Hi, I’ve subscribed to quite a few farming channels over the years and now I’ve come across your one. I can’t believe how professional you are and dedicated to your set up especially all the way down to employee welfare. My question is do you do a farm Tour
I'm retired now, I've been a lorry driver most of my working life. If I didn't have a deaf and blind Jack Russell, I would renew my LGV licence and seek employment from you. You run a first class operation and look after your employee's really well. Much respect and best wishes for the future.
Absolutely the best inside view on large scale farming with some normal humour thrown in . Shows that pressure is scaleable .You are industrial gardeners,,,,,,, big inputs ,big overheads, all gambling on the mother nature and the futures markets . Good Harvest, Thank you for providing honest home grown food for Britain .
less subscribers than a certain farmer in lincolnshire but you get more than double the views. Best farming channel out there, keep the videos coming please
James, I’m really enjoying your videos. Not only am I learning an awful lot from you and your staff’s very descriptive updates, but you are also very entertaining. I laughed out loud a couple of times to this update! Brilliant and I hope your subscriber count keeps rising quickly.
I’m addicted to this channel. You’re not a farmer you’re a CEO of a large company. You are so organised and on top of everything. It would be great to have a walk round with your machinery. That plough is a beast. You probably have the only Vogue in the country that goes off road 😂.
I have a feeling this channel will grow. The youtube algorithm priorities videos that keep viewers engaged. If new content leads to higher watch times, likes, comments, and shares, it signals to the algorithm that the content is valuable. Keep up the great videos. Greetings from Dundalk, Ireland.
Do like your views on health and safety and the welfare of your staff, I’m sure there’s a lot of envious people out there who would like to be employed by you, keep up the good work 👍
James I was driving through France yesterday afternoon and pulled up in Lidl in Miramont de Guyenne and guess what, I parked under solar panels in their car park only hours after watch your video! Welcome shade for the car and generating power all using the same sqft of land.
Another thoroughly interesting video, the only trouble is that these make me want to work in farming even more than yesterday! 😂 you’re a good people person James, I love the way you speak to the staff, they’re made to feel appreciated and a important part of the team 👍🏻👍🏻
Incredible podcast, only just found you very informative and entertaining. Not many people ploughing good to see soil being turned over, very impressive on the Cat. The woofler was a revelation all the fancy tedders and turners and you still can’t beet an old fashioned bit of kit. Thanks I’ve learnt a lot.
Great to share your thoughts and daily tasks. I have read on the horsch magazine that you have studied at Writtle college, where I’ve been couple of time for parties while I was working at a farm nearby. I am a French farmer and I’ll keep watching your videos with good interest. 👍
You got us nosy Lincolnshire farmers hooked first thing in the morning phones will be ringing saying did you see how much is electric bill was😂😂 really enjoyed this
Best of luck with the wheat. Been glorious in Wiltshire today. Thanks for the comments on CTF 🚜👍🏻 Use kitchen towel or cotton wool to germinate your seeds.
Another brilliant video which gives an insight to the year farmers are having. Waiting for the wheat now in Yorkshire barley has done moderately ok 500 acres out of 1000 of rape have done ok hopefully the wheat harvest and hopefully the spring barley does well. Be another week for wheat all being well been a busy 10 days it has been glad they new combine is doing its job right for me.
Your explanations are brilliant - I have zero connection to farming other than it's interesting. The details you go into is so informative. 25k by September - easy.
Hi folks , Hi James and your great team 👍 your videos 📹 are so interesting you have some fabulous 👌 ideas to progress and we can have a laugh along the way . Thank you 🎉🎉🎉
Great video as always, good to see quality ploughing , it annoys me to see a ploughman racing across a field not burying half the stubble etc. Was always told your plough is your first line of weed control. Where we now live in France most super markets have covered car parks and some are now fitting solar panels, makes total sense to us. Keep the wheels (tracks) turning all doing a good job.
speaking of bale loaders, i was invited to see the big bale co south facility, they make transtackers there too, really cool to see them being builtand learn how they work. theyre top quality. really really well built.
Hi another great video keep them coming find them very interesting worked on arable farms for 30 years until I started my own business kind regards John
Great to watch your videos, leads me to reminisce! The passion shown for farming and the environment by you and the whole team is addictive to watch. Maybe you should get a 2850 to put on the topper! Although an IH 956 would be better! Keep up the good work and honest delivery James👍🏻
Never seen sub soiling of 40% before It’s not solely for compaction But I was impressed your actually using a proper sub soiler! I used to tier the bales like a pyramid for stability And I avoided power lines! I do enjoy the content James,I lived over there during the ‘90s and kinda miss the place🤷♂️ Hey that’s creamed honey dude,just put a teaspoon of creamed into the liquid and it will eventually turn creamed
