Hauling corn to the Ethanol Plant

[@hawkdsl]

Nothing new in a couple weeks... Hmmm. My guess is with the super cold spell, the MF family is frozen somewhere in a field, or worse. Should we send in the Delta Squad? Some vids on how you northern people keep from dying in the winters up there would be interesting.

Your timing is impeccable. It's hard to believe how much we look forward for you to post. I know we ask a lot of you but it is so appreciated. Climbing the grain bend in the cold sure makes you look forward to the cab and heat of anything. Makes us appreciate how hard you work in the early and the cold and working all day. Stay healthy and safe for you and your family. You sure are good at what you do. Thank Jim for us we appreciate him as well. Thank Mrs. Johnson as well AKA Mrs. Becky Deltaville Va

[@LaggyWizard]

I really admire the level of organization and amount of maintenance your family invested into your farm. the farm I grew up on was nowhere near this organized.

And here you were worried that you didn't have good content for the off season... This is great stuff, Zach! Loving the day to day operations of your farm, 365 days a year! 👨‍🌾🚜🐓

Another gem Zach! Thanks for posting and melting away the wintertime blues. Sunday night is a great time for a video too...it kinda helps get me through the crud of another week of work.

Always nice when you open KZbin to a MN Millennial farmer video. Hoping for a good year for you and the family. Also hoping for more videos.

Whoever is the dork that disliked Zac, go find another channel. This is for the happy and grateful people that appreciate quality videos, like that quality corn he sold.

Actually, very very few people dislike his videos...you can not expect to have zero dislikes with 100k views.

[@davisfamilystaluciabranch738]

Absolutely agree. I'm a retired (non farmer) American that's retired in the Philippines. It is a true pleasure to see how these men work compared to where we live now. Just imagine the hard work MF does plus the extra time and effort he puts into the great videos. I'm not there anymore but these videos help to stave off the the 15 years of homesickness I feel quite often. Keep up the great videos-they DO make a difference for good.

[@devonmiles7037]

I enjoy watching these videos. I miss hauling corn so it's fun to at least to get to watch it. Thanks for the videos!

[@douglamoy5838]

I am a semi-retired mid-sized vegetable grower from upstate NY, new to your channel and so far enjoying your videos very much. You have a really impressive operation with beautiful equipment and buildings. I appreciate that you show that despite that, you still have issues to deal with! I assume from what I have seen that you are a corn and grain operation with no livestock? How many acres do you operate? I'll probably come across answers to most of my questions as I watch more of your previous videos, but as I said, I just found your channel recently. I like you attitude and your dry humor as well as the fact that you come across as very intelligent, articulate, and hard working while also being very down to earth. Keep up the good work!

[@MillennialFarmer]

Thank you for the kind words! No livestock since I was very young.

[@jaketrottman7375]

I like that you work so hard but also make time for your kids

Our local elevator added another dump station & it is fast. We don't have semis we have triaxle trucks. The first time I dumped in the new pit he told me to raise the box as fast as you can. That sure is nice. Averaging 3 to 4 minutes from weigh in to weigh out. That will really come in handy this fall when it gets real busy. Thanks for the video.

Yes I've been waiting for days thank you so much for posting you have no idea how fast I clicked this video

[@kenstewart687]

Enjoy your videos. I am a retired farmer in Kansas and cannot go on without saying this. Don’t ever go into an inactive bin after a long delay without other people with you or a life line attached. I have watched you for sometime and feel you are very intelligent but I just had to put up the ⚠️

[@richardwalsh1838]

Was thinking the exact same, that half full bin looked scary from the top looking down. Climbing down into a grain bin must be incredibly dangerous if a farmer is on his own and has no help or backup if things go wrong.

[@tucobenedicto109]

@@richardwalsh1838 Whether its a grain bin or a confined space with just a huge air pig, once you break the plane of air your are commited, your partner should attempt a no entry rescue and call for help. Way points to attach and winch a life line should be put on before entry. Perhaps a safety video?

[@raymondo162]

I agree with what you're saying - I worry about Zach's safety too. On the farm where my dad worked, if you had to work on a harvester (clearing blockages etc) you turned the engine off FIRST...…. NO exceptions!! Watching Zach work inside a harvester while listening to the engine running is properly scary...……...

My son works for a local farmer during harvest. Sometimes he gets busted from the grain cart. He tends to put over 1100 bushel on a truck. Most of the elevators around here have quit letting you dump if you bring in a gvw of over 105,000 lbs.

The ITEC on your R series Deere tractors is also standard. The only thing you have to more money for is ITEC pro which does the automated headland turns. On your Deere tractors theres a toggle switch with a 1 and a 2 on it which starts a ITEC sequence when set up in the command centre.

Why didn't they make remote control tarp rollers when I was working on the farm. I helped the son of who I worked for for 14.5 years 6 years ago and he had a remote control tarp rollers and boy that sure does save alot of time of having to jump out and crank the tarp before and after of filling the tractor plus they had the grain cart and combine full when I got back from town which was 18 miles away in one direction and I was able to keep up all day 7 - 9 except 3x they filled a 350 bushel wagon and someone else pulled that to a different town only 8 miles away. The reason I had to haul so far cuz he had it contracted.

[@semco72057]

I see those trucks down here in Arkansas and wondered how the trailers was loaded and unloaded. Most of the crops down here is cotton, and soy beans and there are plenty of that around the state. They also grow plenty of rice here and Riceland Rice Corporation is the main company buying the rice from farmers.
