I am thoughly enjoying your videos +your endless chatter explaining everything.Im 74 now & worked on small farms pitchfork in hand harvesting I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF EVERY DAY in all weathers, just the smell of being in the countryside & all it stands for there's nothing like it Thanks Ollie from The Vale of Belvoir
Im a student pilot from Cheshire but now living in Gatwick and watch your videos every day. Ive worked on dairy farms since i was 11 (now 25) but like you i love big machines. I love watching your videos as we see everything day by day and makes me feel like im part of it all.
Worked in farming from 12 years old first helping each summer with straw carting, then went full time after school till i was 21, then went into carpentry, now close to 60. Always had a interest in farming and love watching how things have changed over the years. Great content Olly.
I have always wanted to be involved in agriculture, either as an actual farmer or as an agricultural engineer. 🤞 I will get into agri college after my GCSEs and continue the legacy of our fourth generation farm 🚜
I’m a 38 yr old carpenter, my father inlaw is a farmer and I’ve been helping him out around the farm since me and the missus got together 21 years ago. I would love to give up the carpentry and work full time on the farm but unfortunately it’s not viable. I still find any excuse to get involved. Finding myself doing more every year. Highlight this year has been driving a mf7718 baling and tedding. Loved it. 👍🏻
I always wanted to be a farmer but after a bad accident two years ago I was very tempted to chuck in the towel and let the land , glad I didn’t and our son who is 17 is very keen to keep farming ,can’t believe your drilling spring barley and the wheat looks a picture
Hopefully young Harry will be a farmer of the future looks like our industry will be in good hands. Great video again sir keep em coming. Regards to the family and crew
All my life i wanted nothing but cows 🐄 tractors 🚜 and combines and nothing else mattered at the age of 14 i got my first farming job im now 49 and loved my life in the farming world. I worked 12 to 14 hours a day on the tractor milked cows before I went up every morning at 3am. I done my last milking on Friday morning for a father and son that I have been with for the 21 years full time and part time such a great life .I'm moving onto work with a waste company on Monday morning and looking forward to the change. But farming will always be in the blood I have such great memories
Lorry driver or farmer after my grandfather was farmer Have my own property maintenance company aged 47 to late for me now to change, I’m slightly obsessed with farming lol keep the videos coming really enjoy them each day
Police officer for almost 20yrs ! Always loved tractors and should have just gone with doing that but became a PC. I plan to do tractor driving when I retire, thinking of doing a couple courses for tractor driving to get my skills up. Love the vids, watch everyday👍
i wanted to be a farmer , but father said get a trade first , so became a sparky , and 34 years later , i`m still a sparky wishing i was farming . we do have a family farm , on its tenth generation , i learnt to drive some old Masseys , a Fergie and when we got a ford 4000 and two furough plow , we was in the big boy league , the fergie and others are still there
I’m exactly the same but In the building game but 7 yrs ago I thought sod it im gonna ask a farmer if they needed any help in the harvest and by luck they gave me a go, Now i do drilling in the spring in the evenings if they are behind and most of the cultivation’s and I’m on some proper kit, quady on culti and a fendt 939 on the harvest a right result, money isn’t there for the full time but I’m like a big kid still and treat it as my holiday from the stress of the day job and I’ve made some great friends , they better give me that combine key soon or I’m off 🤣
Hats off to you and your team for the sunflower maize it looks fab! Great to see! Studying marketing, nearly finished my masters. Finally realized that my vocation is farming. Wanted to do it since day 1 but got pushed into marketing
Always wanted to work on a farm growing up, was and still am obsessed with the machinery and the lifestyle. Ended up being a sound engineer 😂 still dream of doing some agricultural work some day! Been trying to offer my time for free to local farmers in exchange for the experience but to no avail!
I always wanted to work for a contractor, as my father worked for my uncle who had a big contractig firm doing allot of grass and maize for dairy farmers. 1 year before i was old enough to go and work for him he stopped doing silage and manure spreading. Still went to work for him, we do a lot of drilling and also have a big composting plant for making greenwast compost and biomass. Have our own peterson chipper wich we do allot of custom work with asswel. During the year i also work for a contractor during grass and maize season as my hart always was with the silage work. Absolutly love my job. By the way I am from the Netherlands
Started off on the Farm but like so many of my generation moved into Heavy Plant Operation "Muck Shifting" and Career Progression has led me into my Position. You can take the man off the Farm but you can never take the Farm out of the Man. The only Good Pigeon is a Dead Pigeon!!