I've just started watching your videos. You have a nice farm and very good setup but the thing I like the most is the fact that when the combines go the wrong way you put a plan in place or when you get squashed by the plow you put a phone plan in place. Great work 👏
Another interesting video James and you couldn’t half see the tramlines, after the field had been ploughed which I was, surprised by and thanks for taking time, to make these videos it your busy schedule 👍👍
Great videos James, we are farming in Shropshire and it’s extremely interesting to see how you guys are getting on over there compared to ourselves. We too have finished winter barley and are currently finishing OSR which for some reason hasn’t died off as quickly as previous years. Wheat will go end of this week w/c 29/7/24 . Look forward to seeing your upcoming videos
I spent 1000’s of hours ploughing over s-t like that , good old Oxfordshire clay , same plough and a 500hp John Deere crawler , your right you need the power to farm that type of ground .
Hi James, Excellent series of videos. I've been in the machinery trade all my life (Dad was in it too) and my elder son is as well. Your comment with Michael Horsch about making Horsch sexy reminded me of when I worked for Lely Import at St. Neots in the late '70's early '80's. We had a sales slogan for a while.."Next to sex I love Lely best" we had stickers with this on and would plant them on unsuspecting Farmers and their wives at the Royal Show and Smithfield. Keep going on the videos, the information is spot on, the humour is great and the weight challenge with cousin Micheal makes me chuckle..perhaps I should join in...currently 90Kg. Cheers, Henry
Hey James, love the attention to detail you take over everything you do, this has to be one of the best managed and run farms in the UK if not the world, your forward thinking and staff management are second to none, a little question if you don’t mind, I’m sure you pay your staff very well but are then on any sort of incentive to get the job done, look after the kit ect ?, great video again looking forward to the next one.
I find kitchen roll works far better than blotting paper and way cheaper. Always germinate my parsnips on damp kitchen roll in a plastic takeaway tub for the veg plot. Great video cheers.
James, were you buying your electricity through Anglia Farmers? We got absolutely stitched up on our electricity for our poultry sheds with them during the Ukraine Crisis, electricity bill went from £10k to £60k+ per year because they hadn’t hedged the price. We bought 70kw of solar and installed it ourselves for exactly the same reason you did.
Never leave the tractor engine running when working at implements .My tractor pto suddenly started itself when i was lifting the slurry pump out of a tank ,had to stop the engine and removed the pto shaft .It stuck in 4 wd as well It needed a new fuse panel as the old panel had corroded on the back over time with dust and moisture here in Northern Ireland. Scary education!
Question, regarding energy usage. Considering you buy expensive electric and kero for the grain hospital and are at their mercy regarding prices, isn't it more than viable to have your own biomass heating and even power generation using the straw for fuel yourselves instead of selling it to the power station? I'm guessing you will say it's down to the capital outlay? Completely agree with the solar panels above car parks, planners could easily include it as a requirement. You want to build a supermarket or retail park then solar covered car parks is part of the planning requirement.
Hi, I'm new to your channel and Im finding it absolutely great. Im not a farmer but I'm finding it all very interesting and have a question about your clay soil. Could you add woodchip supplied by tree surgeons & compost it to add to your clay soil to help break it down & fertilse? Many thanks Peter Greathead.
James just wondering why you plough in between the cereal and the mustard? Looking at the stubble loads you be able to minimum till straight into that next spring? Or is there another reason why you need to plough?
Hiya great channel, just wondering about the solar panels, could you graze around them with the likes of sheep? Are the panel supports strong enough? Thanks
Great videos. Of you on ctf and your plough throws you compacted soil 16 inches (for example) one way surely that damaged soil is no longer in the same place? 🤷♀️
Brilliant video AGAIN guys .... ticking all the boxes for me,including the ending this time 😊 is the mustered seed the only ground you plough for then direct drill everything else? AND do you plant any cover crops till spring planting?
Given the lack of straw this year a d the eye water price, how does the powerstation contract stack up. Serious shortage of wheat straw in north Lincolnshire
Hi, I’ve subscribed to quite a few farming channels over the years and now I’ve come across your one. I can’t believe how professional you are and dedicated to your set up especially all the way down to employee welfare. My question is do you do a farm Tour
This has to be the best farming channel
So informative and a bit of fun too
Keep it up
@thomasforbes8904 certainly one of the top three, that I follow
One of the best farming channels on TH-cam.
I'm retired now, I've been a lorry driver most of my working life.
If I didn't have a deaf and blind Jack Russell, I would renew my LGV licence and seek employment from you.
You run a first class operation and look after your employee's really well.

