Hi farmers!

Hi farmers,

I am a student working on a cutting edge solution for farmers and their agricultural matters! I would really appreciate if someone could post what their daily routine in the farm is like- whether its managing crops, live stock, how its done, how soil samples are taken and and what time of the year? things like these to give me an insight to the life of a farmer.

This would be great for me farmers!

Is your cutting edge solution to do with blades going blunt?

What does routine mean

How can you be working on a 'cutting edge' solution for farmers when you don't seem to have a clue what they do all day!

Simple, the OP is a management consultant.

Damn those sneaky management consultants trying to trick us out of our money

Oh Wait a minute...I have no money to be tricked out of

I wake up in the morning and I raise my weary head.
Got an old coat for a pillow, and the Earth was last nights bed.

I put my trousers on, have a cuppa tea, and I think about leaving the house.

I feed the sheep, I sometimes feed the cattle too....

Whilst most replies are somewhat facetious, you cannot expect anything else. I am all in favour of helping young people who want to learn and do my best to respond to sensible posts. The problem is that so many of you seem to lack any knowledge of the world. Where have you been, what sort of education have you had, and what have you learned about farming in the first 20 or so years of your life?

Even if you do have a "cutting edge solution", to what is it the solution? Perhaps we do not have the problem you think we have. Or perhaps we do. Please tell us what the problem is.

I would really appreciate if someone could post what their daily routine in the farm is lik

I am well past my best before date so need to have a fair idea of what my work load is going to be tomorrow, but the weather can change that. For instance last night I decided I would do some blossom time spraying today on drupes - I am mainly in trees. A strong wind stopped that, so I continued with the ongoing task of olive pruning. Tomorrow morning I am going into town for some necessary supplies. I have even had a shave in preparation. The Brits in Portugal tend to have scruffy beardlets (if there is such a word) and long hair, often a pony tail, and that is just the men.

My routine is usually not a routine, but different tasks every day. I am sure you do not want a record of what I did each day through 2016, but if you want to know generally what I did over a period of about 60 years then I will give you my favourite expression "It is in the book".

Get yourself some wellies, and find a farm willing to give you some work experience, that's best way to find out what's going on and will give you an insight into the life of a farmer.

Whilst you're there suggest little things the farmer could change to make their life easier, the grumpy response you get will soon teach you that you can't teach an old dog new cutting edge solutions

But that would mean leaving the office

Now if you could make something to shear sheep.....

 

[davieh3350]

@DropBotExe if someone hasn't already suggested it, get yourself over to the introduce yourself thread and get yourself known, then stay and join in the fun, don't let all our p!ss taking put you off, there's some decent folk on here, but 95% of us are set in our ways and don't like being told how to make less of a mess of our farms.

Or to erase our memory of them.
