seen on tracks ! All the videos of viners working that I've watched before have been running on tyres. So I guess that peas viners on tracks were the next level of evolution for them too. Less compaction and less chance of getting stuck in soft ground. Also super to see the Claas getting started on the harvesting and to hear the yield is so good after all the bad weather earlier this year. The big bulk of straw is a bonus too as there will be a good ready market for it this year from what I've read and heard about the straw market. Another excellent video this week.
@JDautopower Just the thought of all that good straw going up in smoke in a power station would bring tears to the eyes of many livestock farmers in my area. There's already huge acreages straw used for covering carrots over winter up here, and that's making straw for the livestock farmers use scarce and expensive, too.
Nice clean stubble and straw will be very welcome for straw merchants Pea viners always a nice sight to see slowly going across a field and the size of back up crews amazing operation
That's a good yield for this year, what variety is it? Think the hybrid variety's are doing well. Best going steady so you dont chuck it out the back end
I could watch them chippers all day, fascinating machines, good to see you're on with the harvesting and good yields to 👍
The chipper is like a Swiss Army knife, does everything and folds away after. Thanks for posting.
It’s certainly an amazing bit of kit!……and costly lol.
Why is it so nice watching farming video when you farm yourself 😊
😂😂 I don’t know, but I enjoy watching them aswell 🤣
A lot of peas are grown around the Dundee area as we have a freezer processing plant here
That chipper is a big bit of kit! Impressive! Glad the barleys doing well. Great hands on video thanks
Thanks 😊
Interesting update. Nice to see the combine working.
Thanks, it’s always nice to start harvest.
Good video 👍 the chipper was an animal. Satisfying crutches.
It certainly made short work of that pile of wood!!!
That wood chippers unreal. Yield on wb touching 10 t ha.well done
Thank you 😊

Been a funny season, so we are glad to see reasonable yields. Just needs the weather to settle down now.

Thank you 😊 yes all the kit is getting bigger and more expensive as the years go by. All our straw is sold for going into the power stations

@@DonaldFraser-c9v I agree it’s criminal. Unfortunately it’s not my decision

All our straw sold to Northern Straw and is destined for power stations, about 3 big Heston bales/acre.
Yes I like to see the viners to.
I so look forward to Saturday for your videos, keep them coming, love this channel ❤
Thank you 😊
Great to see Harvest underway 👍
It is, seems to have been a long time coming.
Great to see some good yields are coming in, it seemed like a challenging winter with all of the rain,
Thanks, it’s certainly been a challenging growing season!
Top yield for the barley and really interesting.
Thanks.
Great to see you starting the 24 harvest. Stay safe.
Thanks, you too!
your doing better than most WITH THE BARLEY
Yes we are very pleased with it considering the season. On sand our Barley has done just under 2.5t/acre. Not bad for the land though.
Great video, with some very interesting content.
Thank you 😊
Good video again, what was your bushel weight out of interest ?
Thanks.
Thanks. Bushel weight was about 63. Variable depending wether we was on good or sand land.
800 horses needs a lot of diesel. A long way from net zero. Impressive kit though.
That's a good yield for this year, what variety is it? Think the hybrid variety's are doing well. Best going steady so you dont chuck it out the back end
It’s Tardis, good variety. Very surprised with the yields.
How many acres do you farm ?
About 2200 cropped
