That would have been epic! Coming from a family that farms, its hard to empathize with the people living so close to the field. Hopefully that field remains hay and doesn't get converted to a row crop, cause then they better expect late late nights on more than one occasion.
Worked as an emergency services despatcher for years and took countless calls from people ringing because the pub they moved next to that has been there since the 1800s has people in its beer garden drinking and talking on a summers day...genuinely.
Look up 'Maurice the Coq' a major case in French courts, which I'm glad to say, was a poultry win! Maurice continues to rouse our community, in spite of the towns people who think they can have perfect silence when they choose!
It's happening really bad here right now , the great exodus from NYC. I'm like 90 miles north of there , and you can spot their rude asses a mile away. We call em cityiots.
Actually.... Those country folks were home. The big city landscaper travelled a long distance for that quick gig. Its not commercial farming... Its unmowed grass on a desolate unmaintained piece of land.
I am 80, I have lived in the English Countryside the whole of my life. I am not a farmer, but many a night I've lain in bed listening the hum of machinery working the nearby fields and I have thought to myself: they are growing and providing my food. Thank you chaps. There are probably a 100 million people in the world who would happily swap with me, and contentedly nod off to sleep.
@sam griess yeah, I suppose this was a bit of a lower priority and all his daylight hours were taken up by more important tasks. Finding the time to fit it in.
People love to move next to a farm to "get away" and then demand the farmers conform to city norms. Move by the airport and then complain about the planes while you're at it.
yeah when we moved next to a farm the first year they harvested till 2 am but it's not like we complained I mean that is their living and we need them to keep living the only thing my mom asked was that they didn't crop dust and if they do call us in advance because my mom knows someone who died from that
Idiots like that think food comes from Tesco's. Not one clue to how it is produced. Just wait tel spring, when the farmers start spreading manure on the fields!
I hear this work all hours day and night and I've always felt it was somewhat comforting. And the farms owners are so nice. Literally either shooting or running equipment 24/7. And I love being here.
@ian humphreys agreed or finish next day , apparently no one in comments feel these people deserves peace in there own home at 10pm , he is not even cropping ...
MECHANICAL WIND-UP more likely agricultural contractors, as he did mention he comes from a distance away. Nowadays they do what they do well into the night as most people who live in the countryside know it is only for a short while then the field will be left alone for probably weeks. You are probably the sort of person who complains about NYE fireworks, best you better go and cuddle your blanky. Lol
Obviously you're not a farmer. Most farmers have a day job too. And if they don't, the farm is too large to get everything done in 8 hours. Summertime, days are 16-18 hours long. And since he's mowing grass, it has to be done before it rains so it doesn't rot before they bale it.
We have this issue in the states, mostly from city people who move to rural areas. Here where I live in Texas a lady called the county sheriff on a local farmer who was plowing up his field because it was causing dust to come into her yard. The sheriff came out and after hearing her complaint just laughed and said "Welcome to the country" and drove off.
I have this exact problem a couple years ago. Two old codgers from London came stomping around my farm shouting at workers and demanding that they stop working. They said they wanted to get the place shut down, all because we couldn't quite finish before the 10.00pm curfew on this one single occasion. A curfew, I might add, that we ourselves placed on the farm. It's not the law here. The old woman said they'd been living here 12 years and just couldn't take it anymore, then proceeded to make fake sobbing sounds. The farm was built in 1972.
In harvest season, 6AM he may still be working from the morning before. He's just getting by on coffee, tobacco, stress, and just maybe some food his wife dropped off for him.
@JS-ch1hk Right about what exactly? The opinion part is up for debate but legally speaking the farmer is likely well within his rights. Farmers acting according to standard farming practices are generally exempt from nuisance complaints. That's why the farmer was encouraging them to call the police-may as well have them be told to kick rocks by an authority figure.
