Mike Mitchell for a no holds barred honest appraisal of farm equipment.

He’s running some European kit out in Canada as well and their conditions push the kit to their limits.

He fills his 5 seed drills up and they each have enough for 800ac of seeding! His Amazone sprayer 300ac per tank. He kills fendt tractors and JD RX’s.

"Hoof GP" is bleady brilliant and he explains so well what's he's doing and why. Really caring and edited well with wonderful scenery. Especially liked the limo bulls foot he done with the afterwards video first and eventually the first trimming video and love the comments he gets as just so positive [emoji106].


Tom Pemberton has done some good videos as also "It's a farming life for me" and "I farm we farm" and "Farmer Phil".


Ollie's farm really gets on my tits I am afraid but I think he uses to much beginners detail possibly.
Couldn't agree more with that,

HAY TEAM TV is a new one too that's good.

He's a different sort of a bloke.
Some serious equipment there. You know he runs big gear when he complains a 1050 Fendt has no powero_O

He’s got 6 Fendt Ideal combines with 50ft headers. 3 SP sprayers and 1 11,000 litre trailed sprayer. It’s crazy until you see the grain storage bins and then it gets even crazier. There must be 30 of the things.
There’s even a cinema on the farm for the staff!

His biggest field is 5,000 acres.

I highly doubt any of it is his.....

His great grandfather started the farm originally. It’s ramped up since he and his brothers got involved. Today it’s a mixture of owned and rented land wise.

Machinery wise it’s mostly on lease type deals which fix costs over vast acres. A friends son did a season 2 yrs ago over there.

First time I've seen them today, watched a couple, will have to watch some more when I get chance.
I did see his yard tour (y)

How many acres does Mike farm over? I've never heard him say, though I've only seen a few so far. Immense scale, it's hard to comprehend when I think 10acres is a fair field

Think he said in one for the replies that its around 40,000 acres. Biggest 5000 acres smallest 40 acres.

I like watching him as he says it how it is, no brand loyalty at all. Watch Farmer Phil, Brians farming videos, Millennial Farmer, 10th Generation dairy farmer, Mark Brock, Hoof GP, and Welker for farming and Doubleboost and Abom79 for machining. Also like Jonny1388 but he's not put any out lately. Did watch Cole the cornstar and Tom Pemberton but gone off them know

I’ve watched a few of his videos, it takes a while to get over how annoying he is though :LOL:

One thing I have noticed is he seems to say “I” quite a lot when it comes to owning/buying/paying for equipment. Very little mention of everyone else involved apart from his girlfriend.
