GRASSMEN are the fast-paced, global agriculture phenomenon whose video content and merchandise are recognised worldwide. The business was started in 2009 by current director Gareth Gault, known to fans as ‘Donkey’. His love and passion for machinery allowed him to experiment with cameras and upload content to TH-cam. To his surprise, a large following soon developed and the niche in the market for real-life, documentary, farming and machinery action made it possible to drive the brand forward.
We at GRASSMEN, pride ourselves on providing an exclusive look into agricultural manufacturers, meeting real, working farmers, showing and demonstrating tractors and machinery through all seasons such as silage and slurry and ultimately educating and entertaining our fans.
If you love all things agriculture from top manufacturers such as John Deere, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, JCB, Land Rover and many many more, come and join #teamgrassmen, we would love to have you!

[@KiwiJim13]

The real question is it a voluntary sale or his he being pressured by the bank and finance companies?

[@Grassmen]

Does the answer to that question make a difference tho? Does the answer make anyone more or less likely to purchase?

Why he selling

[@AbcdEfgh-zp1sn]

Must have realised there is no money in contracting. The farmer gets grants left right and centre sitting on a farm they inherited while contractor beg borrows and steal for a life of hardship and no return

[@Grassmen]

He wants to focus more on the farming side

[@AbcdEfgh-zp1sn]

​@@CareFactor00it's not bitterness it's just the reality of the situation. Contractors have to take on huge financial risk, have far more employees which carrys risk .generally they have young staff in big gear on public roads another massive risk. The risk simply isn't worth the reward
