You'd nearly think they'd offer to run the hedgetrimmer on it for free just to make it handier. I guess the fancy pottinger one they had on hire wouldn't have as much of a problem though. There was fair pressure on his mirrors too.

If Phil cut it once you can bet no one would cut hedges there again. That's the problem with ROW's. Most contractors would not go down there and I would not blame them. No need for a teleporter, just say you can't get down

Often heard Phil saying that they do all contracting services except hedge cutting. You can be sure there's a valid reason why they haven't sorted that stump and the hedges.

In all honesty it's not the contractors problem to sort out, unless they are paid to rectify matters

Maybe it's a case of they didn't want to turn it away as they don't have a lot of customers

Came across a nice little channel today worth a look, called Finnegan’s Farm.

Starting watch just a few acres recently. American guy who speaks very well on the threat to society by the commercial toon of factory farming. Very good communicator. Good old vintage stuff too.

Been watching the clips from Lucky Hill farm these past few days.

Very smartly done and put together.

It's a lot of his adventures making and using biogas from an ibc tank.

Ah that’s out a couple of years now. Is one of the main 3 in Ireland along with farmer Phil and gerry 6420. It use to be some thing different but is just becoming the same as the rest with big tractor and doing silage videos and machinery demos. In the beginning he had something different to offer where he was showing how a smallish family farm ran.

I see farmer Phil saying his views aren't as good the last few weeks and he noticed it on other farming channels too.

The aul algorithm isnt going well for them so.

C0N0R · 13-08-2021 10:46AM

What surprised me is that grassmen seem to get less views on their content that farmer Phil and ifarmwefarm etc

leoch · 13-08-2021 12:49PM

i even see it myself from a viewers point of view u get fed up watching some of them after a while or u might stop watching some and then go back watching them after a while so u can see how the viewing numbers may fluctuate

Phil used to have a good bit more than him, then Ifarm went off spending like there is no tomorrow and that brings in viewers, he's becoming a walking advertisement whereas Phil has watchable content ,even on his instagram story Ifarm is asking people for recommendations for a silo bin, in reality he is saying I'm looking for a silo bin, if any company wants to give me one, get in touch.

Who is enquiring about the bin?

ifarm on instagram

jesus ifarms voice goes threw me

Tileman · 13-08-2021 02:21PM

To be fair I think adrianni in ifarm is a good presenter and his production values are very good. Last night episode on the tef 20 was good. I wish he would found on what he is good and unique to him rather than chasing the big machinery and demo stuff.

The money in youtube is live streaming with superchats. I watch some United Stand, a Man Utd fan channel and it's unreal the money people give. Welkers are the only farm channel I see doing that but very infrequent and very small donations.

totally get that, but the amount of views on their current stuff in comparison to the other lads is poor (grassmen)

straight · 13-08-2021 09:32PM

Grassmen is for kids and tractor heads. Could never watch them.

I was nearly afraid to confess that myself for fear of retribution; could never watch more than a few minutes of it.

A few of the big ones had these really stupid clickbaity titles trying to entice a view for a while. It's no wonder the overall viewership went down.

I'd watch Post10 drain a flood before I'd click on titles like that.

You have it there.

If I see a hand over a face and exclamation marks in the title. I won't click on and view.

I haven't been watching much YouTube myself these days. Mostly because busy.

Bit tiring seeing same stuff too and people hamming it up.

einn32 · 14-08-2021 10:34AM

Actually back watching Lord Muck again. I used to watch him but stopped. Love watching him get old tractors that have sat for years going again.

IFarmWeFarm is dead bloody right to be looking for freebies. Sure wouldn't we all love to get them. All it costs is a few mentions on a camera. He's built up a following and he should use it to it's max while he can. It's a pain in the hole listening to the begging in "I'm not begging - just asking for advice" format. Nevertheless, we'd all bloody do it if we'd the same platform
