  • In this first episode of farming Britain we are gathering the Carneddau ponies from the welsh mountains with Gareth Wyn Jones, plus shopping for new machinery at the LAMMA show 2024 with Andy Crow and Charlotte Ashley. We have news with David Wright on the "hay bale of news," plus we hear the distressing story of trying to make a dairy work in West Wales in 2024. Steve Evans and his family are losing £35K / month and a new Bovine Tb outbreak could mean the end for their business.
    It's real farmers, real farming and real issues.

    What a fantastic channel! Definitely one I am happy to sign up to. 1000x better than country file and other, so called, farming shows.

    Last week I sold my dairy herd because I cannot cope with TB. It’s heartbreaking , we went TB clear and decided enough is enough and sold the cows while we were in control of their movements. The whole TB disaster is just barbaric and farmers should not have to put up with such a distressing situation.

      Thank you for posting - We hope Steve's story will show people outside the world of farming just how incredibly hard it can be. ATB David

    A real life look at British farming. How do you sleep waiting for TB results when your entire life and the lives of those you employ, and the wider sector could be ruined. Due to politics

    After 40 years at sea I gave it all up to invest, and work on, a small organic farm. I honestly believe that farming has a future in the U.K. Bit it will not be a under the current world system.

    Excellent new show & channel.
    I started out in UK game keeping & farming back in the start of the 1980s. I moved on into electronics, them moved to Canada but I still stay interested & in contact with farming & keepering friends. I nowxwork with large equipment like excavators, loaders & skid steers... keep up the great work!

    A real video with real people and real issues. Very well filmed and edited. Having grown up on the family farm and moving away in a different direction as a machinery dealer. I now find myself with children who are keen to buy livestock for our new small farm, they consume every farming related video available and now want to put their own footprint down. I will certainly be pointing them towards these videos. Good luck with the channel.

    Hi Gareth, I hope you are OK. I love your programs what are we as farmers and a nation were the government are not going to listen they don't want to they are like the Robin Hood times steal from the poor and give to the rich that's what it's like now no one cares about everything in this country even though farming is thousands of years old. If I can help you and other youtube farmers get a voice or action over to this stupid government, feel like sqaring but I hold back iam here with you farmers I lost a dairy farm years ago and still fighting to be a farmer always a farmer its in your blood

    Price of tractors and machinery piss me off, I would like all farmers to stop buying new tractors and machinery for 6 months and bring the manufacturers to their knees.

    • @keva1700
      @keva1700 5 місяців тому

      It would have been nice to see what some of the prices were for that machinery, can't imagine how expensive they are. I'm not a farmer, but many years ago, I went to a Lamma near Newark, I think it was. It was a bit damp. I remember John Craven being there, doing a report on rural crime. There was a big tractor there all battenburged up. Saw John Ketley too, he used to be a weather man.

    I didn’t like the Vegan segment
    I am a Vegan and have been for over 40 years
    People like me are not your Enemy
    I care about Human Beings just as much as I care about Animal Welfare
    Ethical Farming, Sustainable Farming and Food Security is very important to me too. I care about the Farming Community.
    Just because I don’t eat meat doesn’t make me your foe. If we were to sit down you would find that we agree on most things. I just happen not to eat meat.
    For the Record: Laboratory Grown Meat is not Veganism
    That was a cheap shot

    • @lat1419
      @lat1419 5 місяців тому

      There are a lot of vegans who are incredibly strident. Plant-based diets are a personal choice. I was vegetarian for 30 years and it wrecked my health. I only realised after starting a carnivore diet and reversed 30 years of inflammatory diseases, disability and despair. Again, a personal choice, but it is becoming increasingly obvious that people like me need our farmers more than ever.
