- 2022 harvest is all wrapped up but with the drought now official, what should we be planting for 2023 harvest? Is it worth risking putting in OSR in the hope of rain? Plus why I'm on the cover of Farmers Weekly this week..

I cannot believe that in times of growing food insecurity farmers are being encouraged to reduce output - congratulations for staying in production Harry!
Happening all around the world, Denmark farmers are protesting strongly, Indian farmers have been protesting for a couple of years against Monsanto taking over their co-operatives. Bill Gates buying up vast quantities of land. Monsanto and Bayer just purchased huge chunk of Ukraine farmland. Does it not make you question why? As you said it seems to not make sense, unless you know why, Build Back Better/Agenda 2030 all part of the WEF plans. Klaus Schwab, George Sorros and all the Davos mob.
completely agree - its head scratching madness!
Environmentalists figure there are two billion or so of us who are surplus to their needs.
Stalin ruthlessly killed people off by the million when they were surplus to his needs. Why shouldn't we expect environmentalists to do the same, except by the billion?
IMO the civil service has gone rogue
I'm not that familiar with the UK, but the EU scheme includes this "greening" part where you leave a bit of land unplanted (varies up to 7%). Well, since the war they've suspended this requirement to increase food production, farmers are free to plant 100% of their land, while still receiving the money.
Taking farmland out of production is a disgrace, paying people to take it out of production begs belief.
Farmers taking the WEF money not to grow food is a very dark and bad idea. When they come for your farm, you only have yourself to blame.
Yeh that's part of the big picture, lots cant see it tho!
From the sound of things it’s the government paying farmers for these wilding schemes. In other words the tax payer is paying farmers a lot of money for them to stop growing food. This will cut the supply and force up prices which will then fall back onto the tax payer.
How schemes like this ever get through is beyond me.
We are funding our own famine.
@@alanpatterson2759 I hope people are waking up to this 'scheme' to starve us and freeze us to death
@@Erectmygreenhouse Like to see the penny drop but it's slow going!
Strongly agreed - don’t take the bribe Harry!
Government don't think ....Infact they don't think at all......God save the farmers.
Absolutely insane taking land out of production when we arnt very food secure as it is 🙄, love your videos harry 👍
Yeah. It's Agenda 2030 rolling into action. This winter will be fun if you can't afford to heat your home or boil a kettle
Actually it makes perfect sense. Increase the distance to the food source and use your control of the supply line logistics to control the population. Demonic but rational.
@anglovirtual It's all planned. Reduce emissions. What about CO2 that's essential for photosynthesis? Ban that. What about cows? Ban them. Honestly I think they want us dead
Do people eat rape seed? Surely we would be better off growing food we actually eat
It doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I hoped that once Brexit went through, we would be getting back to proper farming, eating whatever is in season and not relying on stuff coming in from across the world. I know we can't be 100% self sufficient but working with countries who want our produce and us buying theirs works much better .
As a former farmer I despair at the government's encouragement to take land out of food production. Look at what of lack of self sufficiently has done to the energy market, prices doubling and doubling again.
I'm glad we've got you Harry, hope your videos can at least highlight the insanity unfolding. Hope someone in a position of power is watching and listening.
They won't do anything it's part of the plan.
@@alanpatterson2759 You might be right. I've emailed my MP with a link to this vid but I'm not holding my breath as Andrew Bridgen is my MP.
@@Banditmanuk The plan has been a long time in the making, i'd post a link but it'll get deleted.

@@Banditmanuk From the interviews ive seen with Andrew Bridgen, he seems to speak a fair bit of sense, he was against the lockdowns & covid restrictions.
What a waste of land when the whole world is threatened by food shortages government is so out of touch ..... excellent video by the way 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
So protect the Environment at all costs. Lets be totally reliant on food from overseas. Can anyone else see where this is headed. Dockers and Haulage holding the Country to ransome.
