AMAZING. I inherited a small field and I'm always trying to figure out how to maintain it without busting the bank - and I constantly look at flails mowers and anything really that might pop up. DELIGHTED to see your video pop up for a suggestion. I have been enjoying your content since you sealed up the old house (field also has a dilapidated barn). Always appreciated your content.
All Krone mowers have Safecut beds and full shaft drive line!, so no chance of doing any damage when topping, also you can mow heavy grass for silage or hay too.
Weanling to beef system here and changed the topper for a mower this year. The speed of re-growth and following grazeouts make all the difference, right into the autumn.
Absolutely agree with you One Hunder Percent on the Mower vs Topper Scenario Adrian . Weve a 1980 Krone 9 foot mower (did have a conditioner on it ) conditioner packed in around 2003 ended up chopping it out the back and keeping the mower itself and top rushes and paddocks/fields with it . To be fair its getting past its best now and are on the look out for a cheapish disc mower . So here's hoping I can find one as good and lasts well enough
Mower is better than topper defintley. But I have to say if u sharpen ur topper before every paddock u will get good results. We got 12 jerseys last year ( non selective graders) took the topper out twice during the summer.
I was told that toppers shred the edge of the grass leaf, a mower with SHARP blades leaves a clean cut edge. It’s all about respiration or transportation of moisture from the grass leaf.
As for the case hi speed starter the only way to go. Mine like many others had the bosh starter turns to slow when cold. Also I have a jf sb2400 great mower. Only problem I have is it doesn't fold in neat. Hangs out a bit. But defo a gear reduction starter the way to go.
The cousin does dairying and he does the exact same system as you with the disc mower over the topper and has the exact same outcome with milk production.
I disagree with most people's thought. That u cant top rough ground with a disc mower. U can top any type of ground with a disc mower u may have to drive slowly. But iv topped the roughest of ground with a disc mower. Iv toped fur bushes with a disc mower she can top on any type of ground if u slow down and keep a good eye on wat ur doing. Disc mower all day long
Oh wow! The sun was shining! The mower blades are only sharp if you keep them sharp. It is important to check the blades often to make sure that you have a good edge on your blades. Can you tell us about greasing the moving parts on your mower? What does keeping the grass fresh have to do with the sugar content in the grass, Adrian?
Disc mower any day bought 7ft malone myself this year makes a far better job than the topper and on the upside grass comes back quicker after the disc mower to
Toppers tare the grass where disc mower clips the grass on plus side if you had big enough disc mower you could take out paddocks for bales or silage lely mowers seem to be all around the place with farmers and ud see them of value on donedeal
just wondering what part in county Cavan is that very tidy farm located love your videos also Cavan walk into them Dubs hit them hard and often best of luck oul fermanagh man in Calgary
I'd agree that the disc mowers are much better and your dead right they aren't that delicate i was only about a month behind the wheel of a tractor before i got sent topping and I batterd it off the ground and got stones cuaght up in it a few times cause i hadn't a clue at the time what I was at and the mower was perfectly fine after.
Good vid adrian will you review some of you power tools aswell especially the dewalts because I am looking to get one myself. Have slight experience with a 20v max but they are v hard to get which ones.would you recommend?
Hi Adrian, very useful information thanks for the upload. What's the power requirement for a 9ft or 10ft disc mower if wanting to mow meadows as well as topping?
That was a gift from above running into that old man who told you about the the disc mower vs the grassland topper . I thought you were mad myself when I heard you mention it first last summer . Now that you have presented it there I see your logic in using that mower . Did you say you are mowing the grass and then strip grazing the cows on it ?
Hola buenos días estoy viendo que te neis muy buen pasto pero parece que no tenéis ☘️☘️☘️☘️ aquí en el norte de España cuando no ahí trebol es falta de Cal en el terreno Un saludo desde Asturias
Thing with spreading the sh1t is your spreading the fluke too. Whatever you use the most important thing is good clean outs without leaving the cows hungry. A tricky balance.

Could you make a video on the history of the farm like past machinery, buildings, stories
Sounds good
pro trick: watch series on flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.
@Jeffrey Frank Yup, have been watching on flixzone} for since december myself :D

I subscribe to less than a dozen channels & yours is a weekly "must watch" and i have nothing to do with farming whatsoever.
Glad your enjoying the vids mate 👍
I do most of my topping with a mower but bought a second hand flail topper for rough ground and for cutting back rushes
like the fact you do field work without having the loader on makes life easier

We spread a phisolith from grassland Agro, Adrian
Super product IMO, keeps the ground really sweet and the cows are always nipping in at dung pats
What about a flail for the quad. We have one and it's a good job for grass and rushes
We recently got a Major cyclone, a fantastic bit of kit.
Good but heavy on fuel and slow I heard
Great video🌟 again..we got our first major disc mower this year ,always had toppers .what a change in the grass .👍all we have is horse's. 🐴
I have a topper and mower and It very handy because if u had the topper and it hit a stone and broke a blade, egleast it woundnt be the mower

Kuhn topper we had with a roller on back to spread the sh't out. Done a Brilliant job. Brilliant video 💪🏴

