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.

I just love that your dad plays along with the actor that plays the millennial farmer.
That was the highlight of this video!
you dont know that he to is an actor since the last season of this show
Dad's are the greatest TH-cam partners! Always good content with Dad!
Were all playing along with life, isn't it something?
The actor that plays Dad plays along with the actor that plays the Millennial Farmer, playing with the actor that plays the dog or the dogcat or catdog, or something..
That young man of yours has certainly come a long way. He jumps at any chance to give a hand. It's great seeing the 3 generations work and respect each other so well.
Awesome seeing multiple generations work together! Much respect!
Lil man was being an operator instead of a driver, something everybody running equipment needs to be.
Everytime I see Onyx doing farm boy things, it makes me smile. Lol
Great job running the grain cart young man
Had to laugh when Jim said close enough lets go , like having two dad's. I know there are good videos coming of harvest.

What a great feeling you must have with your grain cart driver
I love seeing the kids getting involved
Not so common these days what with all the corporate farms and liability worries.
Your father is an Angel. I really like your father, Zach.

Zack, it's really good to see your dad in your videos more than usual. Much like Welkers, Fast Ag, Browns, etc., the presence and involvement of the older generation (also mine) adds the element of wisdom and experience. Something a country with such a small percentage of its population even involved with agriculture needs desperately. Just think what Onyx is soaking up each day he works with you, your dad and Jim.
I have been raised on a farm back in the 60and 70 love your program
It's nice to see Nathan warm up to the camera over the years. Guys his age are a wealth of wisdom on a farm.
the irony of having an infernal combustion engine to pump Def fluid was not lost on me. good show! 👍
Irony is when you're forced to use death to decrease emissions and the electronic companies can't even get talk to text and autocorrect to put down the dialogue that you are speaking as if it was written until you hit the little blue arrow. Then you have to go edit it all! Had a bit frustrating. Tad bit frustrating!
I appreciate that you never put the camera down that’s got to be really frustrating some times but it’s really noticeable when creators do it 🍻
So glad to see your son has the desire to farm and likes to be with his dad and grandpa. Do to a drought and a farm accident I didn’t have the chance to have my boys carry on with our farm. I have been watching you for a few years and I don’t think you will have the same luck I had. When you get the red equipment I know for sure that will hold true. Keep giving us the great content, and more of the racing.
I love how you said thunder so quickly and boring
@Ben Meadows. Lol. Thanks ✍🏼🆙
It was good to see Onyx driving the pickup with "thunder" hooked on , through the field. Great time for him to learn how it feels to get behind that steering wheel.
He even bet me I drove at 14
@@davidnelson1134 Yeah, me too. We had an old "field car" that got a work out when my brothers and I were kids
Farm kid's learn how to drive at a young age, that knowledge and respect for machines translates directly to the street when they start to drive on the roads..
@@lucascady4992 I learned out on the field. best driver in the family. lol
@@TheJayDawgZ Me too brother, I was driving a dozer before most kid's were driving a lawnmower! Love the farm life, wouldn't change a thing!
Onyx needed to find a second pet beetle and name him Sarge (yes, old enough to remember the comic "Beetle Bailey" lol).
The build up suspense on whether the grain cart tracking was going to connect was palpable and the plot twist of the drain tile cage being what went thru the header was a big shocker. I was sure it was a big rock. I love the characters Dad and Jim, I sure hope Jim doesn't get fired again this season.
Thanks for your content.
I smiled when Zach mentioned a thresher. I'm 73 and one of my oldest memories is a threshing machine driven by a big belt from a traction engine. They were situated in our farm yard, which seems like an inefficient workflow looking back on it. I would have been about five years old, so 68 years ago.
I'm the same age and recall the threshing machine as well. Drove a JD 50 between the shocks while Dad threw the bundles into the grain rack wagon.
I used to go to Denton, NC where they have a Threshers reunion every year around the 4th of July. I remember seeing the old threshing machine in operation. They also have a large group of old tractors from steam tractors up to gas and diesel
Me too ,in the UK, a steam engine was the power unit, 53 the year I can really remember watching for several afternoons.
I'm sorry Zack but what a waste of time and money that tracking rubbish was, what the heck is difficult about driving a combine to evenly fill a trailer?
You need something interesting to do after 12hrs or more keeping the combine going through the rows !!
....Labor Day weekend, Mt. Pleasant, Iowa -- Thresher's Days (my home is Quad Cities Iowa/Illinois in Colona, IL)
Hey Zach the other day I watched your first video and it’s crazy how much the channel has changed over the years
Do really like that you training that young man to do all things farming and he will be the next generation to continue farming.Definitely a great father!!! Good job 💪🇺🇲👌🏻
Nice to see Jim back, hope he's all sorted and recovered after the storm
Jimbo IS THE MAN!!
He sure is 👍👍
Nice to witness you all working as a team of 3 generations of farmer skilled for solutions all the time! God bless you all with a profitable harvest and between the rows!
