    Farmers earn more from YouTube than their crops

    I definitely agree these companies know more about you than you'd like and definitely listening to your conversations. Not sure I can cope with more stuff to watch though. I suppose it's hard to know what you're missing if you don't know it's there. Just looked on your channel and I've watched...

    Farmers earn more from YouTube than their crops

    Maybe I don't watch enough controversial stuff 🤷🏼‍♂️ but when I've searched for a particular topic I've always found something to watch or a new channel to follow. I've never been unsubscribed to a channel. I subscribe to your channel and your new videos always pop up on my page to watch. I...

    Farmers earn more from YouTube than their crops

    I pay for YouTube premium and I think for the same price as 3 pints a month it's not bad value. I can watch all the content I want whenever I want without having to endure any adverts. I have a broad range of interests and there's probably 10 or more channels I watch on a weekly basis. If they...

    Feed bin sensors

    From what I gathered I didn't think they were that impressed with the strain gauges. We're currently doing a feed trial for them, no offer of any weighing systems for the bins

    Dog exercise fields ?

    We have 2 fields, planning permission is needed for change of use. Councils are more clued up about them now, don't be surprised if you have to do traffic surveys and noise survey's. It does pay but it's far more hassle than you can ever imagine and you're expected to be at the end of the phone...

    Dog walking field

    Absolutely impossible to say! We've been open over 3 years and I still can't see a pattern to the bookings. Weather plays a big part in the number of bookings, hot weather being the worse for a drop in bookings. We were 50% down in bookings last week to the previous week. You may find the...

    Pros and cons of central boom 4 wheel steer telehandler.

    I think the first Claas coloured loaders were Sanderson's. The Targos were Cat built. We have a Targo, much nicer machine to drive around a yard than a JCB I sometimes drive.

    Bed & Breakfast Pigs

    So 100x50 shed on a scrape through, a third has to be scrape passage. Leave 315sqm for a lying area. 0.315sqm/pig still sounds to tight to me. Might be ok up to 30kgs but pigs are always 40kg+ at 9 weeks

    Bed & Breakfast Pigs

    O.4sqm/ weaners on a straw based system? Were double that allowance and they can still look tight 9 weeks later

    Kubota B8200 loader problem

    No the pipe work is from a block (load sensing?) from the centre of the tractor. What the green arrow is pointing to in the picture.

    Kubota B8200 loader problem

    Hi, I've got my Brother in Laws Kubota to look at, it's got a loader on it and the loader is very slow to lift, he took the loader off when he got it so don't know if it's always been a problem. Power steering and rear linkage all work fine so I think I the hydraulic pump is ok. Oil level is...

    Fibre to the premises help

    We were looking like we were going to need a new trench and duct digging in to get fibre, we were told they wouldn't put it in a trench ontop of gas or electric so not sure they would do what you are suggesting.
