  • The wait is over!
    We finally kick off the harvest season with a full force of four combine harvesters in the field, tackling the oil seed rape. It’s an all-systems-go moment, and we can’t wait to share the action with you!
    The weather has held off just enough for us to get started, though we’ll still need to use the dryers. We simply couldn’t wait any longer, as further delays would compress the rest of the season, impacting our overall schedule and yield. Watch as we navigate these challenges and make the most of our window of opportunity.
    Join us as we navigate the challenges and triumphs of harvesting, showcasing the hard work and dedication that goes into bringing in the crops. From the roar of the combines to the teamwork of our crew, this is a harvest you won't want to miss.

    Loving the videos, so used to 'small' farm things its go nice to see how a large farm operates, can not believe you take such a personal interest in so many different aspects of everything rather than just delegate and get reports. Managers from big companies could certainly learn a lot from your approach.

    James and team, this is fantastic content. The way you are presenting your operation is outstanding and the operation itself is very impressive. James, the way you manage your team is a credit to you... you would be highly sought after employer. I can tell by the personal connection you have with your team that is shown on each video and your team's professionalism, competence and knowledge they show. I've been watching for the last week after discovering the content. Keep uploading. Have a safe and enjoyable harvest. From a Kiwi dairy and beef farmer.

    love the videos. That drier is certainly much more advanced that when i ran one. Same principles though. I would get it all set up - then grandad would come in and start speeding it up behind my back and it would go out wetter or hotter than it should be. Just wonderful fun most of the time. (when i look back shovelling corn and putting malathiane dust on manually don't want to do that again!) keep going team.

We will import tons of vegetable oil, it's good winter cover for wildlife. and a food sauce for pollinators, ticks all the boxes of winter cover crops and feeds us,
