Part 2 of SERIOUS GRASS sees the story
of Andrew Atkinson, his Lancashire
dairy farm and his classic tractor
fleet continue.
In Part 1 we followed a Ford 8630
tractor from Suffolk to its new home
on
Andrew’s farm and saw it put through
its paces in its new surroundings and,
in Part 2, we see it in use on the
Mengele trailed forage harvester for
the first time.
As before there is plenty of chopper
action including the mighty Ford 8830
on the Claas Jaguar 71, but we also
visit during other times of the year
and find Andrew busy pasture topping,
hedge cutting and spraying with the
Ford 7810 Silver Jubilee tractors as
well as manure spreading with a blue
version and fertiliser spreading with
one of the 10 Series John Deere
machines. And Stephen even gets behind
the wheel of a Silver Jubilee!
But it is the chopping that really
fascinates once again with all the
classic tractors at work, alongside
some newer examples, and the whole
operation is caught in full – making
this DVD just as SERIOUS about grass
as
the first installment.
If you thought you knew Andrew and his
tractors from Part 1, then Part 2 will
make you realise that you did not know
the full story at all! This is truly
SERIOUS GRASS by anyone’s standards!
