- Hopefully ive not broken anything, combining spring barley and then the worst of the wheat, bailers going, combines going, forklift and tractors too. Farm on
My name is Crawford and I’m a farmer.
Being a farmer is more than a job; it’s a way of life. The good days can involve bringing new life onto the farm or sunny days outdoors whilst on others it's dealing with machinery breakdowns and on the worst days, sometimes animal deaths.
Farming can be isolating at times - away from the busy streets and city life - so this platform brings you closer to the inner workings showing the highs and lows and everything in between.
I hope to bring some context to how the food ends up on your plate, from your Sunday roasts to morning porridge and even the tulips on your kitchen table. Hopefully a bit of agricultural education along the way.
This video captures the latest goings on including crop management and our efforts to increase sustainability and reducing our carbon footprint.

Lucky driving the combine my dad still won't let me drive the combine....
Also look up Stewie from family guy saying wheat thins that's what you sound like lol.
Have a good one
The reel will typically go 15% faster than the forward speed of the combine. Helps to flick the barley into the table.
your explanation of what your harvestor does was great, well done
Hi Crawford, I would not recomend pulling the hand brake on a moving land rover as you will smash the gearbox, propshafts, diffs.
Close bottom sieve by 2 mm should solve awn problem as double thrashes it through returns auger
I wouldnt pull the handbrake on a land rover. They dont pull the breaks on they have a transmission break. Great vid tho keep up the good work
Cracking video bud 👌👌🏴
Cheers
That defender does look good
Great days harvest, nice to see you enjoying the combined, I always thought the days passed quickly when on the combined, no rushing round with trailers and trying to find time to push the heap up just steady away up and down, great times.
Aye fairly enjoyed it
Well done
Great video stay humble, its refreshing. Be interesting to have a dig to look at soil structure and even compare soil tests of the spots where you chop straw against where you carted the straw off
Cracking video again. Love seeing the combine working.
Another good video 👏 combine looks like it just floats over the land 🤌 hope you get to 10 first 🙌
Great video Crawford I drove combines for years but gave up farming the last combine I drove was a lexion 480 a absolute beast of a combine in its day the defender is a brilliant machine
Cant beat them
Cracking video mate 👍
Cheers
Just watched josh video he has just over 9 thousand subscribers great video as always
We are coming in hot
Great video Crawford
Cheers
No marks on the combine after you’ve had a shot. In my book that’s classed as successful training day 😀
Not that you can see :)
Remember looking at the burner on the a grain dryer thinking how awesome it was..
FIRE 🔥
You need to go to knockhill for practice at handbrake turning
Great explanation of harvesting. I’m going to record some videos like this over the winter ahead of next season. Great video!
👌🏽
👌👌👌
👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Was at the farm shop "to go" on Sat, guess it was you running the trailer sitting waiting between unloads editing.
Yes that was me 👍🏼 did you enjoy?
@@CrawfordsFarm1 coffee was 👍and really handy. Good to see the retail growing.
Need a lend of that keen lab for the pheasants shooting session lol
Get her trained and more than welcome 🤣
@@CrawfordsFarm1 shooting season starts October the first that lad most definitely be a good gun dog and fairly easy to train
@@CrawfordsFarm1 pup's would be worth a pound or 2
You can change the speed of the reels on most combines so it will all depend if its faster or slower than the speed of travel
👌🏽
Afternoon
Evening
Do you have your own butcher shop and ie you do can we see it Crawford? It would be great to see your other workers if they would agree. How many acres are all your farms and how many are crop fields? Thanks Crawford. Still my favorite youtube channel Crawford!!
Yes will show it, farming 1300
Or so, arable 1100
Nice vid the reel can be adjusted manualy
👌🏽
See Hillstown Farm youtube channel was at your place . Looks well.
Just saw 👌🏽👌🏽
Beer name the pesky wooly bandits
I think he watched one of your other video’s where you was talking about how you don’t drive the combine 😂
😅
one of the best jobs combining. good idea not to run on straw rows
There should be a way to correct the moisture to the drier. Ask your Claas person.
Also yep 100% all fine until it goes wrong. There are some apps available for optimising combines. I’ll send some on Instagram
Yeh can calibrate it easy enough but just know its .8% out 😅
How do you pronounce whip? Ps really enjoy your vids! Good luck with the race to 10,000
. Good video. How's kev getting on with the fent
Liking it 👌🏽
How did they manage with horses.always rushing.
No idea must have been tough
Trialed sprayers they stopped.
Crawford, Where can i get one of those hats? hows it going Been Out mtb For 2 hours :D (Mtb -Mountain biking)
Have you had a complete drivetrain upgrade on your defender if not a handbrake turn is not possible as it an old transmission drum brake you can power slide it round on snow and ice but drive shafts and props don’t like it.
Locks the wheels tho
how many hectors do you have in barley
Former farm (sheep and arable) worker here. How can a beast be too big? Surely the heavier it is the more its worth? Unless you mean its age as after a certain age they can't enter the human food chain. I can't remember if that was due to BSE or Foot & Mouth.
Gets fattier, also steaks get too big and become to expensive for customers. Want a nice compact steak with not mega fat on the beast
@@CrawfordsFarm1 A T bone steak is never too big, yummy🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩
@@philipgraham6980 Any steak can never be too big but I guess if they're selling to the people who supply ASDA then consideration needs to be given on what their customer base can afford. Now if they were to sell to the people who supply M&S or Waitrose then it could pay to have bigger beats.
@@liambarker6953 the cattle are for their own farm shop
Which of your many enterprises is the most profitable
The magic mushroom farm
@@CrawfordsFarm1 Can you show us something about it sometime
Did you enjoy your training today the guy must think highly of you to leave you on your own to get on with it with a combine only 2 years old
Cant do too much damage…
Should be 5 - 15% faster depending on conditions
👍🏼
Try saying “cool whip” ps watch Seth Mcfarlane on Graham Norton show
Reel should be a bit faster than the combines forward speed
👌🏽
Hi
Hello
@@CrawfordsFarm1 How are you
You say hweat when it's wheat lol
