How can you say you’ve failed? There are so many people in this industry trying to pull farmers down to try and justify their own existence by thinking they’re an expert.
It’s a credit to you that you realise how much work is involved in dairying at 23. Many more out there have left college at...
Our classics are coming up 13year old and was told the v300 service contract price would be very similar and ours are more reliable.
My worry is the classics are not worth anything anymore, lely have a 2nd hand value.
AHDB had a jolly last week at the Hilton hotel Manchester, all paid for and only a select few big farmers invited, and usual YouTubers / influencers. Not the smaller farmers that maybe could do with the help.
Do farmers have the fight to protest anymore.
We dont have the support of the public anymore as they have been turned against us by animal rights and environmentalists.
We are constantly been blamed for destroying the planet by people with their mouths full while their planning their next flight...
With so many YouTubers a social media “”so called influencers”” putting videos and pictures on out there you don’t need to go to a show anymore, spoiling the surprise really. By the time I got home my son had most things online.
Bit like at concerts where there starting to ban people filming...
We have a doctor living next door, he was asking how things were going and we got on about our red tractor inspection.
He asked WHAT’S Red Tractor ???
He’s 50 and a GP and never heard of it. Did have to bite my tongue a bit.
Went on Wednesday, really busy, great everything inside in the warmth.
Doddle to get to on the train £30 return walk straight into the show.
Thursday looked bit quieter.
Yep, got the L2 icon so controls in the cab, plugs into tractor for the speed to vary the rate. It’s the time waiting for the PTO to stop reverse the discs set it off again.
I’ve a KRM and think the border spread is quite accurate, the only problem is with small fields you have to keep stopping the PTO to reverse the discs then start up again loose a lot of time. Otherwise accurate, easy to set up and well built.
Received an email other day from someone, didn’t mention my name and they didn’t exactly introduce themselves, just read
Hello,
I hoping to do you RT dairy inspection on the 30th November.
then his name.
Am I overreacting? I feel this comes across a bit arrogant from someone I don’t know and...
Yep, already milking 150. Cow building roof to replace, calf shed and with new regulations extra slurry storage. Yes there is grants, but it seems to depend where you are in the country, not much money readily available in Lancashire, and you still have to borrow the money first.
All this just...
We’re wondering what to do, to invest in milking cows £300,000 doesn’t go very far and that’s where I am. I’m only 48 and I’ve only couple years left to be debt free so very lucky but do I want to saddle myself with more debt in uncertain times. The kids are 12 and 8 but I’m not encouraging them...
It’s not just the price the supermarkets pay it’s all the hoops we have to jump through to get there. The only winners I think are the likes of Kite and Promar, the supermarkets dont know what their doing so the consultants must be laughing because their getting paid to put all the pressure on...
