-GUTO LEWIS

-Sychlyn, Welshpool

0:00:200:00:27

-January 2017

0:00:300:00:35

-I'm visiting Sychlyn Farm

-in Pool Quay, Welshpool.

0:00:360:00:40

-A young farmer, Guto Lewis,

-moved in recently.

0:00:400:00:43

-The farm is owned by the council.

0:00:430:00:46

-I've come to meet him.

0:00:460:00:47

-Guto!

0:00:480:00:49

-Guto!

-

-How are you?

0:00:490:00:51

-I'm very well, thanks.

0:00:510:00:53

-This is the first time

-I've seen you in your uniform!

0:00:530:00:56

-I usually see you at the mart,

-and you always wear a tie!

0:00:570:01:01

-Yes, I wear a tie at the mart!

0:01:010:01:03

-That's because of your work.

0:01:030:01:04

-That's because of your work.

-

-Yes, I sell meal.

0:01:040:01:05

-That's my job from Monday to Friday.

0:01:060:01:08

-I visit farms.

0:01:080:01:10

-That's how I make a living.

0:01:110:01:13

-I work on the farm in the evening

-and at weekends.

0:01:140:01:17

-It's a lovely place.

0:01:170:01:19

-I'm very fortunate,

-I've found a decent place.

0:01:200:01:23

-How many acres?

0:01:230:01:25

-I have 86 acres here, and I rent

-another 50 acres a mile away.

0:01:250:01:30

-I'm very fortunate.

0:01:300:01:31

-Is it a long-term rental?

0:01:320:01:33

-Is it a long-term rental?

-

-I've been here since June 2013.

0:01:330:01:36

-I'll be here

-for another five years...

0:01:370:01:40

-..and I hope I can renew

-for a further eight years.

0:01:400:01:43

-You haven't been here long...

0:01:440:01:46

-..but I'm sure

-you've made some improvements.

0:01:470:01:51

-Yes - all the basics

-were here when I arrived...

0:01:520:01:55

-..the buildings,

-a slurry tower, cubicles.

0:01:560:01:59

-I had to make lots of changes.

0:02:000:02:02

-But when you know

-you'll be staying for a while...

0:02:020:02:06

-..you don't mind

-making an investment.

0:02:060:02:09

-It's a lovely place.

0:02:090:02:10

-It's a lovely place.

-

-The view is splendid

0:02:100:02:12

-You've been moving muck around.

0:02:120:02:15

-I didn't see it, but I can smell it!

0:02:150:02:18

-Tell me, what you are doing

-at the moment?

0:02:180:02:21

-Come with me -

-we'll take a look at the stock.

0:02:220:02:25

-Excellent!

0:02:280:02:30

-Everything looks so neat, and

-the buildings are close together.

0:02:300:02:35

-What's in here - in-calf heifers?

0:02:380:02:40

-What's in here - in-calf heifers?

-

-Yes, in-calf heifers.

0:02:400:02:42

-Come on, girls.

0:02:430:02:44

-What's your system, Guto?

0:02:450:02:47

-You have lots of cattle.

0:02:470:02:49

-You buy heifers, do you?

0:02:490:02:52

-Yes, I buy two-year-old heifers.

0:02:520:02:54

-They're mated...

0:02:540:02:56

-..and after they've calved, I sell

-them as cows with a calf at foot.

0:02:560:03:01

-I sell them at Welshpool market.

0:03:010:03:04

-You cross-breed

-Blues and Lims, do you?

0:03:040:03:07

-The black cattle...

0:03:070:03:09

-..are the offspring of a Blue bull

-and pedigree Lim cows.

0:03:090:03:13

-Farmers looking for show potential

-are very keen on them.

0:03:130:03:17

-You can cross them with any breed -

-some use a Charolais or a Lim.

0:03:170:03:22

-This one is just like a baby.

0:03:220:03:24

-People are looking for style

-these days.

0:03:240:03:28

-They want small cattle

-with a little style.

0:03:280:03:31

-A large cow without much style

-but plenty of milk...

0:03:310:03:35

-..can be crossed

-with a well-shaped bull...

0:03:350:03:38

-..to produce the ideal calf.

0:03:390:03:41

-Blues seem to work well.

0:03:410:03:43

-There's something

-very quiet about them.

0:03:430:03:46

-The Blue breed

-also gives them extra milk.

0:03:460:03:50

-And you've hit the nail on the head

-- they're quiet.

