On episode 5, enjoying it so much.

@ajd132 if you think farms can’t have fudgeups on a daily basis you need to keep some livestock 😂 😂

That said, a lot of Ollyblogs crops make me feel a lot better about my own and they don’t tempt me to buy a Lincolnshire farmers Avatar.
I’m going to watch it later, i do enjoy it from an entertainment perspective not really a farming one though!

i did see abit of ollyblogs doing some avatar drilling the other day, if i was horsch i would sue him!

I have watched the first 5 episodes of series 2 and can’t fault much if any of the content.
I’ve never met Jeremy, but I I know his now “proper shepherd” ‘Sheeps’ partner, another Jeremy, very well.
Ironically, he’s a friend of Kaleb and another person starting in farming on his own, working very hard and earning tremendous respect from everybody in this area.

Here is me baling some hay in 2021 for ‘J the sheep’ on the field that Clarkson now keeps the cattle and cow-shite eating chickens on:

As for West Oxford DC, what a bunch of tossers!
I suspect that like Warwickshire’s Stratford on Avon DC, they don’t have that many Cotswold villages, so are over protective of them.
Any PP applications here are treated with Councillors laying on their backs with their arms and legs in the air, laughing hysterically!

What I really like about this series is that the deliberate Tom-foolery has gone.

Kaleb’s Farm

Leonel St Amand · ·

Love the Clarkson farm tv series.
Kaleb offers a real world farm experience & perspective to balance off Jeremy's inexperience in farming.
Jeremy is just making a realistic go at trying to keep his farm afloat while govt does everything it can to kill family farms
Farming must be redefined legally to permit farmers to do everything from producing the food to selling the food directly to customers in any form the customer wants the product.
Remove all restrictions on farm businesses like farm stores & restaurants.
It reminds me of what rural life was like in Canada and the US before the family farm was mostly eliminated and replaced with today's giant croporate factory farms.
The objector and others like him are destroying the economic and social roots of their communities. In Canada & the US "objectors" often have hidden power agendas & links to globalist industrial groups, like Bill Gates & mega farm corporations.
Jeremy is absolutely right to focus on what lies ahead as family farms are increasingly being forced off over a cliff on this unsustainable anti-farmer path.
Looking to Canada & the US offers a glimpse of what likely lies ahead for UK agriculture. Massive industrial scale farming that produces massive industrial low grade stuff that many countries won't buy.
Few farm jobs due to massive large scale mechanization, no family farm people left = no people left to support towns & their businesses. Urban populations that have lost touch with food production, farmers, common sense and the land itself.
Many rural towns are going extinct in Canada and the US as a result of widespread "objector stupidity" that drives destructive govt programs. Banning fertilizer and other such nonsense is bandied about.
Packaged food is harvested from mega supermarkets or ordered from factory kitchens and delivered to your door. WE have completely lost the struggle to save the middle class farm & the towns they supported. In Canada & the US govt replaced family farms with massive industrial scale farming, mostly through regulation and favorable mega govt farm financing.
The similarities between what Clarkson is experiencing and what happened in Canada and the US are eerily alike.
Don't let it happen in the UK. Save the middle class family farm.
Save the UK family farm by addressing the unworkable over regulated regime and freeing up farmers to succeed.

Tell you what else annoyed me is the comment from a “local “ in the meeting that you (clarkson) don’t need an income!! When did being successful in life be seen as a bad thing
Doubtless spoken by a "local" who

a) sold a London property to move there
b) derives her / his income NOT locally
c) doesn't spend much locally
