  • A friend had the pea viners in this morning so I thought I would go along and film it for you.
    For reasons that are not clear to me, my video editor has decided to change the aspect ration on the output files. I have absolutely no idea why, I didn't tell it to.

    Pea viners are doing the rounds in Tayside at the moment, running 24/7 if they can. Most of, if not all the peas round here ends up in a cold store in Dundee for a well-known brand of frozen peas, usually within an hour I'm told

    I’m old enough to remember when the canning companies cut the vines and hauled them to stationary viners at the canning company. We would pick up vines which fell off the overloaded trucks. We would eat them fresh or shuck them for mother to freeze. Great childhood memories!

      Simpler times. I remember that too, then we had viners towed behind big (in those days) 4wd tractors, now everything is self propelled.

    Got a field of peas at the back of the house, looking bloody good considering, about ready, three trials in field, two varieties some with liquid fert at time of planting, agree nice and sweet.

      This batch were the first attempt on this particular farm as part of a regenerative farming plan. With the cost of fertilizer this year, I think they will still be a winner for next year's wheat.

    As a kid in the early 1970's, used to sit in the pea field eating them straight from the pod. Sweet as sweet, but kept you regular.

    That is a really rare harvesting event nowadays, do you know if they are destined for the frozen or canning industry? Its interesting to hear you describe the peas as sweet because it used to be that sugar levels of the sample used to be so important that if it moved too high or the tenderometer readings got too high the viners would immediately pull out and move to another crop. I was involved in operating spray irrigation systems to try to delay ripening and hold back the development of the crop for at least 36 hrs. Crops that missed being vined were thrown back to be later harvested as combined dry peas.
    Thanks for making the effort to capture this short video.

    • @ClarenceFudWeasel
      @ClarenceFudWeasel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They were frozen within about three hours of picking.
      This year, pea yields are about 25% of normal so a lot of the selection criteria are being ignored to keep up freezing quantities.
      It still happens when vining peas don't make the grade that they are left for combining, but I don't think it will happen much this year.
      Thanks for watching.

    I have no idea how they actually work, there weren't many if any around when I came off the land in 86. Could you do a video on their internl workings, perhaps when one is being cleaned down at the end of the season?

      That would be very interesting. I know roughly how they work but not exactly.
      Farm I grew up on grows peas but they're dried and combined they grow rye grass too and that when I was a kid was mown to dry but after a few years they cut it direct as the weather could be too catchy when it was mown.

      @@roberthiggins6401 I've combined rye grass and it was a right pain, trying to keep the drum speed low to not damage the seed whilst not running it so slow it jambs up.
      As a young teenager I can remember putting swathed peas on poles to dry before being fed into a combine later, that would have been in the early 70s.

    Used to see pea viners when I went out with my Dad and went near to Lowestoft. Always impressed by the sheer size of these beasts. Are you there on standby in case of breakdowns or are you on carting duties?

      No, I was just there to film for you guys. The pea group just rent the land from seedbed to stubble and manage everything in that time.

      It was, we're having a bit of a problem with fires at the moment, several have spread to villages destroying houses and other buildings. We're just not used to this kind of hit dry weather. I can't believe people actually start fires deliberately 🤬

    Good evening Mr Fud-Weasel, you've certainly got your one in a five a day, I do distinctly remember watching on a program about how they harvest and process pea's awhile ago and it's amazing about the effort that it has taken especially the equipment for harvesting, a question I've been meaning to ask was, which year of square baler would your Massey Ferguson 165 and 175 period of baler Massey Ferguson would be correct? Would I be guessing incorrectly 20-8 or the 124/128 ?? It would make an nice addition to your collection. Thank you for your video sir.and of course I did hit the like button of course.👍

    • @ClarenceFudWeasel
      @ClarenceFudWeasel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks for your support. The 124 was introduced in 1976 I think, so the 20 would be more period correct. I do have a John Deere 459 conventional baler that might get an outing this year some time if we need any small bales.

    • @calumanderson5617
      @calumanderson5617 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you very much for answering my question, I thought it would be one of two, would your 165, 175, or the 590 manage to motivate your John Deere 459 baler?? I'm not familiar with the brand?.

    • @ClarenceFudWeasel
      @ClarenceFudWeasel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@calumanderson5617 The 165 would drive it quite nicely behind an older combine like a 760 or 625, but it would probably struggle behind a big newer 30 foot combine, it would struggle to go slow enough. But that's always a problem now even with my 6465. Also going slow enough makes it hard for the bales to flow through the sledge.
