BIG SPUDS, LITTLE SPUDS, STONES AND CLAY - POTATO GRADER
Рет қаралды 36,950
3 жыл бұрынIn todays video we use our latest piece of equipment to grade the spuds. We needed to do this because there was too much clay in the box with the spuds and some of the spuds had started to sprout.
Hope you enjoy, any questions hit me down in the comments below, thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe for more. Videos every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday.

Many years ago I spent hours working on a machine just like that one. Riddling Spuds in Lincolnshire. The spuds were pied down for the winter time in long straw and earth pies, clamps perhaps ?.Single cylinder Lister engine pounding away all day, no electric power available. Yes three different sizes mainly, little ones usually went to the pigs eventually. Out in the field, cold, wet sometimes, frosty usually. Sometimes had to use an axe to break the soil off the pie. Spuds usually OK because wrapped in straw. Remember it well. Temember too the Potato Marketing Board coming and pouring purple die all over the spuds to stop them being sold, reason ?. To keep the price up in the shops . We still managed to salvage a few bags full though. You need a proper tatie fork, tines with a round ball on the ends.

Memories there.. we used to grow 150 acres of spuds back 25 year ago.. would have to grade 5 tones every evening and take them to Dublin markets for early morning... don't miss standing in a cold shed at 10 o clock at night grading and bagging after been working all day ...

The mild weather has them sprouting Phil. Removing the soil will make no difference if it stays mild. That severe frost last night should slow it down. The earlier varieties like Queens would be sprouting. Later varieties like Roosters would be fine.

Have the same unit here, expect it has and extra layer and conveyor on the side so can separate into 4 sizes. Will pile up the soil underneath over time but great for putting on veg patch or flower bed. Important to keep it level. Watch out for the lift conveyor getting jammed at the top.

Don't know if there is such a thing as a "potato grape" available these days. It's like a multi pronged fork with thick rounded ends on the end of each prong to stop you spearing the spuds and picking up soil.

They are farmers... that is to say every farmer at one time produced most of their needs... but farmers were advised to stop because it was more cost effective to keep another cow or an extra acre of barley etc so the knowledge was lost ... but listening to Phils father and uncle they still have it and actively passing it on

I'm 58 and grew up on a 50 acres farm in westmeath and remember that time when we had every thing for ourselves... basically tea and sugar was bought.. .. still remember when the garden was grassed over .... look it was very different times some say good times... but maybe the jury is still out on that one ... anyway Phil keep up the good work
