JohnDeereMan Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Hi, Thought I would post a few pics of my diroma, mainly because i'm hungover and cant be bothered to go outside to do any work. the buisness consists of two farms near each other. Farming about 170 acres between the two units mainly arable and grass. 150 ewes and about 30 cattle to fatten. The main side of the buisness is contracting focusing on foraging, combining, baling and wrapping, quadrant baling and muk spreading. Silage is made aswell to be clamped and sold over the winter. Anyway heres a few photos, any questions welcome. thanks photos coming soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MF-ROB Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Now thats a lovely layout alot of work has went into that keep the pictures coming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Lovely layout and it shows you have thought about the farm in its past as much as the present. The older tractors still working alongside the latest, just as a real farm would have it. The range of buildings from old to new, it looks like a great layout.

JohnDeereMan Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 A few recent pics, Taking our old chopper out for the last time today as we are getting a fresh one for the 2013 season! <a href="http://s1309.photobucket.com/user/joshberesford/media/GEDC0482_zpsbf6dc8fb.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1309.photobucket.com/albums/s629/joshberesford/GEDC0482_zpsbf6dc8fb.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo GEDC0482_zpsbf6dc8fb.jpg"/></a> Also, decided to tart up our old triffits trailer because it was looking a bit rough next to the kane trailers. <a href="http://s1309.photobucket.com/user/joshberesford/media/GEDC0483_zpsbfbb9367.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1309.photobucket.com/albums/s629/joshberesford/GEDC0483_zpsbfbb9367.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo GEDC0483_zpsbfbb9367.jpg"/></a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnDeereMan Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Right, been busy at the moment. Head gasket went on our 69 so we were short of tractors so had to borrow our neighbours deutz as he owed us a favour. Here you can see his tractor on our spreader putting 200kg/ha of 20:10:10 on the grass. Putting a bag in on the way to some of our land Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
