Adrian I would just like to thank you for taking your time every week to record yourself working around the farm, I know how difficult that can be especially when your in a rush, it’s really a great thing that you make these entertaining and very informative videos for us to watch for free, I would like to think UA-cam pay you fairly but UA-cam favours quantity over quality. My family sit down on Sunday nights now with the darker evenings and love your videos, best of luck with future calving season and selling your animals.
Thanks Paddy, appreciate that mate
Well said about the rules and regulations, big shots will never see the farmers side of the story
Keep positive adrain, you farmer's are the backbone of the country, really like your videos
You have my sympathy Adrian, the government departments don’t care about the stress they can cause. Here in Wales a farmer friend was told to have a word with the Samaritans. I think your reasoning is perfectly sound.
Adrian, in farming the job is the easy but it’s the red tape and pen pushers that make it awkward and difficult. The gov are the ones that cause the problems and that’s why we end up sitting at night filling in endless stupid forms. Be safe and keep doing the job to your usual high standard Adrian 👍
We are living in a time petrification where extreme fear of the slightest risk is over-exaggerated and draconian rules are dreamt up. Another word to describe it is panic!
Good video and I wish you well for the next test.
That fitting will leak again, there’s a special welding Rod you can use on the stick welder for hydraulic lines, it leaves a gold colour finish. It’s a good job, I’ve done several with no issues.
A 309 rod, I’ve used them in the past, yes there probably a better job. We’ll see how it goes and I will update if it leaks for sure. 👍
Well said Adrian department doesn't care about farmers only living of our back well done for standing up and bringing this problem into publics eye keep videos coming great content 👍
Keep your chin up Adrian, farming life is tough, but again thankyou for all the hard work you all do out there.
Well done for keeping a straight face when the cow farted it made me laugh 😂😂.
Nice one Adrian, pen pushers, they are clueless to the workings of a farm or the pressure they put farmers under!
Love watching a man of many talents
Good man Adrian. Farmers r far too quiet for the department and those boys living off us are finished at 5 in the evening and no thought going to all d catch up that must b done on the farm they were at that day. Good luck 🚜 shopping
Before i weld anything that has had oil in it i heat it up with a gas blow torch and it burns the oil off, then the mig welding doesnt go pourous due to contamination of the weld from the oil. Also warm steel welds better than cold steel so the heating makes it easier welded. Dont worry Adrian if your weld doesnt look as tidy as you would like, that will come better with practise, if it stopped the oil leak then its a success.
It a lot of stress and pressure on farmers caring for herds of cattle and the government don’t care about what farmers go true and good luck with the tractor search hope you find what your looking for
What a load of grief Adrian regards blood testing again.
I feel for you and the other farmers that have to go through it all again.
Cool video friend got a laugh 😅with you and your dog 🐕 with the air compressor gun and keep the great work up and please keep the great videos coming friend from Scotland 👍😀
If the top-link hyd. fitting is hitting the rear housing of the tractor, put it on with the chrome rod end on the tractor, and the cylinder end on the lifter.
Just be positive and keep up the good work, i know how you feel because also in romania a few years ago, was the same story with blue tongue and it were so stressfull, now we have swine fever and many many pigs were killed... sometimes i want to go single to an island and left everething here..
I'm in USA....and the farming issues are insane....keep going farms will clear the air and feed the world..you are important
Full marks for what you say, Adrian. However, you may be better off than farmers in England and Wales, who are getting increasingly frustrated with this current government bringing in a whole bunch of new rules that almost seems like they want to close down farming in this country!
Yeah your right. Import from the US.........Money money money...
Another great video Adrian as always government department they don’t care about the stress they are cause your cattle looking great it is all about money Adrian 🚜👍👌🏴🏴🇬🇧🇬🇧
I don’t believe they don’t care, there’s just not enough proper communication between there expertise and our knowledge
Couldn't agree with you more on your views at the end of the video,it is putting too much stress on farmers,and accidents can happen because of it.Thank you for sharing your experience and I hope your animals will be ok.Thanks for the update👍
Great video Adrian.. I’m worried you’re about to ditch that lovely Case🥲
Great Video Adrian Thank you for sharing....I love how grand your livestock looks and how immaculate your buildings, machinery and yards always look ...good job 👍👍👍👍
I think exactly the same Keith . I did once leave a comment saying so but I could have worded it better . I’d heard Tom Pemberton remark on how he aspires to have his farm clean one day like Adrian’s , or words to that affect . Unfortunately it sounded like I was dissing Tom’s farm . Well at that moment it was before he even started planning the new shed , they were flooded out in the fields and he just couldn’t keep on top of it , worrying whether they would get a 3rd cut . Then things turned , they got to use the shed down the road , they acquired more land he got his dream Case etc.,etc .,etc.
