I don’t know how it was a mistake to directly reply to him when you directly referenced that posters points about unsubscribing and not watching your videos.

I can't see the channel really lasting more than 2 more years without views dropping, people get used to you no matter how good you think your video's are. I don't really mind as it's tough going, every job takes way longer to do when a camera is with you. I would love to make videos that actually aren't farming related some day. I used to build one of quads from scratch and would love to start that up again. Something Mechanical themed, bit of crack really so maybe one day we might start something on that.

Ya i could see how to post for a start, you probably seen my video on what i thought of this push for a large number of cows or nothing else. The price of fertiliser will water our eyes next year. Just got a quote for 800 euro a tonne for pasture sward today.

No not yet, hopeful this year. Might get it mow ploughed as them fields are full of older stone shores. I'll have to have a proper look at what it's like in the spring

No it should hold all, I probably end up building it myself next year. ESB poles and blocks perhaps. I've built several sheds for others so it's just a matter of getting the time. We see what happens

Welcome to boards Adrian. Great to see new posters always.

All opinions welcome here and we try not to fight (too much)

funkey_monkey

@IFarmWeFarm7615 - you showed in one video creosote penetration on some posts. Did you ever source any that got full penetration right through to the core?

Jeez that’s some entrance . Talk about taking the doors down with you.

Perhaps it was an over reaction on your side after reading a few comments here. However this is a really good informative boards community who talk about all aspects of agriculture and social media is a new extension of ah community. Once you put yourself out there you need to be prepared for others comments and views.

personnaly I’ve watched you from the very start when you were building the shed in the out farm. and enjoy your videos mostly. However like many I find the earlier stuff of you doing repairs or fixing something allot more interesting than just another review of a piece of machinery that every other you tuber is doing. I think you have a very good set of hands and people enjoy seeing the repairs and improvements .

I have found you are very strong in your views and less open to others views through out your videos. . Personally I like to hear others views and consider them before just automatically discounting them.

anyway welcome on boards and I hope you take an approach like Phil to engage with the community here as you will see from the post it is a topic of interest and we all have a passion for farming.

the best of luck with the new tractor and well done on your success to date.

Kevhog1988

@IFarmWeFarm7615 i would have thought more of your videos would have had sponsored content than you say (the guys who covered the pit is 1 that springs to mind) but take it at face value now that they dont.

What editing software do you use out of interest?. Phil did a good video on how he makes his lately.

Also, does your father watch the videos or what does he think of them?. Ever think of interviewing him about how the farm has progressed since he started out etc?.

Very good. I just noticed on a recent vid with the likes of the mower and hedgecutter the amount of space they could easily take up in a shed. There's a place in Fermanagh does canceled orders on sheds that has RSJs etc. See them on DoneDeal alot.

This is a discussion forum there was no hate campaign against you or any other YouTuber, just opinions but irrelevant majority of the time.

Would hope to see more vids on you with the mig welder also. Thanks.

cables

wouldn’t getting equipment to review not be classed as sponsored content like that quad trailer and the bale roller?

Ifarm, see the 3 little dots on the right hand side beside the post number (eg. 1160) click on them and it allows you edit your post for up to 24 hrs. Too late to edit your first 🙄 post as other lads have already quoted it.

very good point, forgot about the agitator work. Best of luck with the 5460, looking forward to seeing it in more videos.

roosterman71

Another youtuber in our midst now. This farming forum is the feckin bees knees.

@IFarmWeFarm7615 I hope you'll stick around and contribute to other threads here and not just this youtube one. Your setup looks top notch and you surely have nuggets of information on how to go about things that others may not have thought of. Don't get bogged down in responding to critique just here but become one of the boys (and the few girls we have) on the forum. Place is top notch.

PS - careful with wrangler

You mean like Phil having a go at Bellair, I hate dirty gossips.

The only one I follow is Gardiners in France, the most straight, interesting and honest videos

wrangler

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118294553#Comment_118294553

I'm not good with begrudgers and gossips you mean

wrangler

Nah, that couldn't happen........ could it, 😂😂😂😂😂

You're dead right. ......

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118294570#Comment_118294570

Imagine having the gall to begrudge a young couple spending their money on their house or the audacity to involve an architect.

After all, they didn't "look affluent enough" to be at that........

If it's not the young people, it's the health service/ civil service you've a fresh bit of begrudgery about each week. Not to mention a bit of gossip about some neighbour who's a nurse but only works 15minutes a day two days a week and takes 25 weeks holiday. Or your friends kids who're all in there twenties but never did a days work and have been in college since 1975.

The last fella I saw talking out of both sides of his mouth was a ventriloquist.

wrangler

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118294929#Comment_118294929

You call it begrudgery I call it complaining about a damn poor service.

They're forever apologising for one mistake while making another one.

K.G.

Hopefully having a couple of YouTube contributors will keep comments cordial but at the same time if you start showing what's going on you ve got listen to the s##t that goes with it.i follow sport on forums as well and it always shocks me how venomous and disrespectful posters can be about sports people,alot of whom are in their 20 s and might nt have the mental skills to deal with some of the stuff that's put up. Could it be that phil and ifarm are the new Dallas/Dynasty of modern times or are they "im a celeb/love island" for farmers

funkey_monkey

or are they "im a celeb/love island" for farmers

I think coming from Longford is all that @farmerphil135 and Maura Higgins have in common TBF. I may be wrong though...