Always wanted to be a farmer, worked on farms after finishing school and studied agriculture in college for 2 years, i worked for various Agri Contractors, back in the late 80's early 90's, i was left disabled after a farming accident back in may 97 when i was 27 years old, so now i don't work unfortunately I miss driving tractors so much the last tractor i drove was a case IH 956xl back in 1997, if i could turn the clock back i would still work on a farm..
I'm 38 and a car mechanic,but since I was a toddler I wanted to work on a farm,ive always loved farm machinery,First combine I ever seen and went for a spin on was a Claas Senator,Love the channel keep up the great work,#my new favourite CZcams channel 👍👍👍
I've always wanted to be a farmer and have been working on one since I was 13 helping out now im 17 still at the same place, milking, rearing calves and driving tractors.
I grew up wanting to be a farmer as my dad came from a farming background and loved when we visited. In my teens I started working for farming contractors and in my early 20s went to agri collage. Worked on my brother inlaws suckler farm for a few years aswell as contractors but had to give it up due to an eye condition that could lead to blindness. Im 34 now and still trying to find a way I can be involved in farming as I have a huge passion for it. People like you making videos lets me live that even though I'm not there its like we are all a part of it so thank you so much. A shoutout would be amazing. Jonny from Galway Ireland
When I grow up,bearing in mind I'm 52 now I would like to be doing something better than moving tarmac equipment up and down to different jobs. Well the wife says I need to grow up a lot and she's always right 👍😂. Top vid again and very interesting to see the drill
I wanted to be an architect, truck driver or Batman when I was young, went to a primarily attended by farming kids school, ended up buying a tractor at 16 and went contracting. I now farm and make Trailocks...
@Matts Farming Vlogs bought stuff that only needed one person to use ie. Hedge cutter, then got asked to do jobs that I'd buy something to do it, if it was worth it and tried buying kit that would suit my home farm. Sometimes use other farmers kit, still do!
So wanted to work on the farm with my dad, but the farmer retired the year I left school (1988), so I went and worked for the local massey ferguson dealer in the parts department for 8 years, then on to a John deere dealer on the spanners, now working on plant for one of the uk's biggest hire companies, wouldn't change it for the world.
I' am long distance truck driver known as GOFFY THE TRUCKER.When I was small lad wanted to be arable farm combines and tractors love them. I still do know
Didn’t really know what I wanted to do when I left school in 1985 so joined the RN. 24 years later I left and ended up driving a cab. One thing I wish I’d done when I had the spare cash as a fall back option was get me class 1 ticket. Top vid as always
I really wanted to be a farmer when I was Harry's age, then one day I was at an agricultural show and got a machinery price list (think it was New Holland) and worked out with no land from family either I was never going to make it pay. So I changed track and became a nuclear engineer instead. I don't know how anyone can get into farming in this country unless it's handed down, hats off to anyone who manages it.
@@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer that is true, and I did give that serious consideration. My uncle went this route but found himself out of a job within 5 years when the owners decided to sell up. The uncertainty of it put me off. Maybe I'm too risk adverse for farming.
Property and hard work was the way I got into farming,bought my 1st house aged 18,took 20 years to work up to buying 260 acres.”Where there’s a will there’s a way”
Going up wanted to be a Pro golfer, I now work in commercial horticulture growing 7 million trees from seed , in year 3 of a 7 year cycle , if you need any trees or plants in bulk ( like 1000s ) let me know we ship Europe wide next day delivery from Lincolnshire Wolds , keep on farming love seeing your work ethic and task management , and all the machinery and harvest time
I wanted to drive a tractor when I was a kid but ended up in the motor trade. I’d still love to drive a tractor though! I might go see if any of my local farmers need a hand :)
just subscribed, farming 160 acres down in South Devon with brother...... we had 30c on Wednesday and we are right on the coast. Love the show, keep up the fantastic show
Been retired for 17 years but had a great working life on amenity grounds maintenance but have always been interested in anything to do with agricultural hence that’s why I think you daily videos are very informative and interesting so thanks for the time and effort you put into keeping us informed.
Thanks Olly, love the village hall make over, rain here from 10:30 ish last night, 14 ml and showers today. A nurse, which I did for 10 years, ending in 1981 when son born. Now a local history researcher, great hobby. Good luck to Harry and hopes he can follow his dream.
