MILLENNIAL = CULT? We continue to be perplexed by the ever-increasing, obsessive, almost cult-like following of "Millennial Farmer". The relentless desire of anonymous people worldwide for this one particular producer in Minnesota to receive $100,000.00+ in free equipment usage each year? His organized followers actually lobby the manufacturers such as Deere for him to receive free legitimate usage in-season of the latest machines (like 100 hoursI also like him and the great videos .... but there are tons just like him and his channel.

Wouldn’t mind seeing how your drill hooks up to your 9560rt, mainly the hydraulics as I know I’m limited with hydraulic capacity also and to know the best setup would help. I wish there was a way to lift just you midrows up when you get to a wet spot and not plug. I could do that with my old Deere midrows. Also nice to see a KZbinr from Canada and a broad acre farm.