0:03:500:03:54

-The trouble with Lims

-is that they can be a bit wild.

0:03:540:03:57

-That's very interesting.

0:03:580:04:00

-Shall we walk around

-and see what you've got?

0:04:000:04:04

-You have excellent cattle.

0:04:040:04:06

-Different breeds -

-we have more Blues in here.

0:04:090:04:12

-These are a mixture.

0:04:120:04:14

-There are 40 heifers in here.

0:04:150:04:17

-I've taken them on for the winter -

-I'm not their owner.

0:04:170:04:21

-I'll be taking care of the calving,

-on behalf of the owner.

0:04:220:04:27

-They were all impregnated

-on the same day...

0:04:280:04:31

-..and they're due to calve

-in late March.

0:04:320:04:35

-So you have a contract

-to look after these heifers.

0:04:360:04:39

-It's a common arrangement, nowadays.

0:04:400:04:41

-It's a common arrangement, nowadays.

-

-Yes, and it suits me.

0:04:410:04:42

-One of the farm's strengths

-is its buildings.

0:04:420:04:47

-I don't have enough finance to fill

-the buildings with my own animals.

0:04:470:04:52

-The farm can accommodate

-up to 150 cattle.

0:04:520:04:55

-I've bought half that number.

0:04:560:04:58

-I'm looking after the rest

-on behalf of another man.

0:04:580:05:02

-They're calving in late March,

-when you'll also be lambing.

0:05:020:05:07

-Are you the only worker?

0:05:070:05:09

-My partner and I do all the work.

0:05:090:05:12

-I do my chores

-before and after my job.

0:05:120:05:15

-Fortunately, Dad and my brother

-and sister are on hand to help...

0:05:150:05:20

-..during the lambing season.

0:05:210:05:23

-I pay them a wage - I could never

-manage alone during lambing.

0:05:230:05:27

-You have a machine

-for carrying feedstuffs.

0:05:280:05:31

-I bought it in early winter.

0:05:310:05:33

-It saves me at least an hour a day.

0:05:340:05:36

-Silage goes into the machine...

0:05:360:05:39

-..and I just have to drive along

-down the line.

0:05:390:05:43

-I have to get to work by 9.00am

-and I finish at 5.00pm...

0:05:440:05:48

-..which means I must feed the cattle

-early in the morning...

0:05:480:05:52

-..or late in the evening.

0:05:530:05:54

-The machine is essential -

-that's why I made the investment.

0:05:550:05:59

-They'll be coming off silage

-in a month's time.

0:05:590:06:03

-I'll give them straw instead, so

-that their calves won't be too big.

0:06:030:06:08

-Once the calves are born,

-they need to suckle.

0:06:080:06:11

-There are other jobs to do,

-such as dehorning and clipping.

0:06:110:06:15

-You do everything yourself?

0:06:160:06:18

-The contract specifies calving and

-preparing the cattle for market...

0:06:180:06:23

-..as I'd do with my own cattle.

0:06:230:06:26

-I'd love to be a full-time farmer,

-and I'll get there, one day.

0:06:260:06:30

-But at the moment,

-my day job is very important...

0:06:310:06:34

-..as a means

-of maintaining the farm.

0:06:340:06:37

-These days, farmers use contractors

-for jobs such as spreading muck.

0:06:470:06:52

-The machinery costs so much.

0:06:520:06:54

-Oh, the costs!

0:06:540:06:55

-I've been here three years.

0:06:560:06:58

-I've invested most of my money

-in stock...

0:06:580:07:01

-..which means I rely on contractors

-for certain tasks.

0:07:010:07:05

-You have plenty of stock,

-which means plenty of muck.

0:07:050:07:09

-It's very good stuff.

0:07:100:07:11

-There are better means

-for treating it, these days.

0:07:110:07:15

-I'm emptying the tower,

-at the moment.

0:07:150:07:18

-Sheep will be brought in

-for grazing, after lambing...

0:07:180:07:22

-..in mid February.

0:07:220:07:24

-There'll be fresh grass for them.

0:07:250:07:26

-There'll be fresh grass for them.

-

-The ground is still cold.

0:07:260:07:28

-Yes, it's still firm.

0:07:280:07:30

-Do you get hard frosts?

0:07:300:07:32

-We've had more frost this year.

0:07:320:07:34

-But the contractors do a good job -

-they don't make a mess.