Great channel, great content and a great team James. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos.
Heartwarming. Interesting. Brilliant. And for you so many challenges. I sincerely wish you guys were running the country.
James, I’m really enjoying your videos. Not only am I learning an awful lot from you and your staff’s very descriptive updates, but you are also very entertaining. I laughed out loud a couple of times to this update! Brilliant and I hope your subscriber count keeps rising quickly.
Great entertainment James - really pleased you have avoided the temptation to grow wild flowers
Hehe, still loving it, every time a machine comes past you got the biggest of smiles…..
I’m addicted to this channel. You’re not a farmer you’re a CEO of a large company. You are so organised and on top of everything. It would be great to have a walk round with your machinery. That plough is a beast.

I love the common sense explanations from James, great, keep going👍

@mshumphries9552 there should be more of the solar car parks, its a win.. win solution
Another great update , nice to hear your barley is all done . Have a nice weekend and be nice to see you in the wheat .
Brilliant love watching px farm video's .keep up the good work
I love the discourse between Cousin Micheal and James.
Another thoroughly interesting video, the only trouble is that these make me want to work in farming even more than yesterday! 😂 you’re a good people person James, I love the way you speak to the staff, they’re made to feel appreciated and a important part of the team 👍🏻👍🏻
Really loved the piece about ploughing, your engagement with the team is so impressive.

Great just great!! Fantastic video looking forward to the next one
Another great video. Farming, farm economics and safety all in one
As always excellent to watch and absorb .
Good to see a proper ploughman making a great job just like my father used to do
Great to share your thoughts and daily tasks. I have read on the horsch magazine that you have studied at Writtle college, where I’ve been couple of time for parties while I was working at a farm nearby.
I am a French farmer and I’ll keep watching your videos with good interest. 👍

Good afternoon
What a fantastic operation you have built up to wat we see on your TH-cam 💪🏻
Interesting and very nicely presented video. Thank you . Miles away from my farming upbringing on a 240 acres mixed farm in the 60/70 's !
Such a great form of content! Keep it up
Your explanations are brilliant - I have zero connection to farming other than it's interesting. The details you go into is so informative. 25k by September - easy.
Great detail on running a big tillage farm and showing the insite of your business 😎
Hi folks , Hi James and your great team 👍 your videos 📹 are so interesting you have some fabulous 👌 ideas to progress and we can have a laugh along the way . Thank you 🎉🎉🎉
What an interesting and informative channel,thank you James.
I have now subscribed!
Another great informative video James👍

Bonjour James
Vidéos tres intéressantes avec de la technique et de la bonne humeur
Bonne récolte
Salutations de France 🇨🇵✌️
Excellent video again 👍🏻
Another great video James this farming shit is so interesting so glad I've found your channel
Good content as always James
Very interesting concepts James. Well done.
speaking of bale loaders, i was invited to see the big bale co south facility, they make transtackers there too, really cool to see them being builtand learn how they work. theyre top quality. really really well built.
Didnt realise they still made Wufflers, remember Dad using a Bamford Wuffler behind a Fordson Major in the 60's.
Hi James really enjoy your videos very informative and thanks for sharing with us.
Wet weather, wooflers and a wandering woof woof 🐶 What to prioritise 😊
Hi another great video keep them coming find them very interesting worked on arable farms for 30 years until I started my own business kind regards John
Good video as always. Terriers all have a the kill switch 😊
Great to watch your videos, leads me to reminisce! The passion shown for farming and the environment by you and the whole team is addictive to watch. Maybe you should get a 2850 to put on the topper! Although an IH 956 would be better! Keep up the good work and honest delivery James👍🏻
Solar over car parks are very common in the south of France and Italy, makes total sense and gives shade/rain cover to vehicles underneath.
Thank you James for another great video cheers 😄
I watch these videos while having my dinner
Great vid I love watching farm vids
Never seen sub soiling of 40% before
It’s not solely for compaction
But I was impressed your actually using a proper sub soiler!
I used to tier the bales like a pyramid for stability
And I avoided power lines!
I do enjoy the content James,I lived over there during the ‘90s and kinda miss the place🤷♂️
Hey that’s creamed honey dude,just put a teaspoon of creamed into the liquid and it will eventually turn creamed
I've just started watching your videos. You have a nice farm and very good setup but the thing I like the most is the fact that when the combines go the wrong way you put a plan in place or when you get squashed by the plow you put a phone plan in place.
Great work 👏
Very professional plowing 💪 strong caterpillar /challenges one my favorite farming video many thanks
best youtube vids out there .awesome kit and machinery. great sence of humor. COUPLE OF WOOFLERS 😂😂 yes definitely have to be careful saying that 😂.
Always enjoy watching your videos, and get a perspective of farming in the UK! Very informative. We farm in Isle of Wight County Virginia.
Another interesting video James and you couldn’t half see the tramlines, after the field had been ploughed which I was, surprised by and thanks for taking time, to make these videos it your busy schedule 👍👍
Love your videos very much appreciate real life content
Brilliant video, so interesting. 👌👍
Great videos James, we are farming in Shropshire and it’s extremely interesting to see how you guys are getting on over there compared to ourselves.