Mower I use because cleaner cut and faster re growth and if want to take out small bit for bales you can cut it
I was told that toppers shred the edge of the grass leaf, a mower with SHARP blades leaves a clean cut edge. It’s all about respiration or transportation of moisture from the grass leaf.
A box topper so very good if u hah e rough ground
Congratulations! Adrian. Just shows if you're confident in front of the camera and have good content, you'll get noticed.
Again well done and thanks.
Your observations on premowing are spot on.lots of good information good job.
As for the case hi speed starter the only way to go. Mine like many others had the bosh starter turns to slow when cold. Also I have a jf sb2400 great mower. Only problem I have is it doesn't fold in neat. Hangs out a bit. But defo a gear reduction starter the way to go.
Not having to change blades must be nice lol we go through about a set a year on our 2.8m kuhn, we grow the best rocks you'll find anywhere haha
Its hard to time it right ull top wen uv time. But. If u top just as the regrowth is starting. It is the perfect time in my opinion.
I like the picture of the tractor on the wall beside the computer, one of your daughters art work I presume
Ive been waiting for this👍 Pre mowed once cows done a good job few young docs and they ate them too. Great video
Just love your videos and learning new things as well ,fair play to you I don’t know how you get the time but keep it up.
Great video Adrian 👍.A disc mower is the only yoke to use. When we pre-mow we leave it to dry a bit, they lick it of the ground
Good 😌 video the disc mower make a nice 👍 job keep safe 👍😌👩🌾🏴😷🇬🇧thanks you for the video over the year 🚜🚜😷😷👍😌🇬🇧🏴👩🌾
Talking about Grass length ect ,That field could do with a good rolling !
Great Vlog A., enjoyed watching this with a cuppa after getting the dinner prep done
Love the case fab little tractor mower best way to go joe in Wexford
The cousin does dairying and he does the exact same system as you with the disc mower over the topper and has the exact same outcome with milk production.
We have a topper and we have a disc mower too and we find no difference just the mower it better with big rushes
Happy birthday CASE ...30 yrs this year !!

You should try pottinger for mowers
And get a newholland tractor aswell
Malone mower have skids and take of swarf does good job
Case will never let you down💪💪💪
I’m sharing this now with my cousin
Was waiting for this one adrian very well explained. Get your Cavan flags out,,.........CAVAN Abu...
another topping vid adrian thank you
Good stuff
Good video adrian well done on all the subs well deserved 👍
Great video 👍🏻 congrats on 20k
Well Adrian 👍👍

Can you tell us about greasing the moving parts on your mower? What does keeping the grass fresh have to do with the sugar content in the grass, Adrian?
you should change the oil in the bed great video
Done that after it first year of run in
Disc mower any day bought 7ft malone myself this year makes a far better job than the topper and on the upside grass comes back quicker after the disc mower to
Malone makes great stuff
Toppers tare the grass where disc mower clips the grass on plus side if you had big enough disc mower you could take out paddocks for bales or silage lely mowers seem to be all around the place with farmers and ud see them of value on donedeal
just wondering what part in county Cavan is that very tidy farm located love your videos also Cavan walk into them Dubs hit them hard and often best of luck oul fermanagh man in Calgary
Great video
Thanks for that , good advice.
100% on grass management, for years topped with finger bar. On the side of hills you wouldn’t a ass.
I'd agree that the disc mowers are much better and your dead right they aren't that delicate i was only about a month behind the wheel of a tractor before i got sent topping and I batterd it off the ground and got stones cuaght up in it a few times cause i hadn't a clue at the time what I was at and the mower was perfectly fine after.
How do you eficently get cows out of the feilds and into the milk shed and back out twice a day. Do they walk down them selves when they are ready?
Good vid adrian will you review some of you power tools aswell especially the dewalts because I am looking to get one myself. Have slight experience with a 20v max but they are v hard to get which ones.would you recommend?
Hi Adrian, very useful information thanks for the upload.
What's the power requirement for a 9ft or 10ft disc mower if wanting to mow meadows as well as topping?
75 horse.
Adrian had you ever a beast with a slipped shoulder
Adrian is that a roller in the background
Yip
Let's see the cows getting clipped. What kinds of clippers do you use? How much of the cow do you clip?
Love the video 👍
Disc mower can done all the 1 job
Great channel 👍
Is that you in front of the general Lee? Dukes of hazzard fan are we?
That was my wedding car, it was actually in the series, love the General Lee
@@IFarmWeFarm cool beats a rolls Royce any day did it have the horn?
Do you use topping skids on mower when topping
No that JF mower doesn’t need them
That was a gift from above running into that old man who told you about the the disc mower vs the grassland topper . I thought you were mad myself when I heard you mention it first last summer . Now that you have presented it there I see your logic in using that mower . Did you say you are mowing the grass and then strip grazing the cows on it ?
Yes but only if the paddocks are getting strong ahead
Loved it. Your right about spreading the cow dung 💩
Hola buenos días estoy viendo que te neis muy buen pasto pero parece que no tenéis ☘️☘️☘️☘️ aquí en el norte de España cuando no ahí trebol es falta de Cal en el terreno
Un saludo desde Asturias
Ah I was disappointed that you only topped the top and didn’t top the bottom 😀
When was this filmed.?
But the disk mower
We were a long time waiting for this adrian 😉 with a decent covering of grass how many acres would be 12 hours grazing for you?
An acre does 50 cows and you'll get 3 grazings out of it
@@cillianh5841 that sounds like a very heavy sward, almost into it being too strong for them and round baling it
@@jerryodriscoll3691 sorry youd get 2 grazings out of an acre
@@cillianh5841 would that be a standard British friesen now or a jersey or something similar
@@jerryodriscoll3691british freisans
First
Would break a crowbar in a bog 😂😂😂

many acres
There won't be a single disk mower to be got on donedeal now after this video 🤣
No!!!!!!!!! .Its an International , I used to drive the I H 674s just the same
Wel
We have to get Evan reilly to change you to a Malone Adrian 😀😀😀
It could happen, Malone make nice looking mowers
@@IFarmWeFarm thanks Adrian