0:07:340:07:38

-You don't want to make a mess

-of the land.

0:07:380:07:41

-The smell!

0:07:440:07:46

-It cleans out your system!

0:07:460:07:48

-It's good for your stomach!

0:07:490:07:51

-Unfortunately, I won't be getting

-any cuddles tonight!

0:07:520:07:56

-Try some deodorant!

0:07:560:07:58

-Very good!

0:08:000:08:01

-Your bitch is a fine colour -

-she looks grand!

0:08:180:08:22

-She's smart, isn't she?

0:08:220:08:23

-This is Nel.

0:08:240:08:24

-This is Nel.

-

-A Welsh sheepdog?

0:08:240:08:26

-She looks sturdy.

0:08:260:08:28

-She's a godsend.

0:08:280:08:30

-She deals well with lambs and sheep

-- she saves me a lot of work.

0:08:300:08:34

-Nel can sing, too.

0:08:350:08:37

-Do you want a sing-song?

0:08:370:08:38

-HE HOWLS

0:08:390:08:40

-THE DOG HOWLS

0:08:400:08:42

-Excellent!

0:08:490:08:51

-What next?

0:08:510:08:52

-I need a quick wash,

-then we're off to Shropshire.

0:08:520:08:56

-You'd better get the dog inside

-before you have a wash!

0:08:580:09:02

-Come along, Nel.

0:09:020:09:03

-Hup, Nel - get in!

0:09:040:09:06

-How many miles a day do you travel,

-on average?

0:09:220:09:25

-Between 80 and 120 miles a day,

-when I'm working.

0:09:260:09:30

-Welshpool is my base.

0:09:300:09:32

-I travel to Newtown,

-Llanidloes, Rhayader...

0:09:320:09:36

-..and on towards Llanerfyl

-and Llanfair Caereinion...

0:09:360:09:40

-..which is where I grew up.

0:09:400:09:42

-I also visit

-a few dairy farms in Shropshire.

0:09:420:09:46

-I've always said

-that farming is my world...

0:09:470:09:50

-..and one day, I'd like to be

-a full-time farmer.

0:09:500:09:54

-But there's something nice

-about travelling around farms.

0:09:550:09:59

-I'm very grateful

-to do business with them.

0:10:000:10:03

-I'm also learning a lot.

0:10:030:10:05

-I visit dairy farms,

-beef farms and sheep farms...

0:10:050:10:09

-..and I pick up

-little details every day...

0:10:090:10:12

-..things that make me think,

-"What a good idea!"

0:10:120:10:16

-I watch farmers work and learn

-things that I can apply at home.

0:10:160:10:21

-Even when I was small, I was keen

-to become involved in agriculture.

0:10:210:10:28

-But Dad always used to tell me,

-"You have to go out to find work."

0:10:280:10:34

-At home on the farm with Dad,

-I kept two or three cows.

0:10:350:10:39

-They'd get an extra half-bucket

-of meal a day...

0:10:390:10:42

-..but I didn't have to pay for it.

0:10:430:10:45

-Dad always used to say,

-"You have to go out to work...

0:10:460:10:50

-"..your farm will come later."

0:10:500:10:52

-Now, I'm grateful to him, though at

-the time, I wanted to work at home.

0:10:530:10:58

-Where are we going?

0:10:580:10:59

-To Llanidloes -

-we'll be meeting Mike Rowlands.

0:11:000:11:03

-I call him Mike Bach - from Dolwen.

0:11:030:11:06

-He's an interesting character!

0:11:060:11:08

-If I had a shilling for every bag

-of cake he's handled, I'd be rich!

0:11:080:11:13

-How are you, Mike?

0:11:210:11:22

-How are you, Mike?

-

-Fine, thanks.

0:11:220:11:24

-It's quite cold.

0:11:240:11:25

-It's not bad.

0:11:260:11:27

-A dry morning, but cold.

0:11:270:11:29

-Do you know this man, Dai?

0:11:290:11:30

-Do you know this man, Dai?

-

-Mike!

0:11:300:11:32

-Mike Rowlands of Dolwen.

0:11:320:11:34

-Mike, the richest man

-in Montgomeryshire!

0:11:340:11:39

-Mike Rowlands of Dolwen, yes!

0:11:390:11:41

-Mike Rowlands of Dolwen, yes!

-

-How are you?

0:11:410:11:42

-Have you sold your fat cattle?

0:11:420:11:45

-Not all of them.

