Share your favorite real life farming videos.

Post by chedly_farms »

I shared in a post from a week ago, that I like to watch real life farming videos, to research how I want to play FS19. I like to play region specific, to a degree. I enjoy UK style farming and being from the US, I'm not familiar seeing it first hand. And I like seeing equipment in action before I use it. The reason being, it inspires me to play as real to life as possible, and it gives me a sense of immersion. There are also different things I pick up along the way. For example, mods I see and think, "what is the purpose of that?". Then I'll be watching a video and they will use a tool, and I will think, "I have to use that now!". For me, It really makes the game come more to life.

Okay so with all background as to why I made this thread out of the way. Let's see your favorite farming videos. I'll start with a couple of videos I've been watching from Flawborough Farms in the UK around Nottingham.




Edit don_apple: topic moved to 'Off-Topic', since it is not directly related to the game.

How do you post one? Do you have to put it on YouTube first or is there another way? Just curious cause I have a few with winter stuff I do.

Can’t go wrong with George Saunders on YouTube.... great videos and a great character. Oh and for anyone in the U.K. check out Born Mucky life on a farm on Quest 21:00 every Tuesday. Sorry if it’s a little off topic

My favorite IRL videos are from TractorSpotter and MN Millennial Farmer. I started watching Tractor Spotter 3 days ago and it is an awesome channel. There’s hardly any dialogue, but it is really cool seeing what the Dutch do to their machinery. MN Millennial Farmer is the one I go to when I want a IRL video with a backstory, where you follow the person around the farm.
Side note, but general FS YouTubers for me are Daggerwin and The Squad (and all related channels to his). Check ‘em out!

To cheer everyone up a little on blue monday :-) , some New Holland tractors and the very first Schuitemaker Rapide 7200 fitted with a sliding axle (called a schuifas in Dutch) in action.
The wagon was bought by this contractor in 2018 and back then already stood out because of the large 850/50R30.5 Trelleborg Twin Radial 30,5 inch tires. In 2019 the front axle was replaced with a sliding axle which on the field pushes the wheels out just as on the Robusta slurry tanks, so they don't run in the same track as the wheels on the rear axle.

Dang, that's a lot simpler than a crab steer trailer.

Copy the link from youtube (you only need the last bit behind the last / ) and put it in between [youtube][/youtube]
Quote any of the posts above with a video in it to see how it is done.

You only need the U1Z3KTFn2fw bit in between the tags to make it work ;-)
I'm also following Organic Dairyman (South Dakota) for about 1,5 years now, quite like the way he makes his video's, the channel is worth a visit.