Scotland chopped down 14million trees to put in windfarms and now they're wanting to import food on industrial tankers. This has never been about the environment, there's people with certain investments making a lot of money.
“… Dockers and Haulage holding the Country to ransom”. Err, and potentially held to ransom by the countries doing the actual growing!
@@sh-hg4eg i expect that most of the trees was turned into forest products ie sent to saw mills/paper mills/turned into wood chip and then replacing coal in a power plant.
@@TheStefanskoglund1 a side from the absurdity of chopping down millions of trees for "sustainability", anything more than a cursory glance at wind turbines shows that they are expensive, use a lot of oil in maintenance, have poor efficency, harm wildlife and the resin based propellers cannot be recycled.
As I said, this isn't really about sustainability because the current technology isn't sustainable.
@@sh-hg4eg the blade's material can be reused in a fair bit of applications - anywhere recycled plastics is used.
They are expensive but so is steam turbine plant.
The trees was probably used in the forestry industry.
but 14 millions .....
i found the number. That was the number cut down between 2000 and 2020 before building the wind parks in that time period.
How sweet…supermarket shelves empty, but at least we have pretty fields of wildflowers to look at…🤦🤦
And just wait until farmers have to b paid more for growing crops!
I had a smirk to myself at a local farmer on line saying that contrary to all the flak farmers have to take he had grown a field of wildflowers just to brighten the place up. In another area so many photographers turned up and parked their cars just anywhere that the road was blocked,and the farmer was held up in the jam.
We're growing a hybrid rye and may start drilling towards the end of next week.
KWS have some great looking hybrid winter varieties.
We're drilling rye instead of Linseed and even as an alternative to OSR in the future.
We'll try it and let you all know how it goes.
It's been around 300 years since rye has returned to this particular part of Herefordshire, known as the Ryelands.
Interesting, good luck with that.Dont they make Whisky from Rye? We should have a good Herefordshire whisky.
Seems crazy land is going out of production, farmers are not only stewards of the land but also of our food production, please get involved and say more, followed you since EVO 26.
Hrrm, everyone wants to see a road built, a new super market area or another development - where ? ON good land for agriculture.....ooppppss.
Great news that you've got the '22 harvest in safe and well...but Harry, please think long and hard about these government "inducements"...we all need to eat, and we rely massively on you farmers to be able to do so...I know farmers, and I know that times are very tough right now, and us consumers need to be prepared to pay a bit more for our food in order to keep the supply coming...keep up the great work Harry, and all other farmers.
We all need to eat, but we certainly don't need to waste as much food as we do at the moment. With 9.8 million tonnes of food wasted n the Uk and the average family spending nearly £500 every year on food that is thrown away surely there is an option to reduce output and allow space for nature
@@alexandermajor6467 absolutely agree. Food wastage is astonishing and so much of it is totally avoidable.
The problem is we have a government that refuses to close down all of our tax havens and tax loopholes that we all maintain for the rich, so that anyone with a couple of million or more can exclude themselves from the system that the rest of us have to live under, and avoid paying any tax. If taxes were fairly collected, there would be no problem giving everyone a decent life, enough for all our state funding and plenty left over to 'repair the roof while the sun shines'. Such a horrible bunch of self serving, over privileged and out of touch twerps we've never had before, and its about to get much worse!
@@davidfisher5507 I had a short gig ina staff canteen, I think I threw away 30-40% of all the food on offer. I was disgusted, you truely have a point.
@@alexandermajor6467 Maybe look at the type of foods thrown away.
On the cover of F.W !!!!! I will make sure that I have had my dinner before I look at the centrefold .....
Didn’t know FW had a Swimsuit Edition.
Given that the UK already imports 45% of its food and climate change will make crop yields less predictable, taking land out of food production seems like a risky thing to do.
Not to mention that 45% will only increase as the U.K. population increases……an extra 8m since 2002. Project that forward another ten or twenty years.
Indeed it is risky. The thing is that as many countries are doing the same thing where is then imported food going to come from? And more importantly, at what cost?