I was brought up at Eltonhead and couldn’t wait to leave school and start work on our farm, at that point I moved down to our other farm in Shropshire where we had a proper mixed farm, we milked around a hundred cows, reared the beef calves to fat and grew grass, sugar beet, wheat and barley until life changed at forty and I went into the engineering business in the egg industry. Now self employed working on MOBA equipment in Ireland. Still love farming though and always will, really enjoy watching your blogs, cheers Ollie and hope to meet you one day 👍
Love that you’re cutting wheat and people my way are humming and aaaring about cutting winter barley. Be on the floor tomorrow after the rain 😂. Sunflower maize looks really well great setup 👌
Started off on a farm originally just down the M57 at junction 4. Family didn't want me to carry on so ended up as a topographical surveyor and then worked up to operations manager. Still love all the machinery! Keep up the cracking work with the videos.
Hey 98% today and much happier now the heat has subsided just trying to play catch up now on jobs we should have done when it was too hot....sun flower maze looks great so sad that's the last harvest 😪 and gutted about the number plate typical dvla...
I wanted to drive tractors when I grew up, arguably iv never grown up but iv driven a lot of tractors 😃 do a job you love and never work a day on your life 👍
Time-served agri engineer then joined the oil like many other grease monkies did then. Work on a farm on my days off. Ur videos are awesome, educational 2 for the younger viewers thinking of joining the farming industry.Thanku
Iv always wanted to be involved with machinery and big kit ! When I was younger used to watch the local arable farmer every summer and had rides in the combine etc . Always wanted to drive a combine
Olly , my dad was a farm manager so always wanted to be a farmer , managed it for a few years but unfortunately was made redundant and ended up lorry driving for a firm called David Nunn LTD , now Wynnstay famers , I'm now driving a Grab lorry but enjoy Ploughing , grain carting etc for a local farmer so still keeping my hand in , enjoy the farming the most though 👍 Once again , always look forward to your videos 👍👍
I started at agricultural college . then worked in a quarry. went back to farming and workrd on a 10,000 acre farm in norfolk then ended up back in the quarry, i'm 50 years old but farming is still in the heart,
I am subscribed to your channel and I love watching your videos at night on my phone bloody wrong keep building on good flat fields and I have to put up with banks on my farm. Keep up all the good work you do olly.
Wanted to be a farmer grew up on family dairy farm in Cockerham lancashire worked there 20 years then uncle sold up I then became groundworker now machine opperator still miss farming 23 years later
Wanted to be a farmer when I was young lad at school. Went to work on a farm for a few years. Went to work for a farm machinery delership driving pick up and yard work. Got the bug driving and became a lorry driver still at after 30 years. 🚜🚛.
Great question about life journey, now Transport Director after 35 years in that industry but first love is definitely farming and helping on friends farm for the last 40 years.🤗
Started out on neighbours dairy farm at about 11 then wanted to go ag spannering and did when i left ag college and I'm still doing it at the same dealership 26 yrs later. Another great video mate, good luck with the maze 🤞👍
I wanted to be a Lorry driver, but I was a van owner driver first then I had some lorries I did that for 12 years. I then went to work for a supermarket chain for 18 years, then someone had a bright idea to buy a small farm in Cornwall in 2016.
Another great video Olly I wanted to work on the farm when I was younger which I did but due to health reasons had to give it up but still got farming in my blood.
Im 16 and i would like to become a tree surgeon i am currently helping out on a farm staking small bales the hard way. I always love to see you videos of your day to day life
3rd gen broad acre farmer in Western Australia but I decided to go and be a heavy duty diesel mechanic on the mines fifo 2/1 first and haven’t come back to the farm yet 6.5 years later
wanted to be a farmer...ended up in IT for 25 years ...crap and am now just 4 weeks in with BT on the civils side digging holes lovin it still wanna be a farmer though ... be safe from Essex that whea tlooked good although a tad moist and Zak would say... :)
I’ve just come across your channel and me and my son are slowly getting through all of your videos. I worked on a farm when I left school and now looking to get back into it but so much has changed
Farmer family, grandfather was a 2nd generation farmer, my dad worked all his life, ended up for Claas UK before an accident that meant he could no longer work. I am now a chiropractor, fixing people instead of machines.
When I was a kid I worked on a neighbours farm a desperately wanted to be a farmer. Then I realised that, to be a farmer, you generally either had to be born into it or marry into it. I hadn’t been born into it and all of the local farmers daughters were rough as……. Now I build chemical plants and have a beautiful wife, but I really miss farming 😀😀!