Thanks again for your insight.
Fantastic videos, fair enjoy the content. Thank you 👍
Looking forward to the next edition, I hope the barley and wheat crops stay on the proper side of the ledger when the figures come in😊
I spent 1000’s of hours ploughing over s-t like that , good old Oxfordshire clay , same plough and a 500hp John Deere crawler , your right you need the power to farm that type of ground .

When we get to 90 you can join in!
@@PX_Farms Hurry up I'm down to 89 😁
We have couch grass this year was told to cultivate feild at a slow speed to open out the ground and spray of with roundup
Hey James, love the attention to detail you take over everything you do, this has to be one of the best managed and run farms in the UK if not the world, your forward thinking and staff management are second to none, a little question if you don’t mind, I’m sure you pay your staff very well but are then on any sort of incentive to get the job done, look after the kit ect ?, great video again looking forward to the next one.
Good luck with the wheat harvest, be interesting to see what its yielded this year 👍
Have you seen how people drive in supermarket car parks James? Team Lithuania would have a full time job!
I find kitchen roll works far better than blotting paper and way cheaper. Always germinate my parsnips on damp kitchen roll in a plastic takeaway tub for the veg plot. Great video cheers.
James, were you buying your electricity through Anglia Farmers? We got absolutely stitched up on our electricity for our poultry sheds with them during the Ukraine Crisis, electricity bill went from £10k to £60k+ per year because they hadn’t hedged the price.

It needed a new fuse panel as the old panel had corroded on the back over time with dust and moisture here in Northern Ireland. Scary education!
Grait info
I baled some wheat up that was full of black grass as forage in early July and the black grass seed was viable then
Really enjoy the channel
With CTF, when ploughing, you're moving the tight soil over 14'' I know it will weather but do you consider that.
Enjoyed
Question, regarding energy usage. Considering you buy expensive electric and kero for the grain hospital and are at their mercy regarding prices, isn't it more than viable to have your own biomass heating and even power generation using the straw for fuel yourselves instead of selling it to the power station? I'm guessing you will say it's down to the capital outlay? Completely agree with the solar panels above car parks, planners could easily include it as a requirement. You want to build a supermarket or retail park then solar covered car parks is part of the planning requirement.
Enjoying the updates James, what is the make and model of your plough?
Hi, I'm new to your channel and Im finding it absolutely great.
Im not a farmer but I'm finding it all very interesting and have a question about your clay soil.
Could you add woodchip supplied by tree surgeons & compost it to add to your clay soil to help break it down & fertilse?
Many thanks Peter Greathead.
STRONG MAN JAMES PECK💚💛💚💛🌾🌻
great video realy pleased found your chanel you have an amasing team when do you think you will start wheat thank you for all you do
James. Great video again.
On the ploughing front have you ever considered or tried a slatted mouldboard plough, which we now run on our heavier soils?
I still say ploughing is one of the best ways to go.
@user-dh5on8dc7z sparingly yes ,continously not for me
James just wondering why you plough in between the cereal and the mustard? Looking at the stubble loads you be able to minimum till straight into that next spring? Or is there another reason why you need to plough?
Hiya great channel, just wondering about the solar panels, could you graze around them with the likes of sheep? Are the panel supports strong enough? Thanks
Nice detailed video. Surely solar panels on the shed roof would be a good idea?
Really enjoying the videos James,
Just curious as to why do you Plough now to sow mustard next spring?
Great videos. Of you on ctf and your plough throws you compacted soil 16 inches (for example) one way surely that damaged soil is no longer in the same place? 🤷♀️
Great video James why not try cotton wool for the seeds
Brilliant video AGAIN guys .... ticking all the boxes for me,including the ending this time 😊 is the mustered seed the only ground you plough for then direct drill everything else? AND do you plant any cover crops till spring planting?
Given the lack of straw this year a d the eye water price, how does the powerstation contract stack up. Serious shortage of wheat straw in north Lincolnshire
I only watch this for the cousin banter
Can you show more of the machines working please. Good videos