@JS-ch1hk You're welcome to look up the laws. In Canada, farmers are protected from nuisance complaints under the FFPPA when following normal farming practices. In the USA, almost every state has some right to farm laws that protect from nuisance complaints. In the UK, the threshold for a nuisance complaint regarding sound or smell is quite high and would not likely succeed if the farmers are following standard practice (which includes late evening work).
If you resort to that they can light a match close to your haystacks. And i think farmers equipment is usually a lot more expensive then what joe average has in possesion in their house so i would not recommend to escalate the situation.
I had a woman call the police because I was ploughing at night years ago, after a lot of shouting and bad language plus a few threats the police came and told her that the farm had been there much longer than her house and that we were entitled to work our fields as we needed to. Many people move into the "green" but don't want the life that is already there before them.
"I'll be done in 25 minutes" "Okay, so I'll make a scene for the next 30 minutes, get called an absolute idiot by the police and then I'll be forced to listen to you mowing after 11pm"
Part of my family lives on a farmland and whenever I go to visit I never ever complained about the noise in the evening. Shite, I even luved the sounds of those old diesels in the distance.
Blame Ireland, Spain and Europe governments for why they aren't. Continually classify Agri as "Unproductive" largely just to smear and falsely represent the UK.
@GodsChildforever7 It's not like he's mowing that field everyday, they just gotta hold out until he's done, or soundproof their bedrooms or something if it's that bad
If you combine the low and steady drone of the mowing with ear plugs, melatonin, and a white noise video you end up getting a very nice sleep situation.

I used to stay in a house one property that bordered a railroad. Nightly horns and the entire house vibrating became a normal thing that I would eventually come to miss.
I live in a Agricultural county and any farmer or vineyard can operate 24 hours a day. City folk freak out when the huge vineyard fans come on to prevent frost at 3am, or they are plowing 20 feet away from the houses at 2:00 AM.... But it sure looks pretty to live near it all, but they have to make a living off that "pretty".
I used to live in front of airport. And the highway was there. Train tracks behind me. Always hearing. Trucks airplanes. And trains. Biker bar up road also. 2 am. Harleys. Cranking. Didnt bother me. You get used to it.
You are a clown alright. There are many farmers that do not start farming a field at 10pm, the majority in fact, with few reasonable exceptions, you should not have to assume living next to a farm means 24/7 sound pollution.
In the philippines they have water pumps running at night til morning watering corns or onions,not every day maybe twice a week, its normal but not as noisy as tractor . They dont run tractors at night the farmers go to sleep, maybe some farmers do but its rare. So im not sure if whos on the right here, obviously its not philippines so idk 😅
@JS-ch1hk i think so too, maybe theres a history between them an argument a bad blood or something. Maybe its how u want your neighbors to treat u thing for me.
@JS-ch1hk The reason british farming is in such a sorry state right now is because of people like you, If you move in next to a farm, expect the farm to make noise Moron
@JS-ch1hkthe farmers were there before the residential area, if you don’t like that you can ram your opinions right back up your back side and get the hell out of here you opinionated waste of space, so keep your trap shut cause no one wants to here it.
When I was taking a farm management class in college the instructor told of a dispute between a hog farmer and a neighboring subdivision where the residents took the farmer to court over the smell. It turned out the hog farm had been there for years before the subdivision was built and the residents acknowledged in court they knew the hog farm was there when they bought their homes. The judge ruled they could buy out the farmer at his price if he wanted to sell or they would have to live with it if he didn't, since he was there before the subdivision.
@@kenorose5873 I work nights, should I call the police because neighbours cutting grass while I try to sleep? Of course not, I understand that by working nights I will expect noise while I sleep.

@@kenorose5873 😂😂 ye people do still work and live and have children like farmers but they dont have spare time to do a field when it suits the houce near by. Simple answer is if you dont like how it works in the countryside then go live in a town or city

I worked for a rancher who's family has been on the land for 4 generations. We were out mowing hay a birdwatcher wandered in as they do. He kindly asked her to leave because she was trespassing and endangering herself being in the way of equipment. She got all huffy and asked for our boss's phone number like this, he gave it to her, she called, and the look on her face when he picked up his phone and told her to get the fk off his property is an absolutely golden memory.