Adrian reminded me he and Tom are friends , which I knew about but he was right and now you look at the system Tom has to keep the place clean of cow excretions . I’m half expecting to see a commercial version of those little remote vacuum cleaners but whizzing around between the cows’ legs .
@@Helen-sound Thanks Helen....if you have seen it or subscribed ...you might appreciate a new channel JM Farming their 700 acre farm is very well run and also immaculate ....like Adrians place....Tom is getting on top of his place these days...and his new easyfix furnished new shed looks amazing I am sure they will find a way to better darin their land.
@@keithaspin5160 Thank you I will have a look at that . I used to live in Lytham so I know the area well.
@@Helen-sound Tom will do well in life, his dad is a great teacher too which helps a lot. He has achieved an awful lot in a very short space of time. Thanks Helen
@@IFarmWeFarm I hope so too Adrian
Love your films most suited to me content on UA-cam
Fusion on the way I think Adrian with that bit of praise 👏
Great video as always
If the ball in top link is that stuck solid make sure you have the stabilizer arms are tight. You could crack the housing on the tractor if the implement can move as the ball cant
It does move but not by hand power, when you use the pin it will move. But your totally correct otherwise Padraig
Ah cool. Sorry I took you up that the ball was stuck solid. Anyway least she's not leaking anymore.
God love you Adrian, hope the test goes well. 100% right about farm accidents, they do happen when your mind is elsewhere and in a rush. Pray to god that’s the end of the tests for you this year 🙏
Your not alone, here in Scotland the ministry wanted us to bring all our highlands with calves at foot in to go through the crush just to check there ear tags. They had only been turned out two weeks prior and were miles away from the farm, there is no common sense in these departments.
Hi Adrian, don't allow the Department to push you around, refuse point blank to carry out any further testing on your cows after they have been tested twice already, they are too close to calving and you have more than done your bit, tell the Department to get lost re. any further testing.
Hello from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for sharing your great video’s please keep them coming.
Great video again Adrian.
Well said adrian the up and down of farming
Adrian, if I could sub to a channel twice you’d get both. It’s great to see what you do and what you get up to in your day to day jobs. Keep up the good work 👍🏻 also congrats on the new arrival!
Great video Adrian, all this hassle with testing again with cows so close to calving is a headache u don't need.
Be careful in future welding wit short sleeve t-shirt, I know u wear gloves but can still get burnt from welder. Got burnt meself years ago when wearing short sleeves, be careful with welder. Stay safe 👍
Great Vlog A...hopefully the cows don't get too stressed with the test...suppose you just have to get on with things no matter how pointless or in your own words ludicrous...
Great video Adrian them people sitting in a office making up these rules haven’t a clue about farming topical isn’t it
Same here our contractor uses notting only mchale fusion he had them from the very start and yes they certainly do make a fantastic bale. Great video as always Adrian keep up the good work.. And to just add to your conversation the people that make these stupid rules wouldn't have a clue how to calve a cow. Idiots we had a tb reactor this year after been over 20 plus years tb free so I totally understand where you are coming from it can get to you and then Idiots on the end of the phone given you orders.. chin up buddy 👍...
Fare play Adrian your spot on .department and there rules some good but some crazy ideas.
I'm a veterinarian (not a government vet) and farmer's daughter, and I apologize for the ludicrous ruling from my colleague. Can your local private veterinarian help intervene for you? YOU didn't import the animals, and you deserve compensation for any trouble caused by this illogical testing. I'm sorry. BTW, your collie is adorable.
well said Laura
Excellent video as always
Have you considered using the smart collar for the cows. It’s supposed to detect when the cows are in heat and sick. Everyone that has them seems to love it.
Yes I have looked into them this year, one day I might possibly go down that route.
