  • Join James as we continue to get ourselves ready for harvest. We are cutting the verges to uncover ditches that could cause an issue for the combines and chaser bins during harvest. We put the final steps in to fully implement the NFU health and safety audit and we try diagnose the issues with Chris' broken transit van.

    That is an impeccably tidy farm. Credit to all involved

    You are completely right about footpath and bridle paths, a bridle path was for Stallions to be led by the bridle to other farms to cover the mares back in the day before tractors . So no need for them now 👍🏻

    Have to say Mr Peck. I am really enjoying the content you are providing, looking at all the aspects of running your business. I am from a farming background and although i have not been involved in farming/harvesting for years, the excitement for the season still remains within.
    I liken it to the sea with sailors, i think it gets in your blood. Carry on the struggle growing our food, battling with weather/councils and ill informed opinion 👍

    I was on a large farming estate for forty years 27 as manager and a lifelong farmer. We managed to move one footpath in all those years to a much more pleasant and sensible walk around the perimeter. Like this farm we kept everything in tip top condition and tried to help and keep the public onside. Local councils adversely were impossible to keep up with.

    O dear me, James you are trying to apply common cense to the direction of footpaths, you are offering a far nicer place to walk and enjoy the countryside, you will see far more around the edge of a field, rather than stomping across the middle, both me and you can understand that, BUT I fear you will have stiff opposition, I have to say I loved what you said about the road side verge cutting (better redo that they will think it was us)🤣🤣

    Was once told a foot path across a field had to be 4 feet wide so undertakers could walk from church to church carrying a coffin Nice to see you carry out verge mowing and keeping things tidy and safe

    You are 100% right on the archaic footpath byelaws. Crazy in this day and age.
    Oh, and "empty the dog out"...😅😅 that had me howling with laughter 😅!!
    Please keep up the excellent work here; your channel has such a breadth of conte t...makes it extremely interesting and informative.
    And funny too 😂
    Thanks!

    Totally agree with your footpath comments, I was a contractor for many years surfacing and cutting back growth on council countryside footpaths in the northeast, the truth is no one including the council want public footpaths through the middle of fields, it’s just that much paperwork and consulting meetings involved it’s not worth the effort, loving that you have regular videos coming out now, keep up the great work ❤

    @chrislee2221 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Well done James excellent update, although I am now out of main stream farming and just run a small holding in our semi retirement I still remember the build up to harvest like trimming gateways etc, I used to do a circuit of all combinable crops with the sprayer which was fitted with 2 nozzles set at 45° on the end of one boom so killing the bottom metre of the hedge making it far easier and better for the combine on the hedge round. Good to see a modern farm business taking H&S seriously. All good stuff.

    the 2.0 wet belt fords, check the oil strainer they get blocked up after the belt delaminates and then the engine starves of oil 👍 hope you get it going again soon guys

      I also believe there is a recall work for this area timing and pulleys. My work van (Transit Custom) has to go to the Dr's soon to have the work done.

    Pity about the footpath application. Sometimes I'm a bit of a stickler for history, but at the same time I can see the hassles of paths crossing fields and the work to reinstate them. Good to see you manage the headlands as well as the permissive paths.

    @AdamHuntPhotography หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Another Great Video . .. Why don't you get a rear offset flail which you offset and tilt, like the Kuhn TBE & TBES flails. Surely that's much better than a fixed front flail for doing gate ways & ditches etc?

    Farm nearby has footpath across his field and also another Farm in the next village has a public footpath straight through their Farm. Sharing your work place with the ramblers 😂😂 nice one team 👍

    Hi James , seeing you looking at your tow straps you might want to look up Yankum ropes, very efficient.

    I live at Barton upon Humber, North Lincolnshire, some years ago, one of our local farmers successfully got a footpath moved from across one of his fields to follow the field boundary. It met with a bit of opposition from the ‘annual footpath walking’ brigade, but once moved was met with appreciation from dog walkers that they didn’t get wet legs from walking through the crop. Sounds like you need to be applying a bit more pressure to your council. You will get there … eventually great content about the daily activities of PX Farms. 👍

    I watch every farming u tube channel and there great but u are doing a great job of explaining everything keep it up . My boss is building a super farm in chipping in Lancashire priddict build costs are in the millions . As for the grass margins u will always have trouble with that because folk don't like being told were to walk 😂😂

  • @casperghst42
    @casperghst42 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The problem with farming and foodpaths (they used to roads) is that you remove them to get bigger fields and some point there will be no food paths left. Except for the grass around the +200 hectare fields.

    • @ZboeC5
      @ZboeC5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      In the modern age there shouldn't be footpaths through fields, why would you even want to expose yourself to modern farming chemicals anyway? The pesticides, fertilizers, etc right...no sane person should want to do that anyway. A field isn't the place to be messing around in.

    Just watched for the first time ever PX farms video. Title why do we need 12 trucks.
    Tell U what these seems like difficult people to work for radio fitted to all farm vehicles to make sure everything is busy Al the time.
    Cameras fitted to inform driver if there's traffic so they can take another route to avoid being in traffic.
    So tight that every second the driver is on the payroll they want their pennies worth. So tight. Can't be many people stay here to long.

    I can’t believe a 150hp wouldn’t pay for itself in your operation. Lots of jobs which 400hp is overkill

    • @adrianchetwynd1334

      For low hour use a low hour pre DEF tractor would likely have zero depreciation and would save fuel compared to 400hp high depreciation tractor.