You referenced my post stating i wasn't the kind of viewer you wanted on your channel, So i find that hard to believe.

But I appreciate it's not easy to come on and see some of the stuff written on here, And my response may have been the straw that broke the camel's back so no harm no foul.

I'm surprised to hear that, because I can't for the life of me fathom why someone would message someone verbal abuse over a tractor. But I'm sorry to hear that all the same.

As for gifting, If that is the case, I do apologize, Your support for local businesses is admirable, And it's a shame to have to say it but it may be no harm to state more often that you're not actually receiving endorsement/sponsorship. And again with regards to speaking out against bullying and abuse, I did say I stood to be corrected on that, which is fair enough.

Personal attacks aside, I wish you all the best, As i said You have a lovely set up and a fine herd of cows.

Perhaps the forum motto could be "Criticise them, and they shall come"

IFarmWeFarm7615

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118297683#Comment_118297683

I admire your response so thank you for that. I do apologise if any personal offence was taking. On the other point I actually have started telling people more and more often that a lot of the items i show i have bought myself. I always say something is sponsored if otherwise. Lately we have been turning down a lot of offers to be honest as I don’t really enjoy doing sponsored videos. But there’s some things that really do benefit our farm directly and I’d be foolish to not consider those.

I much prefer to do my own thing as it’s way more fun and there’s way less stress involved.

We’re normally people thrown into a new world I guess. Once again I appreciate your reply and wish you all the best.

Adrian..

Tileman

Now where is that gerry fella 😀

surely he should have came by now with the criticism of the cattle prods

White Clover

@IFarmWeFarm7615 Welcome Adrian, Can I ask if you looked at any 4365 when you were purchasing lately? Around the 110 to 115hp bracket and much the same as the 4270 that you had previously. Well ware on the new bus BTW!

Tileman

@farmerphil135 just watching today’s video. here is a grand shed fit the bill perfect for all your machinery .

What's the relevance of brexit here? Was the issue not with a truck breaking down? (Didn't watch the whole video)

Surprised to hear It was being dumped for quality after two days.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118298123#Comment_118298123

tis a fine lump of a shed but id be happy just to get the bit of stone down😂but our plan is to build a lean too off the back of the pits and meal shed eventually, high enough for the rake with the arms on and deep enough for a tractor and trailer

Any sign of the video on the jerseys weight gain etc ?. I find the cattle vids very interesting.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118298916#Comment_118298916

i have the stats done and plan is to record sunday when i have the time and try fit it in for next week, all of a sudden i have 5 videos nearly ready to go.

also a little teaser the difference in the average weight between the pure breed JE and JEX is 82kg😳

Base price

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118298975#Comment_118298975

I admire that you are rearing dairy bull calves (JEx/FR/FRx/HO) to beef and making a go of it and fair play to ye. I think that you have auto cmr feeders and they make a huge difference. We used to rear a good few FR/FRx/JEx/HO/MO bull calves (+/-350 annually) but we quit rearing big numbers after the price crash in 2012/'13/'14 when the factories didn't want them.

I just wonder how dairy bull calf to beef rearers are goin to fare out in the next few years if the proposed calf transport rules come into place and we are awash with dairy/dairy cross bull calves. I've previously posted on F&F that if the proposals come to pass then we will have factory type calf rearing farms and I don't think that would be good for animal welfare.

I started getting into the YouTube action just from this thread so I guess the old quote, all publicity is good publicity.

Saying that, anyone care to recommend any sheep farmers out there?

Kevhog1988

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118299699#Comment_118299699

The Sheep Game & Sheepishly me are probably the 2 best ones i watch.

There was a girl from Sligo posting sometimes, Joanne the shearer but the videos are very sporadic. Her brother has a podcast that @farmerphil135 was on actually.

Been following a good few farming youtubers lately

Farmer Phil

Ifarmwefarm

Tom Pemberton (UK)

Sonne Farms (US)

Sask Dutch Kid (US)

10 Generation Dairyman (US)

White House on the Hill (US)

Lumnah Acres (US)

Our Wyoming Life (US)

Just a few acres farming (US)

Jesus I didn't realise how bad I was until I listed them 😄 the US ones are very interesting especially how they manage feeding cattle in the harshest of winters in feed lots and open fields, is there any you lads would recommend that I haven't seen ?

roosterman71

Mike Mitchell and Olly Blogs are 2 others I watch

jimmy G M

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118301971#Comment_118301971

Yeah Olly Blogs, a Scouser farming & agri contractor just just outside Liverpool. Has a few more irons in the fire also. Lot of machinery agri contracting stuff if you are into that.

Used to watch Mike Mitchell too but couldn't handle the 30 min long vids of driving a tractor up and down corn fields 100's of acres in size anymore.

One guy I watch and I don't know why really - Nick's farm - Uk arable farmer - a bit posh but really nice easygoing fella. Nice relationship with his father who is a bit of an eccentric. Father flys a plane and has his own airstrip. Sometimes does a collaberation with his cousin who is a bit of a dose.
