    A lot of guy that have been farming for many years find it hard to change. I love how the Ginge has so much wisdom and experience but he is always open to new ideas and technology that grow the farm and make it better.

    Wow! What a great vlog thanks Tom. I could be there every day for a year and I'd still find new things to impress me. The size of that clamp, 70 litres output a day per cow (give or take), the skill of the chopper and trailer operators, the wagons..... Fantastic! Thanks to Penny for organising it too. Stay well all 👌🏻

    Thanks for the video Tom. WoW a farm with its own quarry, and all the rest is crazy big. So many tractors, trucks, and machine shops. Oh my!! I learned a cool cow is a happy cow and the methane digester thing makes electricity as well is mad cool .

  • @davidepool5884
    @davidepool5884 Před 8 měsíci +3

    That’s a massive operation. They have their hands into so many different things and it all seems to work so well. So much equipment, and cattle. I would imagine that their operation is worth millions. It was a very interesting tour, I enjoyed it very much.

    I absolutely loved this video, thanks to you and to Metcalfe and to Steve (what an incredible asset to the operation at Metcalfe).
    The knowledge that Steve had of the operations was astounding, you couldn't have asked for a better representative to take you round. I was in complete awe as to how they utilize the land (3200 acres I thought he said) and how diverse it is as a whole. Wonderful job! he was a complete charmer ❤

    Tom's favourite new word is 'WOW' 😂 Great video. Very interesting to see farming on a big scale but clean and good for the environment. To see healthy animals producing a wonderful nutritious product is fantastic. In my view, Metcalf Farms should be applaud for their business practices 👍👏and its something to aspire to be for smaller farms too. 👏 All the best Pemberton Family. 😊

    Diversification can be the key to survival and success, but the level demonstrated here, on a literal industrial scale, is mind boggling. Looks like a fantastic operation, the cows are rockstars, and the skill level of the equipment operators…just wow!
    I often lead with a disclaimer that “reverse is not my best gear,” yet Metcalfe have a driver racing around an obstacle course of a field in reverse while chasing the chopper and another one also reversing in to replace them…I stand humbled!! 😂

  • @meghainn2010
    @meghainn2010 Před 8 měsíci

    That's an immensely huge set up with all those small industries combining into basically one. When I see the heavy lift trucks on the motorway I've always thought oh that was a family farm that's closed down and diversified into a heavy haulage outfit.

  • @redadestaffsnffc09
    @redadestaffsnffc09 Před 7 měsíci

    Wow one of your best videos Tom obviously Metcalfs are big in the haulage industry, assume you were referring to their MOD Movement business/ contract as they are the main hauliers for the MOD VEHICLE MOVEMENT. To being able to see or discuss everything Tom.
    I assume they fetch their novapro from YELO enterprise near Stratford upon Avon, we haul loads out of there for k w alternative feeds to our depot to put in mixes for their customers around Staffordshire, Cheshire,Shropshire etc.
    We also produce sodawheat for them.
    Never knew their farm was that big at all. Very interesting and mind blowing all in one. Thanks for the video. Mammoet main UK site is down the road from our depot in hixon on the airfield.