I live opposite a farm and I frequently see their machinery's lights going at 10pm, 11pm around the farmhouse about quarter of a mile away. Although the field immediately closest to me is usually for cows these days, they did used to have crops in there many years ago. I can't say I've ever personally been bothered by the noise of machinery, but even if I was, earplugs exist. The smell after they've used the muck spreader could be pretty potent, but that's the reality of living near a farm.
I have a "friend" who purchased a house next to an airport for 30% below market value. At first he wouldn't shut up about the deal he got now he won't shut up about the noise lol
he did have male Karen traits but handled it sorta well. In the U.S. a male Karen would've gone in front of the mower and said run me over then call the cops.
@@w0keryp0pery39 it’s funny I live close to a field like I could throw a rock from my garden and it would land in the field and the noise doesn’t bother me at all
Exactly. Just like the folks here in the States that move right next to an airport, then start bitching about the noise. Many airports have been closed because of that.
but as much fun as the jeff's that move next to a race track knows that race cars are loud and run on race tracks then complains and race tracks get shut down, Sniff sniff goodbye Laguna Seca. and a shit ton of local dragways.
Hearing the tractors working the fields at night is one of my fondest memories growing up in a village, that and the clear air and the smell of the fields after being harvested, I don't see why city folk move to the country if they don't like it, I guess they live the smell of take aways and the sound of sirens more.
15 people living in one house lol if they get this mad about a tractor in a field next to their house I would hate to see how they argue over the bathroom
Here in Missouri, urban spread is becoming increasingly common. Subdivisions are being built next to farms that have been owned by the same families for generations. If you build your home next to a hog farm that's been there long before you were born and want to complain about the smell, go back to the city!
Yeah fck those city people, they aren't real they live in a strange weird reality they don;t know sjit about the country life whining in their fcking EV's with their apple products. I really and REALLY dislike city people. im from The Netherlands and i start even to dislike the country because its getting a concrete jungle more and more and i can't stand these fckin leftoids.
Too bad. they will continue to move out here unless are states governors stop them. They are coming here in droves like migrants. I never saw homeless people in my small rural hometown growing up. Now I see them hiking along the highway and sleeping outside the gas station which now had to start closing sooner due to crime.
Yeah, can you imagine running outside to yell at taxis honking at each other at 10:00 pm in downtown area? They would think you are crazy. Just line this farmer probably thinks this guy is crazy. I mean a tractor and mower is loud but it isn’t crazy loud.. and 5acres? That would only take about 30 min with your average brush hog.
Most places have ordinances for noise past 10pm. You can call the police for stuff like this. I was honestly surprised the commenters here siding with the guy on the tractor.
@@FastlaneProductions1 you got a point too but when you live actually in the city, you can't just call the police on the natural traffic that's outside, or the sirens from the cops, the sounds of the helicopters passing by or the people talking even yelling and cars racing lol the only way that would work is if you live in a residential area outside the city or in the outskirts
@@limerind7493 How does this work because that bit stood out to me? Why are the windows tight and what's the issue with bringing the equipment in from far away? Serious question.
@@jeffdredd1172 many farmers rent land from owners that may be a good distance away from their farm, and have very tight window timeframes depending on weather, other pressing jobs, etc
You have 75 hours to plant and cover 600acres before the big storm cell rolls through and makes the field too soft for the equipment...........ready? GO!
Farming at 10pm is completely normal. That's why farming equipment has such high intensity led lights. I've seen farmers farming at 1 am preparing a field.
@@David-cc8xe 5 acres is a field. If you'd listened he mentioned he came from far away. IE, this is a satellite plot. Probably many. We have several 10 acre ones among others that are miles away from the farm itself.
@@David-cc8xe Most farmers have smaller unconnected fields that they farm. It doesn't have to be one connected farm land, most farmers have a few small-acre-fields that they farm, or fields that they rent from other people.
