Farmers earn more from YouTube than their crops

It was certainly a surprise as I honestly thought it would have had water in the cylinders after all that time.
Over the last year I've been considering just leaving it there 😂
if you want another 6354 to start come do a vid here on old irrigation pump not been going for ten years
bring tunmore with you just in case no wasps nests 🙈🙈🙈🫣🤣🤣🤣
 
Did you see the Bluetooth wheel holder
Thought that was brilliant how the wheel stood up unaided in the middle of the shed 👀
Yes it was very impressive :ROFLMAO: I hope you’re sending him the prayers he’s asking for the 6930. Hopefully he can get the accumulators sorted out and wheels resprayed before silage time. Very stressful stuff.
I mean the poor lad still hasn’t had enough time to service the manitou yet, must be the big hours he’s putting on his machines.

He certainly makes YouTube a better place 🤣

The farm this is filmed on belongs to my sons friends. He worked there for a while as second in command of the cows and about 30 Mexicans. Unfortunately it was during covid so i never got out there, hopefully I will soon. I think they are still the largest dairy on one site in Canada, certainly they are expanding fast. There are a number of other parts of the business not shown including another dairy and a vast number of broilers.


Not the best video but interesting.

Big money outfit there, the quota alone would be worth £30m or more. Never really could figure out how a lot of these farms expand so fast under the quota system, they must know something I don't.

Add in the chicken quota I think they do well out of them, also selling a lot of animals to the states.

I was in NS last year, family farm near Kingston :)

Yes for sure. Chicken farmers here seem to do well.

Kingston is a nice place. Went to college not far from there, usually try to get down there every year, a lot more farming going on there than where I'm at in the eastern end of the province. 👍

It honestly beats me. When does the guy sleep?!

perhaps in your next video you could let us know what you think of the 6930. It wasn’t clear whether you liked it or not.
I do like it but is it worth keeping the state the rear wheels are in🤔 It has served us well considering the hours we have put on it over the last year, 87💪

It’s getting obvious that it’s holding you back 😢
Have you heard about the Cheffins sale that’s quite near to you? Might be worth going to see if there are any 8rx’s there, or a quaddy as a replacement.
 
Watched toms latest video, where apparently he gets stuck, yet doesn’t need anyone to pull him out. Madness carry on. Say he must have driven into the field with a YouTube video title in mind. Embarrassing commentary as his driving out of it, not a care in the World.
He’s got a bit cringeworthy playing to the masses now. Used to really enjoy his stuff but have stopped watching now

I guess a dramatic thumb nails gets views.
No matter how crap the video is.
I do like Tom but sometimes he seems to get a bit over excited about stuff.
Also his farther the engineer that’s not an engineer that thought a 4240 case was a good tractor really should leave Tom crack on in my opinion.