0:11:450:11:46

-The best cattle in the country!

0:11:470:11:49

-Mike is a good customer.

0:11:490:11:51

-I've been selling meal

-for the past nine years.

0:11:510:11:54

-Mike was one of my first customers.

0:11:550:11:58

-I'll let you get on with things.

0:11:590:12:01

-Prices are going up, Mike.

0:12:010:12:03

-Some things are going up,

-other things are coming down.

0:12:040:12:08

-Mike bought some of my cattle

-a month ago.

0:12:080:12:11

-Are they in here?

0:12:110:12:13

-Are they in here?

-

-Yes, and they're looking well.

0:12:130:12:15

-Let me open the gate.

0:12:160:12:17

-There you go.

0:12:190:12:20

-Over here.

0:12:210:12:22

-They're fine cattle.

0:12:240:12:26

-Do you finish a lot of cattle?

0:12:260:12:27

-Do you finish a lot of cattle?

-

-Yes, I do.

0:12:270:12:29

-I have about 150 at the moment.

0:12:300:12:31

-I have about 150 at the moment.

-

-That many?

0:12:310:12:32

-I can keep up to 300.

0:12:330:12:35

-They'll need constant feeding,

-though it's no use pushing them.

0:12:370:12:43

-Actually, I'm pushing

-a lot of these.

0:12:430:12:46

-I send a few for slaughter

-every fortnight.

0:12:480:12:52

-I have a butcher in Welshpool

-who buys two cows ever fortnight.

0:12:520:12:56

-It costs the same to feed

-good animals and poor animals.

0:12:560:13:00

-You need a mix, really.

0:13:000:13:02

-People don't always want the best.

0:13:030:13:05

-People don't always want the best.

-

-No, not always.

0:13:050:13:07

-You need a mix.

0:13:070:13:09

-The best animals

-don't always fetch the best prices.

0:13:100:13:14

-Nice to see you, Mike.

0:13:160:13:16

-Nice to see you, Mike.

-

-Thanks, Mike!

0:13:160:13:18

-Ta-ra!

-Guto is lucky to live

-in his home patch.

0:13:340:13:38

-It's an area

-that has a great love of singing.

0:13:380:13:42

-Family members still maintain

-the traditional form of singing...

0:13:430:13:47

-..known as 'plygain'.

0:13:480:13:49

-Guto is a grandson

-of the late John of Moeldrehaearn.

0:14:090:14:15

-I performed at eisteddfodau

-from an early age.

0:14:150:14:18

-Taid was an entertainer,

-as you know.

0:14:190:14:22

-I'm very fortunate to have

-the ability to speak in public.

0:14:220:14:26

-It comes naturally.

0:14:260:14:29

-Visiting places and singing on stage

-gives your confidence a huge boost.

0:14:290:14:35

-You started at a very young age.

0:14:350:14:37

-Taid was keen to put us on stage

-when we were young.

0:14:380:14:41

-We toured eisteddfodau.

0:14:410:14:43

-Then I became very shy, but

-I was a member of Aelwyd Penllys...

0:14:430:14:48

-..and Arwyn Ty Isaf persuaded me

-to start singing again.

0:14:480:14:52

-# Who is lying in the manger... #

0:14:530:14:57

-Arwyn Ty Isaf was a pillar

-of the local community.

0:14:570:15:01

-He was devoted to Welsh culture...

0:15:010:15:04

-..and extremely active

-within the community.

0:15:040:15:08

-He was also a good friend of Guto's.

0:15:080:15:10

-His influence lives on.

0:15:110:15:12

-# Not Gabriel, despite his skill #

0:15:120:15:18

-For some things,

-you have to make an effort.

0:15:180:15:21

-I've been very fortunate

-to be a member of Aelwyd Penllys.

0:15:220:15:26

-Arwyn Ty Isaf said we must make an

-effort to maintain our traditions.

0:15:260:15:31

-I remember, years ago,

-when I was 14 years old...

0:15:310:15:35

-..Arwyn phoned me.

0:15:350:15:36

-"How are you, man?"

0:15:370:15:38

-I thought, "Man? I'm just a boy!"

0:15:380:15:41

-He wanted a group of lads to become

-involved in plygain singing.

0:15:410:15:45

-Arwyn could see that the old plygain

-groups weren't getting any younger.

0:15:450:15:51

-So Hedd, Dylan, Ioan and I

-got together.

