Zach Johnson, the “Millennial Farmer” is a 5th-generation farmer who’s spent his life growing, working, and learning on his family’s farm. His wit and dry sense of humor appeal to children and adults alike. A product of the millennial generation, his appreciation of new technology blends with his old-fashioned work ethic, and he offers a unique ability to deliver his message in a way that resonates with lifelong farmers as well as those with no knowledge of agriculture. With growing consumer awareness about where their food comes from, Zach has identified the need for an independent voice from the front lines of agriculture. Zach actively promotes agriculture by sharing his day-to-day experiences in the agriculture world while providing farmer-to-farmer education to help facilitate a collaborative conversation between farmers and the public.

Tillage man Sam cracks me up. Gotta love Jim out there with no gloves and a true millennial out there with gloves and big coat with hood on. Jim's the tough guy!!! Lol

[@KevinBenecke]

You know if you got yourself a good drone, not only could you get cool shots like this, you could use it to look at the top of grain bins to try and see where corn and soy beans are coming out of when they spring leaks. Then you wouldn't have to constantly climb the bins. You could fly the drone up their and circle it around the top of the bins. And this would be another reason to add photo cells to your lights so they can turn themselves on when it gets dark. It would seem like the Millennial thing to do to have more automatic things like lights and to have a drone.

[@tinyman8897]

That is a good idea

[@tomjingle5300]

That is a awesome idea, hopefully he sees this!

[@CurrentChoices]

BINGO!!!

[@mikewithers299]

Exactly what I was thinking. Drones can do more than just take pics or videos. I use them to inspect the roofs at work. So many purposes and awesome footage during farming.

[@newholland68]

Also good for chasing coyotes…

I'm glad to know that your dad is still keeping things in order around that farm when those picks go up to $200 a piece and he's making a executive decision to not buy is legendary that's what you call sustainability at its finest, spending willy-nilly is definitely undesirable in his eyes thank God for Dad

I so enjoy you and your dad interaction when making the farming decisions even when you do not agree Zack. You have a wonderful dad and let him know from a south central Minnesota old farmer. Hey Jim where is the Kyle Larson shirt???? Blessing in diguese dryer shutting down and hauling directly from the field.

[@txmarine82]

Enjoying this video Zach from my hospital bed in the VA Hospital. I had surgery this morning and they kept me in. Thank you much for the uplifting video. Sir

[@barbaralane9825]

Nice filming, nice editing, nice supporting cast, nice music choices…simply an excellent video.

[@jazko]

In Europe we had a dry stretch of weather and finished harvest rather quickly. Seeded wheat and barley, but we don't have moisture. We pray for rain.

Where in Europe are you? Here in center Germany we get plenty of rain right now. All the winter crops are poking their heads.

Zach, the clip starting @ 15:14 is some of your best video work of late, period. Great footage (kudos to Kibble Man Sam), great track, just really enjoyable!!

[@SMcKenzie53]

Great drone footage! Really enjoyed that. Glad harvest is going so smoothly for you guys!

[@carlbarker6073]

Loved the drone footage. Would love to see more. Unfortunately the farmers here in Australia are dealing with 100yr floods weeks out from harvesting.

[@frankcooper6911]

Helps on the Budget ! Things are looking good ! Prep Cost is Down , things are moving .

[@typhoonjenkins8330]

What a day, Zach. It's genuinely so cool to see you, Onyx, and your dad working the family farm. I know how hard the jobs are, but you're so fortunate to be able to work with your family and that wonderful crew, I'm jealous. I always love your drone footage and seeing Anna (the farm boss) riding with you to check on the fields. Ray reminds me a lot of the only cat we ever had. He was raised with 2 Newfoundland and a Great Pyr, and those 3 dogs were terrified of that little beast. Hope the harvest continues to go well for you all. Thanks so much for sharing these amazing inside farming videos.

[@JeffBrazier836]

Should have a drone to check the cover on Jim's DEF tank. 😁

[@merrymanrc]

Your dad and Jim is a great help around the farm

[@jboom87]

Oh man. That drone montage was like being in a relationship that you didn't know was missing something, and then when it suddenly appears you want more of it. 👏👏

[@victoriamckiernan6446]

I’m glad you guys are catching a bit of a break with harvest this year!

[@alexpb9]

You make shifting gears on that truck look so easy!! Flashbacks from my days hauling corn to Aurora SD, wheat and beans to Mankato and fertilizer from St Paul... Grind it till you find it was the way we started off, but doing combine hauls down to Texas could get me close to how good you shift that truck.. Oversize loads were the worst when you missed your gear. Love this time of year.. The videos keep coming in and all about harvest. Simply the best🎶

[@JasonALyons]

watching for a few years now and really awesome to watch different harvests from year to year. After last year, you all deserve an easy time with it, especially with the crazy spring and the late planting.

