Farmers earn more from YouTube than their crops

wrapping all the bales didn't go too well for Olly farms.. Lucky it wasn't contract work he was doing.

Haven’t watched his videos in ages, heard he was moaning about the build quality on his Kuhn haybob, because pins were breaking, and got called out by the Hay Team in the comments for “ operator error, not manufacture error“ Olly then deleted their comment.

Then the hay team broke theirs.

That was a big haybob I don't think I have seen a 10 rotor haybob before

I think that it was a Kuhn though?

It was I was as my dad would say being a facetious arse.

Though I do wish our Volto 52 was built as strong but then it is less than half the size as the outer guards always seem to fail somewhere and I'll forgive the splitting frame near the pivot point given my dad somehow managed to run it over while it was attached to the tractor. I wish he was into making YouTube videos as I would have loved to have know how the hell he managed it!

Watched the video you're talking about, what a mess he's made of that. Something tells me he's going to have a lot of waste silage this winter.

Olly the Wally at it again, all the gear and no idea springs to mind.

I bet silolite are really pleased they let him have that wrap on a "special" deal

I mean surely by the point he’s building a wall to stop the wrap flapping about in the wind and missing the knife, you’d know something wasn’t right with how it was set up?!
No doubt the wrapper manufacturer will be getting the blame in the next video.

i think most of his followers have just moved up from tractor ted. Cant see any one over big school age take him seriously. Chalk and cheese between him and tom pemberton who looks like he understands business and isnt just living off a rich daddy

The wrapper won't be no good now and will have to be traded in for a more expensive top of the range one.

Tom pemberton is excellent and with people like him ag in this country had a bright future.

He comes across as a pratt, but tbf ive not seen much of his stuff and don't know him so can't comment really. Not sure if anyone else is on instragram , but what is it with all these so called farming "influencers/ ambassadors" don't get me wrong there's some great ones that I really enjoy looking at, few lads local, Tom pemberton, the funky farmer, Lucy pye, they all come across as really hardworking genuine folk and interesting. But there's a few wannabee no it alls about with not a lot of experience which drive me crazy !

I only had a speedy watch with some skips but it looked like it was threaded wrong. The only time we had issue with the wind has been when it has turned slightly past the tipping position causing a little bit of slack before it would pinch it as it tipped up which was made infinitely worse when my dad pumped about a grease cartridge into the tensioner rollers thankfully we now have some Film Technique ones which are 100x better than the originals.

Also we never really got on with Silotite whether it was just a bad batch but several rolls sporadically over a couple of years came pre-perforated before the crows even had a chance.

I'm talking about Ollyblogs on YouTube......

 

[Wreckit Ralf]

Seen Olly's (Olly's farm) recent video (another where he's just standing around talking and not doing any work ) where he's talking about how you need to " buy smart " - " buy machinery that's going to be worked, not just because you want to buy it ) Okay, says the clown that bought a brand new wrapper that's worked for about 2 days in as many years, had a quad but went and bought a newish Gator and now has a Defender, talking about buying another tractor when the JD is parked up in most of the videos, when he also bought that JD with a loader but didn't like it, so bought a Manitou. There was also nothing wrong with his old 6930, but he wanted something new so bought that 155R
Not sure our friend Olly should be handing out financial and buisness advice.
Anyway, how's his contracting buisness going?

 

[graham mc]

think its doing as well as his groundwork's business !!

mind you hes not that stupid as i guess he gets payed per view so it dont matter who watches him

Says the clown that bought a brand new wrapper that's worked for about 2 days in as many years.

To be fair I doubt our wrapper has worked much more than that admittedly it is secondhand and I prefer working with haulage over hay due to my asthma though dad prefers hay as he feels it costs less though you turn it more. But it has been worth its weight in gold where the forecast has changed in it allowing us to make haylage instead before it rains having lost 12 acres of a bumper crop to a week of rain and no contractor with any time to wrap it as everyone had been in the same boat.
