Testing the Combines and Checking the Barley and Raffling Off The Range Rover!

Get Your Tickets - https://pxfarms.myshopify.com/product... This is the moment we have been building towards all season. Harvest 2026 is finally here, and the combines are rolling into the barley. In this episode we take the first samples of the year, sweat on the moisture and the all important bushel weight, and find out whether the crops are going to be as kind as we hoped after such a difficult dry run. With four combines, chaser bins and lorries all coming to life at once, we also meet this year's harvest team, a brilliant international crew from Ireland, New Zealand and Australia, and explain the system that keeps it all running smoothly. Behind the scenes there is a new grain testing machine to speed up the weighbridge, the new fertiliser store taking its first tanks, and the small army of jobs it takes to get day one right. It is not all work. James is raffling his beloved green Range Rover, the swimming pool is finally being filled ready for the harvest party, and the famous harvest meal rota is revealed. We finish with the latest grain prices and an honest look at where the market sits as the first loads come in. From the first cut to the team behind it, this is another look behind the scenes of a modern farming business.