0:15:510:15:54

-We've been singing ever since.

0:15:550:15:57

-We don't sing so often, these days -

-Arwyn wanted a plygain every night!

0:15:570:16:02

-But we sing three or four times

-each year.

0:16:020:16:05

-# In order to raise up the guilty

0:16:060:16:09

-# In order to raise up the guilty

0:16:090:16:16

-# Mystic worlds shall be described

0:16:170:16:22

-# All secrets shall be revealed... #

0:16:220:16:26

-Everyone knows about the gentleness

-of Montgomeryshire...

0:16:270:16:31

-..but it's more than just a saying.

0:16:320:16:34

-We're keen to keep

-our traditions alive.

0:16:340:16:39

-# When the world comes to an end #

0:16:390:16:46

-Guto has a partner

-who shares his life.

0:16:520:16:55

-She's a local woman

-from a farming background.

0:16:550:16:59

-Smells nice, doesn't it?

0:17:000:17:02

-Hello, Ellie, how are you?

0:17:080:17:10

-Nice to meet you!

0:17:100:17:12

-A farmer's daughter, I understand.

0:17:120:17:13

-A farmer's daughter, I understand.

-

-I am, yes.

0:17:130:17:15

-Do you like the farming side?

0:17:150:17:16

-Do you like the farming side?

-

-I love the farming side.

0:17:160:17:18

-It's lovely, being outside

-in the fresh air.

0:17:180:17:21

-From what I understand,

-you don't work too far from here.

0:17:220:17:26

-No, I only work down the road, about

-five minutes away, in Four Crosses.

0:17:260:17:31

-Is your home a dairy farm?

0:17:310:17:33

-Is your home a dairy farm?

-

-Yes, a dairy farm.

0:17:330:17:34

-We do dairy, beef and some arable.

0:17:350:17:37

-You've been brought up on a farm -

-you know what's in front of you.

0:17:380:17:43

-Yes, I've got some kind of idea,

-anyway!

0:17:430:17:46

-Have you got time for hobbies?

0:17:460:17:49

-I enjoy running.

0:17:490:17:51

-Really?

0:17:510:17:52

-Faster than me, Dai!

0:17:520:17:54

-She's faster than me!

0:17:540:17:56

-That's fast!

0:17:560:17:57

-The sheep arrived

-three or four days ago.

0:18:020:18:05

-Lambing in mid February?

0:18:050:18:07

-Lambing in mid February?

-

-Yes, in mid February.

0:18:070:18:09

-Around about 15 February.

0:18:090:18:11

-Most of them are mules and Texels.

0:18:120:18:14

-I'm trying 80 Texel yearlings,

-this year.

0:18:140:18:18

-They seem a little tougher

-than mules.

0:18:180:18:21

-That's right.

0:18:220:18:23

-How many lambs will they have,

-on average?

0:18:230:18:26

-I scanned them between Christmas

-and the new year.

0:18:270:18:31

-The average is 1.99.

0:18:310:18:32

-That's a lot of lambs!

0:18:330:18:35

-That's a lot of lambs!

-

-Yes, a lot of lambs.

0:18:350:18:36

-It means a lot of work...

0:18:370:18:38

-..but when the time comes

-to sell lambs, cows and calves...

0:18:390:18:44

-..it gives me a lot of pleasure,

-it makes the work worthwhile.

0:18:450:18:49

-It's a great feeling when I take

-my cows and calves to Welshpool.

0:18:500:18:54

-I like to have them

-looking their best.

0:18:540:18:57

-When they sell for a good price...

0:18:570:19:00

-..it motivates me to breed

-and sell even more, next year.

0:19:000:19:05

-You're truly a country lad.

0:19:050:19:07

-This is your world.

0:19:070:19:09

-Yes - I was raised in Dolanog,

-not far from here.

0:19:090:19:12

-I learned about farming with Taid

-and Dad in Moeldrehaearn.

0:19:130:19:17

-Taid and Dad rented land...

0:19:170:19:19

-..and I felt I wouldn't have much

-of an opportunity to farm at home...

0:19:190:19:24

-..so I decided

-to start ploughing my own furrow.

0:19:240:19:29

-I've been renting land

-ever since I was...

0:19:300:19:33

-..about 17 years old.

0:19:340:19:35

-I went to college in Aberystwyth.

0:19:350:19:38

-I went to college in Aberystwyth.

-

-Really?