To the guy's defense..this really should've been something that was discussed prior. I get the farmer has to work, but surely a simple chat with nearby families to come to an agreement on noise would've been the most professional way of handling this.
He is going to cry. Too many in that house. They don't get it. Farmers work so hard. If they put off till tomorrow, it could rain and then too late. Mother Nature not going to wiat.
@@elacomedido Listen, I'm just saying a simple courteous and professional chat when he realised he wasn't going to finish on time could've solved the problem. As he says there's only a few houses so it'd have taken no time. Yes his job is important but Professionalism is just decency.
@@ano3758 how speaking to them prior would solve anyting? "oh ok thanks for letting me know i wont wake up tired in the morning now" lol. they chose to live near a farm so they should expect that those kind of things would happen. the guy is already working at 10 PM and you expect him to waste time talking to neighbours.
We have farmers around us that farm late, too. I, myself, have had to chase cows at 1am, mend fences in the rain at 3am. My heart went out to this farmer who is just trying to get a job done. Farming is hard enough to get done without all these ridiculous antics from people who move to the country and bring their city ideas with them.
I sympathise too, but for years now we got construction here going till 2am, and on an adjacent site starting again at 4. needless to say, Ive been walking around sleepwalking for months. I can imagine living next to land with hired farm labor is quite the same. pressures on a modern day farmer are great, but that goes for a lowly employee starting his commute at 6 after two hours of sleep as well. the biggest noise problems come from day labourers as well, and traffic from and to fields. when farmers used to plow the fields they owned, this was nowhere near a problem. modern practices are crazy.
There's alot of spoiled ppl in this world, I learned that I do not want to live in a nice subdivision, I live in a somewhat subdivision in the country and it's nice but I learned there are alot of ppl that complain about the dumbest things in nice subdivisions, like the way somebody cuts their grass or a trees leafs fell off in the neighbors yard and blew into theirs, they act like it's the most horrible thing, I don't know how these ppl are ever happy at all but I always thought to myself I got real life issues to deal with while they ranted about someone else, these ppl would be so screwed if shtf lol
Completely agree. There's a spirit of entitlement out there. No one is prepared to be patient or to take into account the realities of the world, especially the realities of agriculture. Hard graft, long hours, very tight schedules.. and all to get the food on the table of someone who likely complains about lack of parking at Tescos, and how "hard" the drive to the supermarket is.
My house is on a 2 lane highway, along with 200 other houses. For 30 years now some of the new home owners on this highway have been harassing the city to "Move the highway".. every year there's a big fight over why the highway is there.
I would be upset too if a highway sneaked up on me like that! Trains and airports also sneak up on people, they are a menace and shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near where people live.
Effen Bamm they haven’t got a fucking clue, the little dick heads probably have never work a 10 hour day let alone a 16+hour day, Fucking city wankers, get educated
tbh its only 5 acres, not much of a "farmer" if he needs to mow at 10pm with a machine that could clearly mow, disc and bed that lot in a day no problem. Not enough info imo.
It's like people who complain about airport noise. I live in Northern Virginia, and I hear stories of people complaining about Dulles Airport. Dulles has been in operation for decades and the people who complain live in neighborhoods that are 15 yrs old or less. You bought there, deal with it.
The house could have been there long before diesel tractors with massive light bars became common farm tools. I do not know about UK laws but in Ohio farmers can legally work their fields after sunset but for safety reasons they can not move farm equipment on roads after dark. How were they going to get equipment out of there? In the future I hope they can plan their work in the field for a less objectionable hour of the day. It is always better to be considerate of your neighbors than just doing something because you can.
@@MrAjzetting I seriously doubt that he’s mowing this field at 10 “just because he can” anyone who has ever worked a blue collar job understands that when the work has to be done, it has to be done regardless of the time. If this guy was digging up the road to fix a broken sewer line at 10 pm at night, no one would be upset because he’s about to get the flow of sewage stopped, but since he’s doing something that people don’t think is important, it’s an inconvenience

@@alexanderbaronatte3252 Dude...people have work to finish before they can rest. Think a bit objectively. Seriously man I'll bet whatever you like that the farm existed before the "residential area".