@@IFarmWeFarm good deal, looking forward to see what you think, there seems to be a ton of people still not using them and anyone that does have them say they wouldn’t work without them again,
Hi Adrian just a friendly warning cover your arms when using the MIG there's serious uv rays off them. You would get a good roasting in a short time.
Hey adrain young Farmer in France i remeber a few years back we were tortured with that bullshit
All the best anyway 👍
the clay in the bale was picked up with the baler
The dog & the air blow gun 😄
0:25 / 0:26 sounded horrible when the massey started. Great vid Adrian.
It’s just the hydraulic’s bleeding the system after sitting 2 days. Might sound rough but completely normal 👍
Its a 309 rod you need its for welding dissimilar metals
I Agree with you about stress.
I love watching your videos as I love animals and love watching how they are well cared for and the hard work that goes in to them. Thanks. On another note many of us breeding dogs have struggled to get the bitches in whelp and we’ve no idea why? Maybe the same sort of reasons as you as it’s up and down the country too. All very odd!! Keep up the good work you do
Bailey with the airline 😂
Great work on the video as usual sir. 👏 been meaning to mention your loader headstock is a combi headstock thar are quite hard to get hold of now euro 3/trima and euro 8. So have some extra value 😉. Stay safe 🏴
It's the same overhere in NZ rules brought out by govt agencies that create extra work and cost, usually when the issue isnt even yours.
Well said Adrian You are the same and no different than the rest of us, in what ever business. !!! I have thought for years. That some of these people in « the well paid part of Officialdom « Get up on a Monday morning and the first thing they think off. Is what new rule can we put in this week. Was the beast that came in from France, put into quarantine ? Better if the Dept of Ag got the problem sorted out at the arrival door !!!!
Great video Adrian your cows r in Great shape
You need to get one of thees they are much easyer than go out of the tactor and hook the equipment on 👌🤠
Were you trying to take some of the heat off Farmer Phil's welding video 😂🤣
That break cleaner is great to clean oil but the fumes welding it after wouldn’t be great to breathe🙈. I know it takes longer you’d be better taking of the gland and pulling out the piston.
Straight away….what!
“Stress from rules and DFRA” - I was three weeks away from my knee replacement and already being careful and not seeing people! Call to TB test ASAP - what happens, a heifer kicks me and breaks the skin under the knee and the operation is postponed for 4 weeks by which time recovery time falls into winter feeding! The stress on getting a friend to feed, rams in with ewes and recovery taking place later than planned is not good. Do DEFRA care or understand - no.
The person who invented the hydraulic toplink should get a statue! :P couldn't do my job without one, or at least it makes it a whole lot easier :P
Pure opposite for me😂
@@patrickconcannon6006 go on concannon
@@geraldgreene6108 u found me Gerald😂
Hydraulic pressure was like reinventing the wheel 👌👍
@@IFarmWeFarm So true! but we also shouldn't forget about the invention of the dishwasher😆
great video hope everything works out for you
Get a check valve for the top link. Reverse and turn upside down. Big safety issue there if a hose burst. Check/creep valve essential with that weight
Hi Adrian,
Great video as always, unbelievable the department of agriculture, they don't care one bit about you or your animals etc, they are having their way regardless and leave it there to when you ring the office, the response I have got on numerous occasions has been anything but helpful and made me feel and think that I must be stupid or "do you not understand" kind of an attitude and certainly not pleasant at all, shirts and tie's and fancy dresses 🤡. Well said Adrian. 👏
Great fix on the toplink and the Case starting 💯% like a dream. 🚜🤯🤗🐄👍.
Here’s a man who shows great welfare and care to his animals, just the little thing like closing the pet dog out of the shed while welding. But she loves the airline. LOL. Keep up the good word Adrian. 👍👍
Vets are supposed to coduct what's called surveillance which should mean every herd gets same inspection within a certain area. They decide number of visits and size of area . You have to ask what is the point of a test when all animals pass what is not a contagion disease.
I dont know why we are importing livestock from France, and if it must be done why aren’t they quarantined and tested for things like blue tongue before they are left out around the country?
So many problems arise with livestock moved around so much; we really should restrict this now, before we get another BSE or the like.
Get them in quick Adrian beacuse with this year's grass being so good and them near ready for calving which when they calf the possibley get milk fever
Well said Adrian
Bloody bureaucracy in farming. To many people up high with no idea and too much time on their hands.
