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.

Jim is getting very comfortable on camera and Isla is just a doll.
Good to see more of Jim and hopefully more to come!
Until just recently,I thought you just had Onyx and Isla...and the teen...what the other daughters name?
He is a good man
Yes too comfortable
Judd Moore Rhiannan I think that’s how you spell it.
I think every farm has a Jim. Good folks to have around.
I'd like to give a heartfelt shout to all you farmers and truckers for your strength, work and dedication through this pandemic. God bless each and every one of you.
Thanks for all you do on the farm. Not a farmer, grew up on a small farm in Maryland when I was a kid. Love your way of talking while your working sometimes good laughter. Always taking care of the equipment even cleaning it. I own a Detail Shop now in Maryland kinda wish sometimes I was on a farm. Have a good year and be safe.
Homeschooling my 13 year old has taught me a couple things:
1. Somehow my best subject is english.
2. I am not cut out to be a teacher.
3. I suck at math.
I'm 70. What is 13 year old math? I'm sure it's different than when I was 13
Miriam Bertram, 7x+3=31
31 minus 3 is 28
so 7 times x is 28
28 divided by 7 is 4
x equals 4
learned how to do that from my kid last week.
he can't find his shoes but he can find x!
@@lawrencetoddverrnier302 PhD microbiology here. Algebra is the most useful math I ever learned
@@lawrencetoddverrnier302 maybe parents are getting smarter from homeschooling.
I too support the idea of having a Jim Q&A interview style video.
Don't feel bad, here in southeast Wisconsin we had the day time blizzard with the sunshining through as well
Thank you for providing me with interesting stuff to watch, especially while (mainly) stuck in the house/garden. Stay safe all of you.
Sir I just want to say thank you for you great shots that you do... like from the hitch of the cart, beautifully done! I know how busy a farmers' days are and for you to go through this much effort to make it a great shot for a viewers entertainment... Awesome! Thank you once again for going the extra mile in your very busy day. Love how you make us part of your days on the farm. May you have a very blessed 2020!!
I do love hearing all the robins chirping in the background, a sure sign of spring!!!
I'm a freshman I highschool on central Kansas and my work is all been very easy, our teachers gave us work that is required to be done and then the rest will fall In Line if we have enough time at the end of the school, I finished my work for the week on Wednesday so I've been doing stuff getting ready for summer, doing odd jobs that take a little bit of time to do and really can't just quit half way through, like tilling some yards for my customers for my lawn care job.
Absolutely love your videos mr millenial. Weve just finished our spring drilling here in the uk and after such a wet winter we are now wanting some rain real desperately. Keep the videos coming and you and your family stay safe.
Zach , it’s so nice to see your dad in your videos . I really enjoy seeing him , he is so quiet but so smart !
He said well someone has to lay the hammer down. I was waiting for the next shot to be of him laying the hammer down on the counter.
"Everything is automatic" .... This Millennial-Thing is getting out of control 😂
Middle of April in Colorado and we had 10” of snow this morning. Had 9.5” for Easter Sunday. Your part of the world looks pretty nice for April.
As someone who has never worked on a farm I want to say thank you for everything you show because it has opened my eyes to the expenses that most people never think about where farming is concerned.
I never would have thought of a John Deere tractor as a quarantine chamber lol. Thank you for your hard work. Im sure some of your crops make it to my dinner table.
Zack - Cheater bar on the fuel filter? Dad - "What?" I about died laughing!!!
OTR trucker here, really neat to get to see what's going on over on the other end of the warehouses I pick up from. Definitely subscribed and definitely going to binge watch all of your videos while I'm shut down for a few days!
I hope that everyone is doing well and staying safe and doing the school work that is provide.
we homeschool 7 kids but we were doing it before covid19 lol--- my kids love it though, my 11 year old daughter drives our 9100 4wd with the vertical til in our latest video, i couldn't imagine farming without having young un's around.
Hello , i m a french viewer and you’re video helps me to undersand english and particulary the agricultural vocabylary. Thanks and continue 🙃
Yes me toi! Salut le français ! 😉

I love your channel. Am amazed at the equippment. Coming from a farm/ranch background I offer you the following: The largest single fenced field sown with wheat measured 14,160ha 35,000acres and was sown in 1951 south-west of Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. Growing up they would close the schools come harvest. The equippemnt back then was a far cry from today. Thanx for the great channel. Lon Elliott
Being a city boy, I have no idea what you're talking about most of the time, but I'm learning and at 71 YO that's good. Really enjoy your videos and family.