Not risky; absolutely idiotic, to put it politely
Decisions from on high coming from a group of people who are either detached from reality or are trying to induce a global food crisis
Yep, all part of the managed narrative.
Perhaps we ought to focus on minimising food waste
Guess we all need to get used to eating flowers and
trees then!!! What is up with this government, encourage and support farmers to grow crops not trees
Great video. Can we have more Stanley please!
Great video Harry. It is bonkers that those lunatics in parliament think it is a good idea to reduce the amount of crops that are grown in the UK and are paying farmers to do that. What about food security for our country? Its madness! They should be paying farmers to grow OSR, wheat, barley, oats etc to secure food production.
Crazy policies from crazy people, cutting food production when there are world wide shortages is utter madness.
All part of the plan
@@jackprocter8694 Yes lots cant see it tho.
Always count of Harry to keep us in touch and informed! I love too that this is not a job or a hobby… it’s a passion! 👍
Ha! It is a passion as it’s impossible to predict what next harvest is going to be like and that’s what keeps it so addictive.
Nice drone use in the vid Harry.. There's something magical about a British summer harvest. Your vid captured that brilliantly
I think the government may have dropped a bollock with the re wilding thing. Like you explained they never appreciate that what farmers do now doesn’t reach the consumer until next harvest. I think we will have tough times to come with importing many foods and ingredients and sourcing closer to home will be very important part of 2023 if the world continues on course. You Ofcourse must do what’s right for your farming enterprise so serious decisions to be made. Great update thanks
Surely something is not right if you have to pay someone to do in essence SFA. It's not the Gov's money in the first place.
Harry, your Farm videos just get better and better! Love them. Maybe like others on here I got into your (excellent) Garage vids, but now eagerly await the next Farm vid. I'm not a farmer but always learn so much from you about farming and how complex it is. You ought to advise our (useless) government!! In both your Garage and Farm vids your enjoyment for what you do is palpable. Many thanks for the great work!
I really love your videos Harry, you are concise, clear and not least an education. Thank you for putting in the effort to film and produce farming content. Thank you.
I just hope there's enough food next year for us poor folk. The government appear to be utterly clueless.
Really enjoying and learning from your bulletins, Harry. I live not far from you and it's great to keep up with how the harvest is going. But what really made my day is discovering that you have an English Bull Terrier. We used to have them. Wonderful dogs, if a bit of a handful.
Don't do it Harry! Don't fall into the trap of wanting to get rid of all our farmers & be dependent on buying from abroad!! You keep farming my friend & sod the W.E.F. etc...
Absolutely 100% agree... it's a complete nonsense paying our farmers to grow wild flowers etc etc.... we should be encouraging them to such an extent we're self sufficient in food... but no instead we'll be left with the begging bowl to other countries !!
Where will all the 'imported' food come from when all the other countries are cutting back as well? Look at Holland - But it's all for the environment - Bullshit.
Exactly. Feck them.
As ever short sighted politicians ruining everything as they have done for decades.
@@malcolmholmes893 Think the other countries are in the same boat, Netherlands for one.
Don’t live too far from you. We only had 1mm rain today. But last week enjoyed 50mm in *that* storm.
Hope you got enough rain today for the OSR…
Good stuff! Rained here today (Surrey) 0.0001mm at most! We're desperate!
Very good Harry well done
Interesting times ahead.
What is the sense of stopping farmers producing cereal crops locally especially after how we seen the affect of the war in Ukraine this year has had on food supply and price. Wanting people to reduce animal's too while parts of forests in Brazil are been cleared for to make land for more animals. It's lucky this government wasn't in charge from 39 to 45 during WW2 as they don't seem to have a clue about food and farming and keeping supplies local.....
The difference is those politicians took their duties seriously and responsibly and everyone worked for a victory result.Now they just work for their own enrichment.
It seems completely bonkers to be taking land out of production.
