Great video, fair play to the vintage tractor crew, doing a great, job.
Politics are definitely best avoided. I’ve been a Conservative voter since the early 80s but I couldn’t endorse that shower. Remember those trade deals just to get something signed and what about standards in public life? How you conduct yourself matters. Here’s hoping 🤞
Definitely. 👌
Proper farming Andrew, taking a hit this year to reset the most important asset in your business, the soil. Well done and looking forward to your farm being back to full productivity next year.
So am I!!
Thanks Andrew, another great update. Let's hope this next Autumn/winter is not as wet as last year, good to see the drainage in though. We can only see what happens with the new Government, let's hope its good for everyone. Really good to see the tractor run, well done to them.
You are a wonderful farmer and extremely professional in all you do
☺️👍
Great update… good to see fundraising for the Air Ambulance, an essential for Lincolnshire given how remote you can be as a casualty, either on the roads or in the countryside. People wrongly believe that the service is partly NHS or govt funded, but every penny needed to keep it providing care in the air is from charitable donations…
MF 35X Multipower, my favorite tractor, even better than MF 1200, the model I drove for many years.
Great update Andrew, and amazing views from North Wales, and not too far from us in the East Midlands.
Great Eccleston show is excellent. We are in the process of moving from near Derby to Pilling, which is a few miles north of Gt Eccleston. We will be there, my partner is exhibiting crafts & demonstrating either spinning or weaving on Sunday.
Fab, see you then!
I’m afraid we can try and be as positive as we want about a labour government but we’ve seen it before and we know where we’re going.
You bet, good to see nigel one his seat though
Looked a nice crop of wheat where you have done the drainage 👍🏻
It is. Most of them look quite good, just the bare patches which spoil them.
Another great update Andrew, will agree we must give the new Government a chance and hopefully it will be better for everyone. Well done to the vintage tractor run , doing a grand job for a good cause.
Yes a very interesting time seeing how the new government tackles farming issues ie Feeding the nation and E A drainage management to protect food production
The trouble being taxes at all time high and no money in the coffers , but it is time to dredge rivers but will it happen
Another fantastic update Andrew really interesting what some lovely soil just outside of Spalding. Your ground is drying out nicely. Looking forward to your next update always find when I go across to Wales to see the family it's raining
We took the rain with us and brought it back!
Hello Andrew, yet another good vid, im a north walian lived on that coast line all my life stuning country side, the conveyor loads the. Quarry boats with limestone its shipped all over the world.
Thank you, I thought it would be something like that, I just got the belt going wrong way!
Loved seeing the Spalding and Holbeach area footage, my old stomping ground for many years. Great farming land.
Travelled back along the A17 yesterday on our way back to northumberland after a weeks holiday in North Norfolk.
Good to see a different landscape quite a drop down past leadenham
It’s always a great view across the Trent Valley on a bright day.
Hi Andrew, top video, will show mum later. It was good to see the drainage guys in action. I was hoping to make it down to have a look, but was away that day. Interesting how the geology changes the soil type. Top of the wards long field is underlain by Brandon sandstone (192 million years old) and the bottom of the field is Charmouth mudstone, hence the amount of clay.
Thanks for that Andrew, never heard of those soil types. They used a bit more stone than on the plan but I’m sure it’ll benefit.
Good morning Andrew.
Very wise to stay away from politics although you would make a fantastic agricultural minister! 👍
I’ve just caught the new chancellors speech, a massive change in planning with a big push towards large scale renewables, I can see farmers being forced into giving land over for wind/solar farms even if they don’t want to. She said central government will overturn any local objections.
Net zero is going to be bad for all farming in this country in my opinion but like you say, let’s see what will happen.
Have a good week 👍
Uncertain times ahead.
Great video. Well done to Tour de Lincs.
Great video 👌
Lets just hope that the new government don't copy and paste what their Welsh colleagues have been up to - I have my fears they will though.
Great video Andrew
Hi Andrew I'm from Northern Ireland and unfortunately now we've got an agricultural minister from a non farming background and is just going along with what his advisors are telling him. Enjoy your videos
Thank you.
Nice to see some "proper" tractors, got a little Mf35 myself, our barley is about 10 days away from cutting, but now the it's gone flat after all the wind and rain we've had since Friday, even flatten some wheat, another interesting video, let's hope for a few weeks of sunshine
Nothing worse than flat corn. ☹️
great stuff andrew
My second cousin was head of defra (George Eustice) he was brought up on a mixed family farm here in cornwall, he knew/knows the challenges facing agriculture but chose to spew out the 'party line', there lays the problem with ALL branches of government, sadly
I thought George was good at first but he soon wasn’t!
Let’s hope all that wheat you will be growing didn’t drop the price down to &120/ton🤞🏿
I’ve already sold a chunk forward at 208! 👍😊
Welcome back from your vacation.
Thank you, we all really enjoyed it.
Glad you enjoyed wales, A55 coast road replaced old coast many years ago,
Will that drain cause problems if in future you want/need mole plough will touch or have you been able to record the drainage,
We’ll mole through the stone, it’ll work well.
He was way out with year for grey and gold, 1968 never, more like 1958, last year my father died, he sold a grey/gold 35 3 months before.
Sorry to hear about your Dad.