One more year of TH-cam, you won’t need to own any equipment, you’ll get enough demos to get the job done 😂
JohnnyRingo no all demos
“Never doubted it!”
Yeah....., I saw that ever growing look of concern in your eyes when that battery started to run a little low on juice and the multiple scenarios of what in the blue blazin hell could be going wrong and the “betting odds” that went along with everyone of those separate scenarios...., Hehehehe
Getting to see/hear Jim more and more. Be safe out there, men. This has really gotten going here in MA.
It's a blessing to see you and your family unit work so well together I love how you invited Christ into your life. Thank you refreshing
Gotta LOVE Farming in Minnesota!!
How well I remember my husband trying to help our oldest son with his math homework after I'd thrown my hands up in the air! Parenting never changes, even when you're LockDownHomeschooling!
You have grown from when I started watching you I see you getting all this new Equipment and it just makes me happy 😃
It makes me so happy 😀
Don't feel bad we up in upstate NY are still getting snow and the cold weather, who ever gets your grain Cart will be getting a good deal, you guys take really good care of your implements , love watching your videos, they make me laugh witch we all need at this time , Thanks keep them coming.
When you put new fuel filters on those tractors try leaving the filters loose and turn the key on until fuel comes out of the filter then tighten it up. I’m a jd tech and sometimes they seem like they end up full of air if you don’t do that 🤷♂️ kinda messy but it seems to work better
Hunter Medrud totally agree with you, also I’ve found that after so long computer will time out and shut off pump even if it’s not done priming.
Hunter Medrud
That’s great advice. Would that tip work with any diesel fuel filter? I sometimes have trouble with air locks in my 2.8 Sofim 8140 long stroke motor I run in my tourist Land train. Fiat Power Train just kind of shrug their shoulders when I ask them about it. Never had the problem on the 3 litre Toyota.
Key cycle 3 times for 60 seconds after changing fuel filters, then it will start and stay running
Sometimes they just wont bleed out. You can pinch the return to tank line a lil bit for 20-30 seconds and repeat a few times.
Really enjoy your videos pls keep them coming. And your little daughter is adorable and it’s cute how she likes to help you.
Yet another nice vlog Zack . Looking forward to seeing these Tractors and all the different implements out in the paddocks opps i mean fields doing their thing . Have just finished watching all your previous vlogs from the start has taken me 2 weeks but i did it . The size of all this machinery is mind blowing .
Put a little magnet “i” on the seed cart in between the j and m and surprise Jim with it.
Zach, you should do a Q&A with JIm... call it Ask Jim...
Or get Jim on Off the Husk
More so a would you rather! Checkout superstaion k106 Facebook page lol😂
we need Jim on off the husk
Great video, Zach! I hope that this planting season treats you well.
We're near Peoria, IL, and are roughly 60% done with our soybeans. This year is by far the earliest we have ever planted--kinda scary!
Homeschooling is great! Nothing has changed XD
In Texas we are in the mid 20's most mornings and had 40 mph north winds this morning. We used to plant mid April but now wait till later. The highest yields with 118 day is 10th to 15th of May and dryland is 110 day around June 12th.
When I store equipment I use 1 Amp maintenance charger.
God I love Texas!!!!
I havent scraped ice off my vehicle in 25 years.
I'll take ice over 2° shy of hell😂
Never once, in Texas, have I had to scrape 6" of heat off my car before I could go to work.
@@PollardGeorge
Remote start is a wonderful thing ain't it?
@@carpentrylover145
Ahhh you get used to it just like the cold.
Only you dont have to shovel it.
@@carpentrylover145
Mini has recorded temps as high as 114.
Thats incredibly rare even in Texas.
That a nice looking seed tender you got there Zach
Zach your a GOOD PERSON that is awesome helping your neighbor just saw you on the kellly clarkson show
Zach I gotta say: I’m torn. I loved the footage of you talking about all the equipment you guys are running from all the way back when your pops was running the farm. I’m dead serious it gave me pleasure beyond as it reminded me of my proud father running his old iron to keep the business running. At the same time I wish you all that’s coming your way as you work hard and deserve it all. Anyways that’s enough of that keep the videos coming and you’re the representative us farmers could wish for. Strawberry farmer from the Netherlands checking out, stay safe brother.
As a rule of thumb when changing fuel filters on common rail: Cycle the pump 20/25 times before starting.