I always wanted to be a farmer and bitterly regret not having the courage to follow my intentions. Now I’m retired having been in banking and not enjoying any of my time in that job.
Now in digital/precision Ag but did ag engineering at Writtle. Wanted to be design tractors and machinery but ended up in sales and had a stint as a machinery journalist. Only now really found (at 43) what I love doing. That said if I had a farm to farm I would do it tomorrow.
Wanted to work on my uncles farm when I was a lad and I'd grown up or become a digger driver but he sold the farm when I'd left school so when working on building site driving forklifts and then onto driving diggers and I'm nearly 40 and still driving diggers still wishing I was on the farms doing combining but never mind just watch your brilliant videos instead 👍
Grew up in the 70s farm labour late 70s early 80s, went in to engineering then the railway (installed most of the signal gantries you offten show in your video's) wished I had stopped in farming to this day :(
I wanted to be a farmer, was advised to go into forestry, became a surveyor, first of all land, then migrated to building/valuations … ! Plus a bit of ‘stunt’ driving (Top Gear Live etc) last worked in an office in 1980. Drove 7.5 ton trucks in the 2008 financial crisis … PS left school with 5 O levels … Uni is not essential
Wanted be a farmer ended up in ground works . site manager now but still get on the machines when I get a chance . Tractor driving didn’t pay as well as driving machines on site so that was that . Maybe one day I can afford to make the switch
I wanted to be a tractor driver when I was younger but ended up being a mechanical fitter and use my annual leave to go to demo days anf agricultral show.
I am thoughly enjoying your videos +your endless chatter explaining everything.Im 74 now & worked on small farms pitchfork in hand harvesting I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF EVERY DAY in all weathers, just the smell of being in the countryside & all it stands for there's nothing like it Thanks Ollie from The Vale of Belvoir

Farmer family, grandfather was a 2nd generation farmer, my dad worked all his life, ended up for Claas UK before an accident that meant he could no longer work. I am now a chiropractor, fixing people instead of machines.

You are a proper team
When I was a kid I worked on a neighbours farm a desperately wanted to be a farmer. Then I realised that, to be a farmer, you generally either had to be born into it or marry into it. I hadn’t been born into it and all of the local farmers daughters were rough as……. Now I build chemical plants and have a beautiful wife, but I really miss farming 😀😀!
Rough as 🤣🤣🤣
I wanted to be a pro footballer or pro golfer but farming simulator and these videos and Clarksons farm has made me want to be a farmer
I always wanted to be a farmer and bitterly regret not having the courage to follow my intentions. Now I’m retired having been in banking and not enjoying any of my time in that job.
I would love to give my job up at Aston Martin and go back to farming certainly miss it this time of year
evening olly, nice content as usual cheers.
Now in digital/precision Ag but did ag engineering at Writtle. Wanted to be design tractors and machinery but ended up in sales and had a stint as a machinery journalist. Only now really found (at 43) what I love doing. That said if I had a farm to farm I would do it tomorrow.
I already know what I want to be when I grow up, I want to be a farmers son
I’m a young lad and my fathers a farmer and I want to be one too 👍
Lived in country side all my life wanted to be a farmer as a child. Now I'm an accountant at Corporate Finance🙄
Wanted to work on my uncles farm when I was a lad and I'd grown up or become a digger driver but he sold the farm when I'd left school so when working on building site driving forklifts and then onto driving diggers and I'm nearly 40 and still driving diggers still wishing I was on the farms doing combining but never mind just watch your brilliant videos instead 👍
Grew up in the 70s farm labour late 70s early 80s, went in to engineering then the railway (installed most of the signal gantries you offten show in your video's) wished I had stopped in farming to this day :(
I wanted to be a farmer, was advised to go into forestry, became a surveyor, first of all land, then migrated to building/valuations … ! Plus a bit of ‘stunt’ driving (Top Gear Live etc) last worked in an office in 1980. Drove 7.5 ton trucks in the 2008 financial crisis … PS left school with 5 O levels … Uni is not essential
I never wanted to be a farmer but ended up running one lol
Wanted be a farmer ended up in ground works . site manager now but still get on the machines when I get a chance . Tractor driving didn’t pay as well as driving machines on site so that was that . Maybe one day I can afford to make the switch
I wanted to be a tractor driver when I was younger but ended up being a mechanical fitter and use my annual leave to go to demo days anf agricultral show.
90% today. The dream job when I was a child would of been a fast jet pilot but I chose to be a joiner instead.