With rapidly rising prices, the last thing the government should be reducing is supply. It's as though this is a deliberate policy to impoverish the population. And it's the poor who will suffer most.
All of this was put into motion last year. Farmers knew it was a bit nuts but it made financial sense for farmers to take the environmental schemes up, especially those farming on marginal land. The events of 2022 have shown it was not a good policy, as it can only drive food prices higher but the horse has bolted now, so I can't see it changing..
@@harrysfarmvids I guess it might just be another nail in the government coffin.
@@neilaspinall5005 yep or in our coffin ⚰️
My understanding is that farmers are paid to set land aside to safeguard the health of the soils and biodiversity, as well as keeping carbon in the ground. It is a little short-termist to see it purely as declining food production. The UK has no problem producing food, it just uses a lot of land to produce food inefficiently - mostly animal farming. It also exports a lot of that meat. I'm not a vegetarian but for food security the best thing we can do is replace animal farming with crops.
@@finnjon5049 you're not a farmer either.
Where do you get this BS from - all the other meddling armchair experts presumably
Farmers weekly shot up in price very good article 👍
You said it at the end you love farming,growing crops working with them and harvesting them that’s what it’s all about hats off to you and long may it continue
Good to see Stanley on the video!
The amount of land being taken out of production is really quite worrying given the current problems with food supply globally. Not just the UK doing this either, it is happening across the world so if they haven't thought this through it's going to cause famine the likes of which we haven't seen in over hundred years. Given the complete mess they have made of energy supply I am not filled with much confidence.
Pretty sure they've thought it through, not sure what the plan is but hungry people are alot more malleable.........
@@iainbaker2742 I'm not so sure they seem not to be able to think anything through which is why everything is currently screwed up and they keep changing things making it worse. Don't be so sure about hungry people being malleable, when the food runs out people get angry pretty quick, they are currently worried about mass rioting this winter. If people are hungry they are far from malleable.
If that's good news, the EU has suspended some of the unplanted area requirements since the war to ease the food shortage
@@petermolnar8667 Makes no difference now, look at Holland where they are effectively making farming uneconomic. The most productive farmers in Europe are being destroyed by their own government. These farmers export all over Europe so all that food will be gone in a year or two.
@@schrodingerscat1863 my point was that its being done deliberately, but it's hard to know exactly what's the agenda. My best guess, it's a power grab by the elite (ie the great reset) with a bit of depopulation thrown in for good measure......Globalism and the WEF do not seem to be good for democracy, it feels like we're being deliberately lead into one crisis after another.
Time flies by. I can't believe you've had the Land Rover for 12 months already. I absolutely love your channel.
It's great you are bringing the difficulties that Farmers are facing with the ludicrous situation that the government are implementing on the agricultural industry.. Just crazy.. Everyone needs to understand what is going on
"Who controls the food supply controls the people" - Henry Kissenger
I have a feeling we are going to see a lot more schemes to stop farmers from farming in the future. Food production will become a global endeavour that will fall either directly or indirectly under the control of the WEF. We're still in the early stages but there seems to be a concerted push right across the world to control the food supply.
@@alanpatterson2759 so you've stolen a march on everyone else and started growing your own?
@@baldyslapnut. No point where i live people do have allotments but hungry people will take it anyway. You can forage.
@@alanpatterson2759 Absolutely right, a friend of mine had the stuff he grew on his allotment stolen on a regular basis. He gave up in the end.
@anglovirtual People can't be that incompetent all the time! There at some point has to be a corrective/turning point in a competent direction!
Harry I find this channel fascinating and really enjoy learning about farming!
Good to see Stanley taking interest Harry 👏😀
Another good one. Thanks.
It must be grand to be finished - here in the Sask prairie we are about a week away from starting!!

Great update Harry. Keep them coming and well done.