Now that is a neat system when unloading. 👍👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
Absolutely amazing how the tractors basically talk to each other to stay aligned etc. Technology at its finest, well except for an automated window cleaner other than a windshield wiper. lol
You guys not believing onyx when he said the tractor had a problem is classic😂
Thought so too! The young man has a feel for glitches, like maybe when his go-cart isn't running top notch. Seems his Pops looked into it, not sure. Give the kid a few more harvests and he will be a real contributor to the operation.
So awesome to see Onyx back at it with you. He's really a great kid! Not only can he run grain cart, he actually realizes problems and can let you know! Next year maybe some seat time with you in the combine. And maybe a future family farm partner AFTER college.
Just what he needs is four years of brain washing
@@johnwudarcki9315 maybe some farm related
" brainwashing"
You shouldn't make someone go to college.
Yea not sure college will do much but mush the brain.
Did you check out the comments from the anti college fans. I ment an ag related college experience. Jeez!
As a fellow pilot the “down and clear” with altimeter setting was pretty funny
Sweet Beetle Bailey reference. That was a good one!
As soon as he said he needs a name for the beetle, I immediately thought Baily. Every Sunday I would read it in the paper. Him and Sergeant Snorkel. Now that's old school
Still read Beatle Beatle Bailey every Sunday
@@DeweyCheatumNHoweLLC I would but I don't get the Sunday paper anymore!
@@valuedhumanoid6574 might be available online
Zach you are blessed with great son. It is so good to see a young man that has a interest in your operation! Onyx is a smart young man. Must get that from is mom lol. Great video as usual. Love watching family working together!
I've been away from the farm for over 60 years and I still get nostalgic at harvest time. That was my favorite time of the year as I got to drive the grain truck in the field when I was about 12 years old.
@oldsloane...✍🏼⤴️
Onyx uses his mirrors better than half the men watching this. He gives me faith in future generations. I love watching the kids grow and get more rowdy on their toys!
my kids in this i think we all work together but they are just on a diffrent level
Zach, Great Video, I hope you continue to have a safe and bountiful harvest. Just a thought for a good video. I think it would be interesting to hear an interview with You, Your Dad and Jim on how Jim and your Dad got together over the years to have Jim as a hired hand.
Absolutely love the way you have your son running the big equipment at such a young age it’s awesome you should be proud bud
It is great watching three generations of the family working side by side.
LOVE your dad's shirt!!!
Great to see Oynx out helping you during harvest. That was neat that Oynx recognized the problem with the tractor and grain cart very attentive son good job Oynx
Love the videos and family working together with close friends! Great example of American farms working to feed the world!!
Drop the rock trap.... I typically do that somewhere in between my morning coffee and leaving the house.
Your channels are better than any reality TV series that Discovery and the others have ever produced. You have an awesome family and it's great watching how you all work together. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
I love magic. The syncronization between you and Onyx is fascinating.
We found approaching the combine from behind with the cart and syncing works much better than the cart ahead of the combine and trying to sync
Well lesson learned today Zach, Keep it between the 2 rows!
Glad to see no major problems so far and the yields aren't too bad either.
Love the super unenthusiastic "thunder" at 3:20 😂😂 honestly I was sad when you didn't say it the first time. A funny sick sounding thunder is still better than no thunder, so thank you Zack or Zach or whatever way it's spelled..... I mean... Millennial Farmer!
you mean the actor also right
@@chief3378 duh! Zach/Zack Johnson (idk which way he spells it) is the actor who plays Millennial Farmer.... That's why I said both. You clearly didn't get the joke
Never stop with the old movie references cause they were awesome 😁😁😁
Haven't listened to the Linder Farm Network in years, but I still know the opening to it word for word!
Never stop with the great movie references! One of the best parts!
Your channel dropped into my feed at some point and I've been hooked ever since. I find the content you share both educational and entertaining. Thanks so much for sharing what your family does with us all 👊🏼🇺🇸
Great video Zach love seeing 3 generations working together! The grain cart sync is pretty neat, crazy the technology advancement.
Glad to see Jim back, so far so good. Looks like the beans aren't too bad. Really fun seeing the young man of yours running the grain cart again. Let's get him in the combine doing corn this year, once he gets Zack trained on the grain cart it should go good.
I love how you are all working together as a team and you cordinating.
Farming channels are pretty much all I watch, no phony balony fake shit.
California car duster is the hot tip on the windows, keep it in the cab, takes 2 seconds to wipe them off and they will be almost as good as actually washing
@Aj Stine ✍🏼✍🏼☝🏾
Zach, the Deere cart system sounds like the system used by Ag Leader called Cart Ace. It should save the unload auger and keep from puking a few hundred bushels of grain on the ground.
You're fortunate Onyx picks up farming quick. In a couple of years, you're going to be running the grain cart, while he runs the combine.
Deere has had Machine Sync since 2012. It's hardly a new feature, you just need the machines with auto-guidance and the Machine Sync software.
Watching you sync machinery was fascinating, but also somewhat sad. 55 years ago I had Onyx job driving the grain cart. I am now 😊officially obsolete (and retired). Stay healthy and safe! God Bless!
Great video. I hope your harvest is going well and you feel better soon.
