We have the DEAL DONE… McConaghy Contracts - Christmas Special

This Christmas, we’re back on the North Coast with McConaghy Contracts

We sit down with Andrew, Robert and Bob ‘The GAFFER’ to dicuss their decades of loyalty to the CLAAS brand and how the Gaffer allowed a huge change in 2025 — buying the business's first-ever Krone harvester.

After running the Krone for a full season, this episode documents their first chance to look back on the switch and give their honest opinions.

With their second harvester now due for replacement coinciding with the release of the new 1000 series CLAAS harvesters to the market, they've got a BIG question to answer…

Stick with the KRONE craze — or return to their CLAAS routes?

GRASSMEN are the fast-paced, global agriculture phenomenon whose video content and merchandise are recognised worldwide. The business was started in 2009 by current director Gareth Gault, known to fans as ‘Donkey’. His love and passion for machinery allowed him to experiment with cameras and upload content to YouTube. To his surprise, a large following soon developed and the niche in the market for real-life, documentary, farming and machinery action made it possible to drive the brand forward.

We at GRASSMEN, pride ourselves on providing an exclusive look into agricultural manufacturers, meeting real, working farmers, showing and demonstrating tractors and machinery through all seasons such as silage and slurry and ultimately educating and entertaining our fans.
If you love all things agriculture from top manufacturers such as John Deere, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, JCB, Land Rover and many many more, come and join #teamgrassmen, we would love to have you!

Thanks to Old School NI for sharing some segments for this video. “Old School NI are building a video archive, capturing & restoring VHS/camcorder footage of farming, machinery, local scenes and country events from the good old days. If you've got old camcorder or VHS tapes lying about that haven't been watched in years, give them a shout to help keep the memories alive. They've a nice collection of old silage footage from farms around the country and are always keen to hear from new tape donors. All tapes will be returned and free digital copies provided for any tapes of interest”