Brilliant again harry. What are we going to do for food uk government. I heard about this from my local farmers, but hearing your story about neighbours is huge worry. Surely the press need to play their part and do something positive for a change. Keep planting harry, and we’ll keep watching you proudly watching your boy.
thank you

Keep going Harry 👍👍

I used to rely on The Archers for my farming knowledge… not any more !! See you in The Bull Harry for a pint of Shires 😀
Good man Harry. Farmers should farm.
Harry, please keep growing crops. There will be a food shortage if all farmers turn to rewilding.
Grow "Flowers not Food" thats just incredible for an island
Surely we all need to grow food on this little island the way food security is going.I am all for protecting the environment but surely we all need food
congrats Harry....you threw the dice, and this time you won.
No guts, no glory 😉
And here in the central wheatbelt of Western Australia we are harvesting for usually four to five weeks solid if we have no rain…
So farmers are going to be cropping less next year due to fields being taken out of production, thus food prices are going to be even higher next year?
Best summer we have had for years 👍
Greetings from 🇨🇦. Congratulations on finishing harvesting! I often wonder if harvest would have the same thrill and satisfaction if I had won a huge Lottery and continued to farm? I think not.
Here in Western Canada we are just about to “Start”harvest!! Average crops I suspect.
Sadly my F Type and E type are Red and don’t match the Green of Combines. So I won’t be on the cover of any Farm papers!!
Cheers from 🇨🇦
I hope you keep farming the politicians have no idea on food production
Always a fascinating insight, thanks Harry
The voice of reason. Good for you Harry!
Always interesting to watch your farm videos harry. I came across the car videos first but find the farming ones to be great. Also have the same questions about the government coming up with these schemes to get farmers off the land. Wondering how they will manage to smoke you guys off the land? We have a farm but its in Thailand. I will be watching with interest to see if the government does anything similar there. The country just seems to be a food bowl for so many other countries.
Good to hear! Meanwhile in Australia our last wheat harvest was our most difficult ever. Started in October and finished just before New Years eve. We had wayyy too much rain, it was an absolute nightmare.
Hope it'll be better this year! I still can't wrap my head around how much difference there is in timing, your harvest seems to happen a couple months later compared to us here in Hungary :) (there should be some database with all the countries and their climate, farming conditions, etc... I don't even know where it's possible to do 2 crop "cycles" a year)
Just watched the video to the end. You comment about being really interested in farming, watching the crops grow, taking some risk and ultimately harvesting the crop versus the "hobby farmer" who may have been fortunate to have money elsewhere to invest in land and then decides to re-wild or grow legumes funded by Government. To my mind Government and its Departments have become bloated , slow and can only react to events and their pace. They need to be more agile and be proactive in the best interests of UK plc. All root crops are going to have lower yields as well as cereal crops being affected. DEFRA could have done so much more to help UK food supply.
We need to start looking into keeping food within the country, so we don't have to import as much. Looking at the state of the planet atm we could be at a crisis with food.
Plus we have to feed MILLIONS more, every year.
@@michaelfraser5723 exactly. The entire system they're heading for is completely unsustainable and they have the audacity to bring it all in under the guise of sustainability.

Several heaps of farm saved seed (FSS) in the barn tested and disease free ready for next year's crop. No rain here (South East Cambs) so far. No germination of volunteer cereals or weed seeds yet which is needed. If things don't change quickly we could be 100% spring seeding of oats and barley for harvest 23.
Meant to be some rain tomorrow - of course you might as well stick your head out of the window than trust the Met Office.
We had 90 minutes of torrential rain here in North London last week - everything flooded. Then it just went away and back to muggy heat.
I hope you get some rain! Take care!
These are really interesting. The detail you go into is also welcome after the more generalist stuff on TV. I feel I am learning, thank you.
Great video as always.
Farmers weekly was my favourite paper as a child in South Wales in the forties
Control the food control the people
I'm not so sure about that one, hunger is a great mover,usually towards something sharp,or that goes bang.