Great video.. Onyx is REALLY maturing into a farmer. Great to see him working so well. Makes ME feel good to see him doing so well. GREAT job Zack..
Hi Zach, very interesting to see the grain cart being controlled from the combine, I'm sure the more you use the system the confidence & trust will come, it sure makes it easier from the grain cart operators perspective as the combine driver has the better view of how the cart is filling, won't be too much longer before a grain cart operator becomes surplus to requirement. 🙂🇬🇧
Well, that's some memories right in the feels. Used to love reading the Sunday funnies after spending the night at Grandma's and Papa's.
Been around farms and combines for many, many years. To give you an idea on how many, I sold one or two of those gray moistener testers new when I was a teenager. Yet, I am always amazed by the advancements in technology. The Machine Sync is something I didn't know about. Hope your throat gets better and continued success with your harvest and fall work.
More great harvesting video. You guys all seem to work so well together. Look forward to the next one
I only know you through TH-cam, but I'm proud of that boy!!
You might want to start listening to Onxy he has a good understanding of the machinery like his father lol
You need a baby bommer to wash windows lol
Hello from Siesta Key Florida
@Bill SRQ.. ✍🏼🆙
Onyx is your right hand man that has got it worked out . He really does know what was wrong.
I hope you are feeling better soon..
Great video Zach
An operator that can catch a problem will save you from the big repair Bill's! Hats off to onix!! Well done!
Zach I’m shocked you had someone came out in person usually you’re supposed to call the 800 number for precision help😂😂😂😂 Midwest precision team is living in 1970 University of Minnesota rexs😂😂
@Dave Tangren.. ✍🏼☝🏾
That is so cool! To be able to have your son do those things with you. I know my boy would love it! I’m completely happy for you! Thank you for the videos
Thanks👌🇺🇸I ‘m 70 retired , makes my day seeing you guys working with all this new stuff👀👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🍺
You can’t stop with the old movie references. Those are the best
@Harrison Fowler. ✍🏼☝🏾
Great show 👏
I guess washing the windows is one thing technology can't do yet! I remember my first attempt at unloading on the go and I crushed the auger pipe on our old Massey Super 27. I think I was about 13 at the time and my Dad didn't even yell at me but I was so embarrassed. That would have been about 1955 or 56.
Road trip to THUNDER CREEK. They have an INCREDIBLE FACTORY IN IOWA. Watched Dirty Perfect when he picked his trailer up. Farmers keeping America Great
We are getting 85-90 bushel in Iowa picking beans. Great year. 250 corn.
Awesome to see you getting things done and Onix doing great on your farm
I text you guys just a few minutes ago. We live in Escanaba . We are getting a Big Winter storm starting on Wed night. We are getting 5-12 inches of Very wet SNOW . Upper Michigan. You seem to be a Great Dad to your Kids . You have a lot of patches . To touch your Kids . In this world we NEED Dad's like you
A couple of things with your diesel pump. First, if you’re not using a high flow pump and larger nozzle and secondly change your fuel filter regularly.
I love harvesting season, more videos to watch!
Which of us farm kids does not remember the first time that his/her dad/mom let him/her drive a tractor ALL BY HIMSELF/HERSELF? For me, I was 5 years old on a Ford 900. Dad instructed me before he turned me loose: "When you get by the barn, just shut the key off." It was a trip of about maybe 60 yards long, with one gentle curve. The Ford 900 was pulling a wooden haystack, after Dad had pitched off a jag of hay for our herd of 40 Hereford Momma cows. I think that Dad walked just off to the side and slightly behind the tractor the whole way. I was ON TOP OF THE WORLD!
Awesome magic tech demo! Speed matching and fwd/back nudge button is cool. Thanks for sharing.
It's great to see Jim, and three generations of the family working together, great video
I was never happier than when we ditched our grain head for a row-crop head 30 inches on center ridge tilling.
I’m actually proud that you knew Beetle Bailey, being a millennial!
Hoping you're feeling better! Here's wishing you all the best this season!
Great references! 🤣🤣😀. I always looked at those extra rows as BONUS ROWS 😁
Onyx in the pickup brings a lot of great childhood memories on the farm great video thank you
I remember reading BB in the Sunday paper when I was a kid, Good Times for sure.
It's amazing on how much technology has been given in the Agricultural world like the tractor being in sink with the combine, I think Oynx will fit right in since the younger generation are so computer literate and everything they do nowadays is on the computer.
Oynx will be a great asset to your operation in the coming years.
*sync
Really like your videos; Educational, even though I'm not a farmer. Thanks for taking me along for the ride.
Your dad is such a funny guy 😂
Love seeing the new generation being in the field more and more dude! Cherish these moments, before you know it onyx will be 21
gotta love technology
Well doggies, a Beatle Baily reference from a Millinial.
That's a shock to this old geezer.
I'm impressed Sir.
It's awesome you've got Onyx out there learning how to be a farmer in the modern world.
Got a computer issue, hand it to kid thesedays.
He'll get it figured out.
Just had to say "THUNDER" out loud for you. You're welcome. 🙂
Came to comments to make sure someone besides me said it!
I love to see combines working...
everything will be good! God bless you man!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
