- We still have a couple of 1st cut fields to harvest but we don't get enough sunny days to dry the hay.
We got one fairly clear day so we decided to cut a field of seeded grass to top up our summer silo. Just as we were finishing a rain shower hit us again but we finished on time.
Thanks for watching!

Farmer's POV (Point of View) is a channel where I share videos of different chores that are going on on our small family farm in Slovenia. We have 60 heads of cattle, mainly simmetal breed and we milk about 35 of them. We farm in a fairly hilly area so our equipment is relatively small. Currently we own 4 tractors: Fiat DT55-56, New Holland TN70DA, Deutz Fahr Agroplus 85 and John Deere 5085M. We work around 20 hectares of mainly grass fields and about 2,5 hectares for silage corn. We also have 7 hectares of forest.
I love how simplified everything is on your farm.
Silo is full again👍💪! And right finished, when the rain came, lol 👀😁👍! Great job! Greetings from Bavaria!
Yes sir 😁 thank you 🙂
deamnnn that grass looks good :D
Well done 👏 very satisfying having all your own equipment and not having to pay others to help
Once again a lovely Video on your channel!
Greetings from Bavaria 😊
Well done getting it before rain 👍👍
That looked a good crop 👍 and you finished just in time 😁👌
Yes! 😁
best part is when you put the camera on the forage wagon 😁 thanks for sharing this video
Thank you, for very nice video.
Great video, thanks!
Хорошая трава,отличная работа,👍
Beautiful grass👍
Hello from Ontario Canada love watching how you farm ,great video
Hi, thank you 🙂
I really enjoy watching the videos of the farm, it is very quiet and peaceful. 😊
Nice 🙂
Awesome video Gasper that looked like one fine crop of grass off the field you reseeded was it heavier than the first cut It must be so good to have a second cut done so early in the year First cut is only start here in the last couple of weeks everything is late because we had so much rain
Always a joy to watch looking forward to the next one
Best wishes from Ireland 🇨🇮
Thank you 🙂 yes a little higher yield than 1st cut.
At least you can get in the fields now, hopefully you'll get a nice summer and fall 🤞 thanks again! 🙂

Thank you 🙂
Pięknie pokazana robota 👏👍🇵🇱
Odličen video
Pozz from Bosnia to Slovenia 💥😁👍
What a beautiful farm, in a beautiful area with beautiful cows and grass, well done. This farm feels so cohesive with the land it’s built on. How long has it been here?
Thank you 🙂 unfortunately I don't know exactly but at least from 1869.
Looks like a very nice crop. Ours definetly won't be so good, it has been too dry. Other crops are suffering too.
Too dry, thats surprising 🤔
@@farmerspov4709 yeah we've only had 8mm of rain in May and record amount of hot days.
Lepa trava ☘️ Ste že drugo zacel mi pa cakamo na lepse vreme da bo kaj suhega 🙃 koruza vredi raste ali vam jo je kaj odneslo od deza🤔 super video 👍
Ja, tud mi čakamo, da lahko prvo do konca pospravimo 🙃 ne, koruza je zaenkrat v redu 👍
Might be expensive but you could propably get an Insta 360 Camera and mount it to the outside of the tractor for more different camera shots.
it proly wouldnt fit to the Chanel name "Farmers POV" tho since it is a different angle at that point.
Yeah that would be nice 😀 oh I try to get different angles anyway 🙃
why do you have such a beautiful gras?, great video.
Enough moisture and sun I guess 😀 thank you 🙂
👍👍
Great video, any idea how the yields were on this second cut compared to the first?
A little higher this round.
Great videos!! How many litres do the cows give a year on average? Watching you from Belgium, grtz
Thanks 🙂 around 7200 l.
💥💪🤩
Just in time...
Yep 😅
👋👍
Xxxxx
hello, is that oats, winter rye or something else? thank you for content it is very interesting
Its mixture of grasses but mainly perennial ryegrass.
Excuse me, could you please tell me what kind of grass this is?
Its a mixture of perennial ryegrass, meadow fescue, orchard grass and some others.
@@farmerspov4709 Thank you 🫡
What is the cup inside ??
Sorry I don't know what you mean 🤔
Pridni ste, vsa čast 👍 Ko gledam tvoje videje zgleda, kot, da imate pri vas skoz lepo vreme :) Pri nas na savinjskem so vsak dan plohe. Še sreča, da sm se sam zasukal in zbaliral pred 1. majem, sicer bi zdajle imel samo starino, ki ne bi bila za ničesar. Še za baliranje je problem, kaj šele za sušit....
Hvala 🙂 haha, ja, ponavadi snemam takrat ko je lepo in se dela 😁 ja res je 👍
Where you guys from? Where is this located?
Slovenia
Hello from British Columbia, Canada! Just curious, why do you tedder the grass before gathering it? wouldn't wetter be better?
It has to dry a little for optimal fermenting, too wet can cause spoilage and water running from the silo. Greetings to Canada 👋
how many cattle you milk ???
34 cows
Witam, w tym sezonie 6 cięć będziesz miał. Ile dajesz nawozów mineralnych NPK na hektar rocznie na łąki, kukurydzę?
Maybe 😁 well we use 1375 kg NPK and around 5 tons of KAN (CAN) a year on 22 hectares.
@@farmerspov4709 Życzę dobrej kontynuacji✋
Zivjo zakaj greš z silažo tok čez stene? Hvala
Da lahko spravimo še koruzo not in da ni prehuda klančina na koncu.
How old was you when you started too be farmer Pow
I was 23 when I started this channel.
Why do you use the deutz on the wagon not the jd??
Cünkü jd daha ağır olduğu için slajı bastırıyor
John Deere is Heavier for compact
What is the name of that crop?
Its grass mix, but mainly perennial ryegrass.
After you run the dryer on the grass, how long do they let it dry and then pick it up with the trailer?
Depends on the weather. After the second pass with the tedder we let it dry for just a couple of hours, but we were in a hurry.