On another note, you've still fair grass there Adrian, do you have any sheep on your ground over the winter?
Adrian I said something about how ridiculous some of the rules and regulations are in your country and man did it pi$$ a few people off instantly. I believe in herd health and all of that but it doesn't need constant stress and testing to the animals when there is no need for it.
I think that top link is fixed and you will probably still be using it when you retire. I agree with you about the forced tests, some years back the Department forced a TB test on my little herd of 18 suckler cows a month before calving when they had been clear tested a few months before. Two late calving heifers aborted and in 30 years I have never had a cow abort. Cattle react bad to stress and just want to be left alone, just like the owner. It's very annoying and like dealing with Hitler's Nazis and adds stress and uncertainty we could well do without. Different if it was justified.
I wonder if you use much selenium or B12 with your animals?? Fantastic results with both.
Yes that’s one of the main things we’re focusing on at that moment Paul, how are you guys administering it?
@@IFarmWeFarm Hi,used to be able to drench it,but now I use multimineral injection that includes selenium. Will sometimes give B12 on its own.Dont milk these days but the 15 months beef cross hfrs had 3 injections over our winter and are bulling crazy. Retained after birth membrane is also a sign of selenium deficiency. Love your genuine down to earth video's. I'm originally a Kiwi but now live in Aussie
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍that's right never will a john deere guy be able to say that 🤣🤣they charge extra even for the bolts 🔩
Great video👍
We had 32 not go In calf last year
Great content as always. Bit late to this video, but anyways. I understand your frustration at the timing of the tests and them having to be done again, but from a neutral perspective from a non-farmer, I still remember the foot and mouth outbreaks. I'll never forget seeing full pens of livestock in flames. Some of these regulations and practices are for the betterment of the whole farming community. I'm not laying blame on anyone, but I think there needs to be give and take on both sides to achieve a safe herd and environment.
You demonstrate well what its like for a small independent farm, you keep your practices clean etc, and your herd looks immaculate. I think again the unfortunate side to farming is its not a 1 man job, and all of the regulations and safety protocols make your job harder and may take twice as long. But thats the nature of the beast, rules are written in blood.
anyways just my two cents. Wish you the best in future!
If a cow throws a calf send the bill to the department. And continue to follow it all the way through the courts
Well done great video 👍
Floor creeper on the wall, I've never seen the like of it.
What will Adrian do next?
Here aidrain you should have bought a Ford in the first place sure a 7610 is the same tipe of tractor as ur case a nice wee yard tractor but a lot more reliable s 😊😉
I’ll tell you what, I nearly bought a 7810 before I bought the case. Always loved the look and sound of them
Hi the angle Berry you can take a sample from the anamal and get a vaccine for that anamal only from the vet
Ya we did that twice before, unfortunately although expensive it was ineffective
Well I’m not a farmer but I’m going to say it “That’s Bloody Ridiculous !” Even I can see why you’re angry .
Once the decision was made without consulting the farmers it’s going to effect it sounds like it’s set in stone . Anything you say is just going to fall on the deaf ears of people who don’t have the knowledge of the risks.
I hope everything goes okay .
Dealing with the government bureaucracy is like banging your head against the wall. It feels so good when you stop. Hope you find out what has been causing problems with fertility in your heifers.
As bad as you have it, we have 21 heifers 7 didn’t go in calf. It’s a horrible feeling
That it is mate 👍
Paint that ram john deere green.🤣🐄🍺🇮🇪
It's Crocodile Cavan
No check valve on the toplink is very dangerous
Hi great video
Really 😡😡😡 annoying Adrian you have the best interest of the animals at heart no farmers want to put animals in the crush more times than they have to especially when there heavily in calf the department a law to themselves
It’s no fully the departments fault, I found out a lot since and so of the blame actually rests with the IFA not imposing a chance in how imports are tested
Hows the tef20?
Adrian that cow farting did enormous damage to the
Methane methane....climate change.....LOL
Sell it and buy a log splitter 🤔😆
Ai is just not workin well anymore
First
Why would you buy aminals from a differnt country? The local mart is much handy with less paper work.
Do you get compensated for the tests because they have been instructed by a government vet?
It's a joke all that testing not blame ya for being anoyed I got caught for herd test few years back when was milking in December had 5 cows lost calves over it
Put top link in top hole, and turn upside-down