[@bluegrallis]

Here in NW Illinois, we haven't found any 15% corn yet, except for the first 60 acre patch had some up on the sandy ridge along the timber. The batch dryer at the main farm is done for the year, and the wet bin is full with air on, ready to be ground to hog feed. We have less than 150 acres to go, and the crop will be in for the year.

[@marshalldouglas6048]

Drone footage is amazing, person that ran it did a great job. Always enjoy the content, keep buying green machines! hope the harvest goes safe! Best wishes from Moline Illinois home of John Deere.

[@tracyannbanks123_]

It’s really nice to see a planter work with zero issues, it’s one of a kind, Good luck with your harvest

[@drtaru]

4:13 Hey Zach, don't quit your day job 🤣

[@stephensabatos898]

Kudos to Mrs millennial she put together a great video . After a crappy spring with all the damage and such it's great to see you guys are having a great fall harvest 👍

[@mikewithers299]

Zach this video was awesome!! You're a millennial. You need a drone too. The Mavic Air 3 can track you as you work. Ya know like a 2nd wife, and you can fly up to inspect your bin roofs without a safety harness. Props to Mrs. Millennial for the awesome editing. So glad you are catching a break on harvest.

[@garysuffern2142]

Zach it's great that you and your family are having such a nice harvest well deserved! great channel 🚜🇺🇲

The drone shots were a super slick addition to this video, glad y’all are having a smooth harvest!

[@gigs2006]

Well Zach I’d say you have been blessed this harvest so far.. the storms took out some storage capacity at the farm but the corn has been dry enough out of the field to go to the plant.

[@scottm344]

Really cool to watch this crew work together.

[@dougwatts2732]

My favorite part is the dogs riding in the razor . That is too funny

I love it when Anna and Digg "talk" to us...lol...

[@stevenicoson6670]

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Wow. What a harvest you are having. Weather is good and really excellent moisture corn. Not bad at all. Probably a good decision to run the ripper knives a bit longer due to the big rocks and the cost of the knives. Either you or your dad said around two hundred a piece. Wow. Highway prices it seems. That rock Jim turned up was a big one. Seems funny your dryer not running all the time. Low moisture corn is easy on the pocket book also in propane fuel. Unusual harvest. Becky you did a beautiful job on the drone shots and the music and showing harvest and farming in Minnesota. Good job Becky!!!!!!! No big breakdowns. Keep your fingers crossed. Ya!!!!!!’ About it for now I guess. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything Zach and Becky. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

Thanks another good video I hate heights also. Its been a wierd harvest here in the PNW also silage corn is almost all off and most of it was done with no rain keep safe.

Awesome harvest this year compared to the blow-down you guys had last year.

[@jayjaygee3306]

Yep! No running a 22 inch header across the rows this year! Wahoo! Glad you guys are having an easier go of it. Love the drone footage too!

[@gjurczyc]

Suggestion how about putting on a safety Harness with a clip when you go ladder climbing on the bins. The things you do often like everyday over time can come back and bite you, soon as you forget they are dangerous. You have a whole lot at stake DAD! Just a suggestion from a man who is not as fortunate to have a special family like yours. Be careful please. Love the channel.

I used to do some roofing at least a little, but I was told that if you're scared of heights, in your case, grain bins,don't look down

[@AllanSitte]

I was driving down I94/I90 this morning at about 0530... it was dark... and raining... and my driver side tire rear blew out its sidewall unexpectedly. I got out of my vehicle after matriculating it over to the side of the freeway as far as it seemed safe. Looked at the torn up sidewall, used some choice adjectives.... and then asked myself... "WWZD?" What Would Zack Do? So I broke out the jack and tire irons from the back of the cab... pulled the full size spare tire out from under the vehicle... put the jack under the vehicle... jacked it up high enough to get the wheel off cracked the torque on the lugs and spun them off... wrestled the torn up wheel off the hub... wrestled the spare wheel onto the hub... spun the lugs back on and torqued them down to as tight as my kicked boot would let me... lowered the jack and threw everything in the back of the vehicle... All in the dark.... in the rain... on the side of the freeway... with tractor trailer rigs going by at 70 mph. WWZD... inspiration and determination... always somethin. 😆

Ripper points - Now I come from a sawmill family so not an expert on ripper points, BUT thought to myself, Wow... $200 a piece. What if you put a hard surface weld bead on the action end of the points, you might get more time outta them before you have to change them. We run hard surface weld beads on our log grapples on the front end loaders to cut down on the wear.

For the shear bolts on the ripper shanks, when they wedge up at the top instead of loosening that big bolt which is quite a pain, it's easier to carry a chain in the tractor. Loop it around the shank right above the point, throw it under the nearest tire, then get in the tractor and back up. It'll pull it right down and once it hits the bottom it'll slide the chain under the wheel.