ah ok that's good I thought the hay thing needed more time, thanks for responding
Well this is for silage, hay needs more drying time, usually at least one day.
@@farmerspov4709 oh okay, in the videos you can even see the milking of the cows, how they process the milk, make cheese or something, or do they sell it directly?
@@ElGalloJey we sell raw milk directly but we make some cottage cheese and yogurt for ourselves.
Nice video, I like your farm and the way you run it!
What is the reason you use two different tractors for dividing and packing? Can’t you just attach the divider to the John Deere?
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thank you 🙂 there is a wall on one end of the silo and if I put the roller on the back of the JD I can't compact all the way to the wall until its full enough.
In this instance I could use the JD but the roller was already on the Fiat. I would need front hydraulic on JD.
@@farmerspov4709
Aha, you want to back up to the wall for maximum compaction. That would be possible if you mounted the roller in front of the tractor. But since you don’t have front linkage/hydraulics and do have the 4th tractor this is the way to go at the moment. I get that; makes sense.
First
ti že drugo mi še prve nismo pokusl k je slab vreme
Ja, no sej tud mi še nismo konc s prvo ampak je treba več dni lepega vremena za posušit 🙃
Why dit you use only 1 silopit?
We wanted to fill it up so its ready when we finish the silo we're now feeding from.
Hi, nice video ✌️
It's not possible for you to feed out of two bunks?
Maybe the half filled one, to keep the feed fresh and the corn lasts longer.
Thanks 🙂 I'm not sure if it would work 🤔
bo treba u spredno kosilnco investirat😂
Poj bo prehit narjen 😋
Man here in Iceland most farmers don't even have their 1st cut and you are on the 2nd.
Yeah it started early for us this year. When do they usually start in Iceland?
@@farmerspov4709 in the south, west and east they start around this time of year depending on weather which is very wet at the moment. In the north and the Westfjords region they start in mid to late june.
Edit: a perfect example just happened, in parts of the north-east they are expecting snow next week and here in the south temperatures are expected to be between 1°C to 10°C over next week.
Serious work lad, love watching the vids especially while in Copper Face Jacks. Just wondering if you’ve named any of the cows, my mate smidger loved your videos but he’s been a bit sick lately he’d love if you named one of the cows after him. Greetings from Carrick🫡
Yes, all our cows have names 😉
👍👍