Harvest for hey or grass is only best done when it has been sunny for a few days in a row. During that time window, heavy equipment goes out around the clock to harvest. It is normal for farming and people buying property should educate themselves, just like if you buy property next to a large factory.

Be kind to your farmers. They are working their asses off to make a living while providing for all of us. They don't choose the timing, weather and workload does. It can be loud and so on.. Only valid form of complaint in that case: "Hey mate, its 10 p.m., my kids can't sleep. What do you think, how long you'll need for the field?" - "Oh, sorry mate, I got to do this one and then the next one over, 20-30min and I'm done here" - "Ok thanks!" If it takes longer.. well, it takes longer.
yep. start in the early morning and finish up around midnight is about a typical harvest day for us. If these people walked up to anyone in our tractors or tried to block the way... they'd get 1. ignored and 2. ran over, bc we don't take a break when we're tired so why would we stop for idiot hour?
If any of those 15 people in the house worked (imagine if they ALL worked), they'd be wealthy enough to buy some ear plugs, move, or generally speaking PAY the farmer not to mow after 9pm.
We have these kinds of idiots here in Wisconsin too, move to the country next to a cabbage field and want something done about the smell, others build their homes next to a pig farm and complain about the smell, they call the sheriff and want something done about all the coyotes running around at night, and finally build a new house next to a drag strip that has been operating for over 30 years and complain about the noise. Some people are just stupid.

When I lived on the train tracks, we got woken up by the Amtrak shaking the house 3 times a night. You know what you're moving into when you move into an area whether it be rural or urban
Yes but the house may have been there long befor the field, if you buy a house overrlooking a pretty field you pay a premium for the view and peace, last thing you want is some bumpkin farmer turning up and trying to harvest it or grow chickens or something, it ruins the peacefulness of the countryside!
@@AM-td9jp The "countryside" is where farms are located, clueless human. FYI, building a house next to that beautiful field is never a good idea--farmers regularly "rotate" their crops, and at times they leave a field (or a few) "dormant" for a year or two, to let Nature replenish the nutrients (minerals) a particular crop they want to plant there in the future will need, in order to thrive. Not that city dwellers would ever realize such truth... lol
I live on a farm (in Africa) and one of the best sounds is the deep rumbling and rattling of tractors working in the night. It's the sound of life. Planting, reaping. The sound of people earning their living on the land and growing food for us all (and our animals). Bless the people who work at that time of night, while I'm snug in bed. XX
I always prefered doing stuff at night, not just because I'm an insomniac, but it's so much cooler at night. At least during the summer. Sucks being in the hot sun all day.
Maybe but it's about the tremendous noise from heavy machinery is a relatively recent thing in history. Still, silly to think they could resolve the situation by standing in front of the tractor.
Imagine moving to the country and then complaining about farmers. They're lucky he was using a somewhat quiet, modern tractor and not a john deere A like my dad does our field with

I remember, doing some HVAC jobs for a factory that had been there for over 90 years since WW1. When the Canadian government used it to manufacture weapons, now converted to making automotive parts for car plants. Years later the old factories and empty fields were purchased for residential homes around the east and north side of the factory. People started to complain about the lights being on for the 18 wheelers coming in and out for delivery and the noise of the trucks. We would get calls about the smell of the exhausts for processing of the plastic and the noise of the fans running when our cooling towers turned on or when the boiler stacks started to smoke. People would call the cops and city on the factory. The company built large sound proofing walls around the warehouse, they installed filters for the exhaust, and changed their schedule to please the people. The residents demanded more This went on for about 8 years. Eventually the factory closed and shipped over to Mexico and over 400 factory workers lost their jobs and 150 office staff. The people in the residents were happy, till all the shops around the neighborhood closed soon after and their property taxes went up.
