Farming Youtubers

FarmTheory has a very detailed video up on his milking parlour.

Didn't watch the video. But on the point of the plastic slats. It's a big no.

Know someone in waterford years ago thought they were doing good putting them in. Put them in and you can't wash milk and dirt underneath them and it just stinks the parlour. They took them out again in short time.

I see you're talking 18 inches of depth. But I still wouldn't like the idea.

Normally not keen on longer videos but youtuber called Marty T has one out where he converts quad from petrol to electric. Funny thing is saw electric bikes at ploughing and had been thinking 3 wheeler would be more stable for farming applications.

That Italian Ryegrass is some stuff to Grow, Farm Theory's latest video showing him lifting his 4th or 5th cut of it this year, and the trailed harvester sliding sideways at times lifting the crop last weekend on hilly ground

Neighbour has it here. It grows fast for sure but I think it has to be reseeded every 5 years or so as it dies out.

Was up in @farmerphil135 yesterday to get a pumpkin. Some crowd knocking around and the "stars" from the channel all there for chats, pics, sales! The new yard is getting a good packing now as a car park. Was a great way to spend an hour on a fine sunny Sunday. Well done on it all. It didn't feel as homely as when it was beside the farm shop though but maybe because the space is much bigger and yer not having a cuppa in the back yard of the house. Nevertheless, best of luck with the rest of the pumpkins

Agree, apart from even flow, as I've said different times, I get no appeal from his videos

Got a new television last week and youtube, before you sign in, is basically all those kind of thumbnails. And they are incredibly popular going by the views. New videos touching a million views and often way more. Looks stupid but effective in reaching a bigger audience.

His grazing seems to be the next hurdle to clear. I remember he had Grasstec over mapping the fields, but I think his Da wasn't keen on moving to paddock based grazing.

I just checked there and he has 560k subscribers. At those numbers, he must be generating a fair bit of income from YT. I'm not particularly fussed on his videos but then his audience would probably be more general public than the Irish Youtubers - based on the comments anyway.

Without the YouTube and farm shops they’d just be another smear you’d see around the country they’re system is completely outdated.