0:19:380:19:39

-It didn't quite suit me,

-though it suits a lot of people.

0:19:390:19:43

-You stayed for just a term?

0:19:430:19:44

-You stayed for just a term?

-

-No, I stayed for just a fortnight!

0:19:440:19:47

-I felt...

0:19:480:19:49

-I felt...

-

-It must have been a good college!

0:19:490:19:51

-You must have learnt a lot!

0:19:510:19:53

-It wasn't right for me.

0:19:530:19:55

-I didn't want to spend four years

-doing something I didn't enjoy.

0:19:550:20:00

-Guto sold his first 14 heifers

-and their calves in Welshpool.

0:20:000:20:05

-The average price was 2,600

-and the top price was 4,100.

0:20:050:20:10

-They're nice.

0:20:110:20:12

-Are they pure-bred?

0:20:130:20:14

-Yes, they're all pedigree heifers

-with papers to prove it.

0:20:140:20:19

-I made a trip to Brecon to buy them.

0:20:190:20:21

-You bought them all

-at the same time?

0:20:230:20:26

-A bunch of 12, and another six

-from a bunch in Knighton.

0:20:260:20:31

-They're a nice bunch.

0:20:310:20:33

-I scanned them...

0:20:330:20:35

-..in early December.

0:20:360:20:38

-They're all in calf.

0:20:380:20:40

-They're due to calve

-in late March and early April.

0:20:400:20:44

-You'll be selling at the best time.

0:20:440:20:46

-Will you sell them

-with their calves?

0:20:470:20:50

-Yes, in spring -

-in late May and early June.

0:20:500:20:53

-That's the best time to sell.

0:20:530:20:56

-They'll be ready to calve again

-the following spring.

0:20:560:21:00

-It's a pleasure to look at them.

0:21:000:21:03

-I look forward to seeing the calves.

0:21:030:21:06

-Yes, they're good.

0:21:070:21:08

-They're quiet, too.

0:21:090:21:11

-It's important

-to choose quiet cattle.

0:21:110:21:14

-You'll probably get one or two

-that can be a bit wild...

0:21:140:21:18

-..and after calving,

-they'll come after you...

0:21:180:21:22

-..and it's difficult

-to get them into a crush.

0:21:220:21:25

-It's hard work,

-and they can harm you.

0:21:250:21:28

-They're really quiet.

0:21:280:21:30

-They aren't spooked at all, even

-though we're not a pretty sight!

0:21:300:21:35

-Yes, they're happy!

0:21:350:21:37

-Guto is a busy young man.

0:21:380:21:39

-His aim is to create

-a successful farm.

0:21:400:21:43

-He grasps every opportunity

-to improve the business...

0:21:430:21:47

-..including the use of technology.

0:21:470:21:50

-It's wrong to say

-that farming has no future...

0:21:500:21:53

-..when we have such skilled

-young farmers.

0:21:530:21:57

-I saw cameras in your sheds -

-now, I can see why they're there.

0:21:580:22:02

-Wow - it's like being in the shed.

0:22:030:22:06

-I installed them about a month ago,

-when calving began.

0:22:060:22:10

-The system has been very useful.

0:22:100:22:13

-I bring it into my bedroom at night.

0:22:130:22:16

-I'll hear any noises

-and I can see what's happening.

0:22:160:22:20

-Instead of having to get up every

-two hours to check the cows...

0:22:200:22:24

-..I can look at this.

0:22:240:22:26

-I work away from the farm all day...

0:22:260:22:29

-..and I can use my phone

-to check on the cows.

0:22:290:22:32

-When I visit customers...

0:22:320:22:34

-..I can use my phone to check

-whether any cows are calving.

0:22:350:22:39

-If there's nothing happening,

-I can move on.

0:22:390:22:42

-If a cow is calving,

-I can see via the camera.

0:22:420:22:46

-When you're young, you have

-plenty of hours in the day.

0:22:470:22:51

-You don't get tired very easily.

0:22:510:22:53

-I plan to use the time

-before I reach 40 years of age...

0:22:540:22:58

-..to work hard.

0:22:580:23:00

-Then, hopefully, I'll have

-a platform for moving on.

0:23:010:23:05

-My aim is to grow the business

-a little more each year...

0:23:050:23:09

-..and one day, I hope I get

-the opportunity to buy my own farm.

0:23:100:23:14

-I wish you well.

0:23:140:23:16

-I hope you'll make

-your dream come true.
