- We were invited over by Peacehill Farm to see their rye harvest near Fife in Scotland. Donkey and Gazza couldn't resist bringing the 4220 and Smyth trailer to see how she faired against the Stewart Roadkings and the steep Scottish hills! 💪
GRASSMEN are the fast-paced, global agriculture phenomenon whose video content and merchandise are recognised worldwide. The business was started in 2009 by current director Gareth Gault, known to fans as ‘Donkey’. His love and passion for machinery allowed him to experiment with cameras and upload content to CZcams. To his surprise, a large following soon developed and the niche in the market for real-life, documentary, farming and machinery action made it possible to drive the brand forward.
We at GRASSMEN, pride ourselves on providing an exclusive look into agricultural manufacturers, meeting real, working farmers, showing and demonstrating farming machinery through all seasons such as silage and slurry, and ultimately educating and entertaining our fans.
If you love all things agriculture from top manufacturers such as John Deere, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, JCB, Land Rover and many many more, come and join #teamgrassmen, we would love to have you.

The comfort of modern tractors sitting in near armchair seats having a normal conversation. I remember the Ford 7000 a passenger standing and we shouting to talk. Happy days
Good video and an impressive set up. It's good to see you didn't edit out the squeaky moments, well at least not three of them! I hope it reminds us all that these machines are not toys and the hills and hollows will bite us no matter how much it all costs, how shiny it is or how good we think we are. Have fun and don't be afraid to slow down and make it home...............a little later at times. Love from Cornwall.

Hi Grassmen keep up the good work and stay safe im from Fermanagh
That Smith trailer is massive
The steep hills look very nice, but I think it's not easy to farm there😉👍
very good video
What about getting Gary a nice new front weight for the fastrac. Might help on the hills.
Nice one
If you want to see a huge pit, you should pay a visit to Pretoria Energy in Cambridgeshire, that AD plant and the pits are huge.
Can they keep their trailer upright these days? 😉
Great video,great bit's of kit.Great to see the two of you together in the same cab.Hopefully more video's like this.
At last,loading on the correct side !!

A lot of horse power in that line up
The right hand side is always the right side

🖐️🇫🇷Bretagne 👍👍
God that is some country.... I worked for a contractor back in the mid 00s we pulled one of the 1st tri axels from Sam Smith.... she was a hand full... some trailer 15 year ago monster....
my local area
Well
Good advert for those roadking tyres!
Went to college with Ross Forster who has that farm.
Is the idea of AD plants not to save burning coal and fossil fuels to produce electricity? How many litres of diesel are being burnt to produce the feedstuff for that AD plant?
I always think the same might as well put diesel straight in a generator,save a lot of work
11x 200hp plus tractors hauling 4x tractors on the pit 2x foragers and that just harvest,then there’s digging it out of the pit and establishment etc …..
It's somethings like 600 or 700 cubic meters of gas the plant produces per hour 24/7/365 there is a lot to get the crop in but it produces a colossal amount of gas. Which is pumps as gas to homes etc not into generators.
Looks like that BigX could use a counterweight... Also, maybe it's just me, but I'm not at all surprised that a small FastTrac would have trouble with that kind of load, at that kind of grade. They're geared for speed, not grunt, and the particular model you have is *way* too small for work like that. Having said that, the heaviest FastTrac you can get would likely *still* have problems with it.
FastTracs may be good at road-travel, but they are *not* good at pulling loads up grades (or field-work in general). That's not what they were designed to do. Just look at how under-built they are. If you tried ballasting it down with that kind of load behind it, it would probably break in half lol. There's a reason why wheel-weights are a rare sight on FastTracs. Care to guess what that reason is? lol I'll give you a hint... "Crash, bang, boom."
What do you make of the tyres on fassy
What is the name of the song in the end? Great video! 👍🏻👍🏻
12.46 claas driver having a bit of a brown trouser moment….
It looked like a nice day for hanging out your washing, fortunately.
Guys you were in the Kingdom of Fife.. Not near it..
what do you think is better john deere or fendt
Maybe just use the diesel it takes to produce the gas instead It'd save alot of hassel
most of the green deal is a scam,,,planting trees that close they kill each other off,,but it looks good on paper and fools the public
Just dont touch the sacred airplanes seems to be there approach.

I drove past when you took the team pictures, I don’t understand why good land is used for this, or how the cost inputs work. Even worse food is going into a few ADs, rather than selling it.
I don’t understand what you are saying rlly but there is nothing wrong with using the land for this it’s for animal feed so you can eat your beef mate
@@probro1116 Is it though? Donkey mentions it's for an A.D. Plant at the farm. You can use the digestate for feriliser though.
Generous government incentives for biogas. Profits from growing a good crop on difficult land
@@probro1116 They produce bio gas which is injected into the gas network or burn the gas to generate electricity. They are not feeding animals with the silage.
What happened to gazza
2nd
put frount weight on it
First
Ew, jcb.
Grassmen i love your videos, but Carbon and black smoke . dinosaur way of thinking, Time you got green like the grass u cut. Don't fail on nature
Farming is about reducing the rate at which carbon is released back into the atmosphere. Plus farmers have done more than anyone to reduce wildfires and intentional burning of cropland. Don't fail to think things through.