Hi Harry. There's been sooo much tourist interest in the wild flowers around your farm, it got me thinking about commercialising it.....like the maize maze; wellbeing walk, maybe! What was left of the wall on the A40 was totally decimated, so I imagine this will need to be managed better next year - but embrace it rather than put up fences.
The farmer will be fined by Natural England because of the damage to the stone wall, hence the barbed wire fence going up. These wildflower areas are for wildlife, not for tourists.
I had to remove several wildlife refuge areas on my farm because the areas (which were around arable fields) turned into dog-walks for locals, which completely defeated the point of them. Hence why I returned the fields back to food production.
If I had allowed people to continue to walk around the fields, not only would I be fined by Natural England, I risk them potentially turning into footpaths, if walkers said they had been using them without resistance from the land owner. This could potentially halve the value of my land, which is why my mortgage provider insists I stop people walking where there isn't a footpath..
@@harrysfarmvids got it.. thanks.
Hi from North Dakota, USA. So you’ll have 50 ac less next year, are you renting any new ground for next year? You mentioned 300 ac harvested this year, so going to have 250 ac for next harvest? Losing 1/6 of the ground hurts….
I don't get it do the government not want farmers to produce food ? Beyond crazy
The WEF and Klause Schwab run the show,he says we will eat bugs and like it.
Really enjoy your Farm videos Harry; concise and informative. Well done for raising issues that the non-farming community wouldn’t usually be aware of. Good on you for continuing with crops; I find it very worrying that so much land is being taken out of use for food production
We live in London and generally default to supermarkets for our basic ingredients- flour, dairy, meat (I know, I know), though until now we've been borderline lucky enough to be able to afford and appreciate occasional 'artisan' stuff (mostly for the local butcher, who also stocks a bit of dairy). We're by no means rich and we're not snobs, and we're very aware that we'll have to tighten our belts in all sorts of ways and think ourselves very effing lucky that we're not starving or freezing (I hope). The current media is either bemoaning the effect of the drought on crops, or blaming farmers for river pollution. I don't envy you. So here's the question; What's the number one thing a consumer could do just at the moment to support your cause? Cheers.
I understand...farmers like to farm.
Cheers Harry really enjoy the in-site.
Hi Harry i would like to hear your point of view about the Farmers protest in Holland at the moment please
Sounds like a good harvest, Harry, I’m happy it’s gone well. I’m sure Stanley was a huge help as well lol.
I believe that with so many prices going up and the government paying farmers not to farm along with other problems, the small farmer is going to come into his/her own. Especially organic farmers and dry land farmers who have mostly had to rely on the secondary distribution market due to the appearance of produce, the smaller availability and distribution issues. I am hearing that with all the problems that are plaguing the big commercial growers, that alternative farming methods are carrying smaller growers over the speed bumps. Of course, a lot comes down to profit. But the profits are fair according to those growers, and they are not reliant on so many of the inputs that commercial farmers are. That is a relief, because as certain crops get more scarce, many small farms will be tapped to make up the difference. Prices may reflect this. Thank you for the video. A real pleasure listening to you.
very precise and clear to understand , with real enthusiasm , and common sense = with a lot of exotica thrown in ;;;
Always enjoyable and informative Thanks Harry
Fascinating and I think I have been on a farm three times in my life. Cough nearly 50……..imagine what guys with thirty years experience could advise or run the government side of things instead of jack who has been health secretary before he thought was doing a crap job.
Ha you took your Testarossa onto the field with your combine ! Class farming Harry !!
That's nuts putting land aside for rewilding we need to go in the other direction and put more land into food production, I've no problems with GM or gene-edited crops if it produces higher yields without the need for fertilisers pesticides and or any other chemicals being used on the land.
You don't need GM. As unpopular as it is to say, we're reaching a point in which it needs to just be said out of the reality of the situation. We just need to stop bringing in records amounts of people. 80% of population growth, for the last two decades, has been the result of external factors. Last year saw a record of just under 1million visas into the UK.
The infrastructure just can't cope with such artificially inflated strain for such a prolonged period.
