Did anyone else watch this last night? I found it fascinating.

Jimmy from Jimmy's farm is travelling the country visiting some unusual farms.
Last night they showed how they pick peas for birdseye (there is a birdeye "pea taster" and he has to taste them on the day and say if the can be picked or not, like the man from Del Monte :lol:) They also showed how they use unwanted CO2 from sugar refining to grow tomatoes and other interesting stuff :D
 
yes me!! I loved Jimmys Farm so had to watch this too. I thought it was mad how the combine works, measuring the crop load then matching it with the satellite maps to work out where to put chemical fertilizer! 300k though for a Combine :lol:
This is definately worth a watch, even if its just for Jimmy as he is quite yummy :D
 
ive recorded it for OH but Im going into hiding when he watches it :rotfl: do you know how many conversations a day I have to hear about combines :bored: :oops: mowers.....tractors....drills.... :shhh: :rotfl:
 
I watched it- I loved Jimmys farm. The dh has been there to check it out too.
i was cringing though as i met the turkey farmer man at one of my dh's work do's and it brings back bad memories- nothing dodgy just vague memories of making turkey noises at the bar in between sambuca shots! :rotfl:
