Its funny how most on here have the same views on these You tubers in therms of there personalities Mike place is fascinating for its size he does not state the acreage they farm or at least not as far as I am aware but they road machines for over 5 hrs between farms !!! He is very annoying though, i though it was only me thinking that.
Cole the corn star I cant watch , he sounds better than he looks in fairness but these sunglasses make him look like a right Bell E## and it his brother with the 1970's Mullet he should be in some porn film :D
Farming Fixing Fabricating is another interesting one that is well worth look

MN takes some beetling for a overall mix of Video , comment , humor etc i've only listened to few but his podcast are ok as well

Mike’s 40,000 acres and growing. I like him and he doesn’t annoy me at all. I like the fact he just turns his phone on and videos with virtually no editing. His agronomy video last week was fascinating.

10th generation dairyman is pretty good, nice seeing a smaller family dairy farm.
Still uses silage towers, thought they'd died out years ago.
Quite a few in these parts, we fill quite a few, one farm operation we cut for has two 32ft x 130ft and a 148ft.
Another client is currently having a 30 x 140 erected. The building process is fascinating I'll see if I can get some pics.

If you're missing this year's county show season , these guys are great, they haven't been at it long but some great content and comedy moments.
Should also add the 3 day show is running to raise money for worthwhile charities if anyone feels like supporting them.

You seen mikes recent ones spraying with a plane and getting rid of 2 almost new sprayers

I thought he was very diplomatic with his Amazone comments. It seems they were complete junk but he talked quite nicely about the company.
Same with those AGCO combines and Fendt tractors in other videos.
Doesn't have much luck does he?

You look at what they do and it is full on and flat out. The sparayers looked good but I think speeds not there. I think the amazons look the best. But like he said keep them simple keep them cheap. I like the fact he goes for value went with fendt due to warranty and they have looked after him. I guess spending a few million with them helps.


I have really started disliking milenial farmer though his last how amazing is wd40 sent me over the top I think

Agree about Millennial farmer, he does love promoting stuff for people.
I noticed he was fairly quiet about the transmission failing on one of his Deere's at 2000 hours (I think) Thought it might disappear as a trade in but he seems to have got it back.

Its what I enjoy about watching farms on YouTube seeing how differently people do things. The North American ones are great because it's just so different state to state.

Larson Farms is also a decent watch. About 5000ac growing corn and soya. Another good example of running older stuff and fixing themselves rather than running new stuff.

Laura farms is interesting at times, mostly as she is very easy on the eyes.

I watch olf.....brilliant, my sense of humour. World weary but seems to be happy with his new wife and kid.
Lord Muck, ...really enjoy his videos done with a bit of pee take in them.
Tom pemberton.....seems a real nice lad
Farmer Phil.....interesting with his bulls for the factory and slurry spreading.
Funky farmer, good bloke who really describes uk family farming to his audience.
I can't get away with millennial farmer also Ollies farm (he gives the image that farmers can just go out and buy new gear as and when they want).
I agree with all this. The funky farmer. Farmer Phil and tom pemberton are the best I think.

I can't stand Ollies farm. He just seems a bit of a show off, constantly talking about getting new gear. Had about 5 telescopic on demo and did he actually buy anything in the end.at least the other 3 mentioned above are happy with the gear they have and are really delighted if they get a 15 year old very spreader like tom pemberton.