I bet you didn't realise that you also filmed the chap on the Ford 5000, my friend Barrie Mumby, on his 'Home made mobility scooter' in one of your Lincs Show updates recently! 😂
I remember seeing that!
Re change of government, despite being regularly critical of the Tories since Brexit in particular, I've noticed how much more helpful RPA have been in the last year, and have told them so.
I've been submitting claims for hedges I've planted and fences I've put up, under mid tier.
They have paid a lot quicker and do seem to understand the need to, to enable us to carry out the actions they're wanting from us.
You’re right Steve, I do think they finally were listening, pity they didn’t do it sooner.
I have a confession I mentioned you had French butter few weeks ago. Because french Brie was on offer at Tesco I bought some
🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️😂
I have to agree with you about that drain, it looks to me like it will cut a trench in the bank in a couple of years. If that is classed as a river do you have to get permission to put a drain into it 🤷♂️
I don’t think so.
@24.55 "Very productive, grade 1and grade 1 means top quality expensive soil, grows a lot of food" Not when it's covered in housing developments!
Or covered with water!
Good luck to the lads on the tractor run.
Scrap net 0 and all the helicopters could be funded easily and probably end homelessness and hunger here.
What happens to the end of the drainage pipe in the field.
Nothing it’ll be fine, sometimes they’re capped off.
can you not use gypsum to help break up clay help the drainage Andrew
We could but some fields are really a lot of clay, we’ve just become used to how to deal with it and let the weather be our friend.
Did you bring some Welsh lamb back with you???🐑🤔🍴
Afraid not!
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard bit fatty some of it lol
Another great video Andrew.Will wheat bulb fly not be a problem with all that bare soil in August?
Maybe but hopefully some of the cover crop will keep growing after it’s been soloed.
LET the soil flood words of the ignorant , and the fist to complain as to the price of food
Exactly!
Great update Wardy, alway good to catch up with proceedings of a lazy Sunday morning.
I have to comment on my dislike for this new format of video. I don't understand preempting what you're about to see with a 'coming up'. Feels very Americanised, or like you're trying to make extra content out of nothing,.. which seems totally unnecessary. I'm already subscribed, I'm going to watch whats "coming up", why delay it? Considering how long I've been following you it feels a lot like you taken some bad advice. It doesn't feel fitting with your updates. I used to enjoy your intros, and the outros, which have seemly diminished out of existence, and contrary to your claims, in past videos your political opinions have been interesting even when I haven't agreed with you.
I appreciate you may want to restrict your political opinions aspect to avoid contention, but I don't understand the new 'coming up' development. Perhaps I just don't like change, or I'm just not a fan of how Wardy's weekly waffle seems to be evolving into Wardy's mandetory update with new reserved opinions, but it doesn't feel like it came from you, whether you're trying to emulate other youtubers or taking advice.
I appreciate TH-cam probably provides an income a farmer can no longer do/cope without, but the feel of the progression from 'unique TH-cam update' to 'monetised content provider' isn't adding anything to your videos quality for me, moreover it detracts from the quality since I now immediately hit skip at the start of your videos until I no longer see 'coming up'. I've never regularly skipped any of your content until recently.
I am but 1 voice, 1 opinion, but personally I much prefer your older video formats where you discuss potentially contentious topics, I love you fighting the good fight and possibly ruffling some feathers. There are too many opinions these days guided by popularity rather than poignancy, and I worry about the future of Wardy's waffle, but also I miss the old format intros and outros.
I don't understand TH-cam, nor your 'presence' on it, and so if the new format is pulling in extra views/exposure/revenue then perhaps my words should be ingored or disregarded, but having followed/subscribed to you for several years now the evolution of your presentation has been good until recently, but the last few videos seem to have taken influence from something or someone that I feel does not gel with your update style, and hope you'll revisit a more 'Wardy's waffle' style with future updates.
I wish you all the best though what ever direction you go in. Cheers fella! 👍
Thanks for the feed back really appreciate it.
I’ve always explained what’s ‘coming up’ in the intro. Doing it by showing short clips is a visual intro rather than me explaining in words. It’s nothing to do with views or financial benefit. Quite often I don’t know what is going to be in the update until I’ve edited clips together and seen how long it is. In the past I’ve done a verbal ‘coming up’ and then had to heavily edit it because if I’d left it all in, the update was too long. Last night was a prime example. I didnt finish editing this update until 3.30 am this morning, there was 62 videos at the start but it was 42 mins long so had to delete 3 topics. So in short it’s just easier for me doing it with little clips, that’s the only reason. I can still have a rant/ hold people to account in the video, as with my political thoughts in this update. But if it really does make the updates not so enjoyable, I'll revert back. I’ll may be ask everyone next sunday.
Again, appreciate your thoughts. 👍
I have to say that I prefer the previous brief verbal intros but understand your reasons.
Cheers for the feed back Alan. 👍
Stammer the bloke that can't tell you what a woman is and says he much prefers davos and wef to parLIEment is in parliement. His second in command didn't know about capital gains tax but I'm sure, in s sarcastic way, that she's confident in her role etc, etc.
I spoilt my vote with not consenting and telling them they're corrupt along with 134 others, i checked.
I am optimistic that it can be sorted and i is cash everytime possible.
Definitely could have been worse, Reform could have got in, and they'd have killed farming off for their overseas investors and killed the NHS for the same reason. Labour aren't perfect, but they're the best on offer.
👌👍
