00:30Hetty is pouring milk onto her cereal for breakfast.

00:36She knows that milk comes from cows. Do you know where milk comes from?

00:43Hi, my name's Tractor Ted and I live in Tractor Land.

00:46I have a bottle of milk in my trailer and I'm going to show you with the help of my tractor friends where it comes from.

00:55First we have to get the tractor ready. Which tractor is Matthew going to use today?

01:00I'm going to show you with the tractor.

01:04I'm going to show you the tractor.

01:06I'm going to show you how to do this.

01:09When I'm out of directors, I use a tree in the shower.

01:14I have to show you the tractor.

01:17I have to get the tractor.

01:19I can't do this anymore.

01:20I'm going to show you what to do now.

01:22Before he starts work, he fills up with diesel.

01:52We'd better give the tractor a good wash.

02:20The boys love watching.

02:25All done.

02:26Clean and shiny.

02:29Let's go.

02:48We need to make some silage for the cows to eat during winter.

02:53Which machine do you think we need to cut the grass?

02:56Is it the plough?

03:05Or is it the mower?

03:11Or do you think it could be the power harrow?

03:17That's right.

03:19It's a mower that cuts the grass.

03:20Oh, here it comes.

03:22I'd better get out of the way.

03:25Inside the mower, the grass is cut by sharp blades.

03:29And left in neat rows.

03:51Inside the mower, the grass is cut by sharp blades and left in neat rows.

03:58Inside the mower, the grass is cut by sharp blades and the grass is cut by sharp blades.

04:13Inside the mower, the grass is cut by sharp blades and the grass is cut by sharp blades.

04:40When the grass has been cut, the swath turner comes and fluffs it all up ready for the baler.

04:47Inside the mower, the grass is cut by sharp blades.

05:54Back at the farm, the farmer is getting the baler ready.

06:24He puts in some netting.

06:40This will tie up the bales.

06:44That big roll will tie up 40 bales.

06:47Look, here comes a blue tractor.

07:00Here we go.

07:01Here we go.

07:02Here we go.

07:03Here we go.

07:26He hitches on the baler and plugs in the pipes.

07:56He drives off down the track.

08:26He has to go very slowly as it is quite bumpy.

08:33The turner rotates like two windmills.

08:40He has finished a row ready for the baler to collect up.

08:47The turner rotates like two windmills.

08:58He has finished a row ready for the baler to collect up.

09:05Can you see the grass disappearing?

09:12Where does it go?

09:14Well, inside the baler spinning rollers make the grass into tight bales.

09:21Here's a bale all racked up.

09:28Do you remember we saw the farmer putting the netting in earlier?

09:35Let's watch some more bales.

11:41Let's watch some more bales.

11:46Matthew is getting the bale wrapper ready.

12:16Watch out, here come the bales!

12:46A long arm reaches over to pick up a bale.

12:51It looks like an elephant trunk!

13:01The arms put it very gently on the bale wrapper.

13:09The bale wrapper covers the bales with plastic so the rain can't get in.

13:25It's just like wrapping a present.

13:34It seems like a beautiful day.

13:41It looks fine.

13:45It looks like a little bit of a ball.

13:49It's kind of like a little bit of a ball.

13:54I'm not sure you're in a ball.

13:58It's a big ball.

14:01Let's watch another.

14:31Let's watch another.

15:01What a big pile of bales.

15:31Shall we count some?

15:37One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

15:56Well done.

15:58One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ten.

16:04One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ten.

16:10One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ten.

16:16One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ten.

16:28In the winter, the cows are fed with silage to help them produce milk.

16:44In the winter, the cows are fed with silage to help them produce milk.

16:48In the winter, the cows are fed with silage to help them produce milk.

17:00In the winter, the cows are fed with silage to help them produce milk.

17:06Hello, Daisy.

17:16Hello, Buttercup.

17:19Come on into the parlour, girls.

17:22The men clean the cows' udders as they get rather muddy in the field.

17:38And then, you know, we're not fed up to the cows' udders as they go to the cattle.

17:52They are fed, they are fed, they are fed.

17:56Men, women, they are fed and fed from the cows' udders as they take into the cattle.

18:02Stuart is telling Lauren how the machine works.

18:25It's pumping out the milk, which is taken along the pipes into the milk tank.

18:32Lauren is looking worried that it might be hurting the cow, but it's just like a calf drinking

18:48from its mother, Lauren.

18:53I wonder how many litres of milk he drinks in a day.

18:57Just as the calf lets go when he's finished feeding, so does the machine.

19:02Stuart milks the cows twice a day, throughout the year, and even on Christmas Day.

19:15Here comes the milk tanker.

19:30Bye-bye Daisy.

19:31Bye-bye Buttercup.

19:32Bye-bye Buttercup.

19:33Bye-bye Buttercup.

19:34That's the one in your belly, won't you?

19:35That's the one in your belly, won't you?

19:36That's the one in your belly, won't you?

19:37Go on.

19:38Go on.

19:39Go on.

19:40Go on.

19:41Go on.

19:42Go on.

19:43Go on.

19:44Go on.

19:45Go on.

19:46Go on.

19:47Go on.

19:48Go on.

19:49Go on.

19:57Bye-bye Daisy.

19:59Bye-bye Buttercup.

20:02That's the one in your belly once.

20:04Go on. Go on.

20:32A tank this size can hold 20,000 litres.

20:39How will he get it into the tanker?

20:51He connects up a long yellow pipe that pumps the milk into the tanker.

20:56Let's watch him tighten the nut with a big spanner.

21:02It doesn't take long to empty it.

21:17And when it's all gone, he packs the yellow pipes away.

21:23Hey, where's all my milk gone?

21:41Another tanker has arrived at the dairy.

21:46This man is checking that the milk is clean.

22:01At the dairy, the milk is pasteurised, which means that all the nasty bugs are killed before we drink it.

22:08Then it's taken along the pipes and packed into milk cartons or milk bottles.

22:23What do you have at home?

22:24What do you have at home?

22:26What do you have at home?

22:28what do you have at home?

22:29What do you have at home?

22:30What do you have at home?

22:31I'm so glad you're here.

22:32But when you are sitting at home I can make a pick up.

22:33Why don't we do?

22:34You want to move out of the buscar?

22:35What do I have at home?

22:36I can use a respirator?

22:37I would doig strony store.

22:38It's great.

22:39門's thaniable in the board, I would do it.

22:40You're happening at home.

22:41Here is a lorry collecting his town's supply of milk.

23:11Now let's remind ourselves how we got our milk from the cows.

23:34In the summer time, when the grass has grown, we need to collect and store it for the coming

23:39winter.

23:44We get one of our tractor friends who cuts the grass with a mower.

23:51A swath turner comes along and fluffs it up ready for the baler.

23:59Which rolls the grass up into tight bales.

24:06The bales are wrapped up in plastic.

24:08To stop the rain getting in, this is called silage.

24:13This is then fed to the cows in winter as silage, which helps them produce their milk.

24:23Every day the cows come into the parlour to be milked.

24:31This milk is taken to the dairy by the tanker.

24:40At the dairy, the milk is pasteurised to kill any bugs and packed into milk cartons or milk

24:45bottles.

24:50I've had such fun telling you our story from tractor land.

24:54I hope you've had fun too.

24:57See you again soon.

24:59Bye.

25:00Bye.