Was so hoping the post logo scene would've been you setting a hammer on the work bench before covering it with a shop towel and turning off the lights yelling "Go to sleep!"
i live in las vegas nevada..all my life...the concept of farming is not in my wheelhouse...but i LOVE the way you do your thing...and the amount of needed equipment.... WOW
That's why farmers are equipment rich and money poor and poor commodity prices are an other reason
I LIKE the way you roll. You could have your own tv show. Your a natural . Go for it
Thanks Mrs. Meillinalfarmer
Lol. Got your Dakota Micro Ad before the video played!
We have battery issues all the time on our farm and our mechanic said it’s likely due to sometimes we only run it for a few minutes before shutting off and that doesn’t allow the batteries to charge. We bought a few trickle chargers and plug them in and it helps immensely
Great to see Jim a lil more!! Things are ramping up!! I’m excited!
I would assume the home schooling is going well for the people who already home school their kids.
Been homeschooled my whole life 👍
Ding... Winnar
I have been homeschooled all my life as well, not that big of an issue. Love it though!!!
I'm homeschooled, nothing has changed for us lol
Our last child is 13 and we've homeschooled our 3 older kids from the start. No snow days, no bus rides, no quarantine issues. It's a wonderful way to educate!
Looking at all of those screens in the cab of that tractor makes me jealous as 40+ years ago we were lucky to have a tractor with a cab. Our first cab had an 8track player waaahoooooooooooooooo lol
Still farming with my 40 year old Case tractor. It always starts. Even after changing fuel filters.
Newly subscriber.. I watch " 10th Generation dairyman" and he mentioned your Channel... now I'll never sleep, you got some great equipment.
hello,i am a 15 years old future farmer from France and i really enjoy to watch your videos . your material is bigger than ours but it stays green and thats a very good thing .I really like being able to see the different ways of farming between minesota and gers(department of france)
ps:you deserve an oscar for your acting😂
sorry if my english is not perfect
I feel bad about the whole situation with the twine. Definitely avoidable if the twine was picked up and unfortunate that melting it messed up the bearings. Really something that shouldnt happen
Jim's face when the tractor started then stopped again says it all
Hi Zach. Here Nacho, from Madrid (Spain). I am a fan of all agri related issues and a follower/suscriber of all your vídeos. I,ve seen in this concrete one you are doing some maintenance in your equipments which I liked very much. I am not a farmer, just work in SKF company, brand which most probable you may know from your spare parts dealers. I really hope you reach the 500.000 suscribers by 5th. May, and please continue this great job you and your team are doing over there. Take care! and Best regards.
I’m sure everyone has told you how to fix your 8360 battery problem but I figured I would share that we run an 8345rt and it has a similar issue with a large power draw when the key is off. We have found we can rectify the issue by turning the battery shut off off
Why do i get the feeling that the tractor coming will be a 8rx
You could see 8rx with a planter at the dealership in a previous video
He said in a livestream that's what's coming to the farm
@@timwestendorf8303 ok
Your right
In today's episode Zach learns that the internet never does what you ask it to do when he gets thousands of emails with goofy questions.
Isla had been your helper for a while now . She is a good kid having her around you more probably brightens your day. She might just have to learn how to use the tractor. Give her a few more years she will be helping more than you could ever imagine . Nice video stay safe and farm on my friends !
Glad to see Jim not camera shy anymore. Look forward to more of Jim and your Dad.
Pre millenial dad talking on phone while working one handed, I see where you got it
“It makes a better video” yeh he knows.
There are those who marvel at your farming knowledge and work ethic, yea. I guess. What impresses me is your ability to remember the numbers of all the equipment you use. I had four boys and found myself running through every one of their names before I hit on the one I was trying to talk to. Go figure. John from Louisville.
Good thinking; Jim riding on the 3 pt allows you to drive in the HOV lane of your County Road and avoid all the traffic; way to go!!!
Since the fuel filter didn’t require a pre-fill you should’ve cycled the pump 3-4 times before firing. My guess is it was only pumping the original 3-4 seconds needed to start with an already full filter, not knowing it’s empty
The Smokers Necessity give a little bit of throttle. Help the system to pass the air so you don’t stall the engine.
Ooh, Onyx is gonna have to go see Principal MillenialFarmer
When you started the tractor hit a little bit the throttle it helps to push the air so you don’t stall the engine. Even when you think your filters full you can have air left in the system.
That’s quite the seed tender. Love the vids man and keep up from the good work!!
"Please don't waste my time by asking goofy questions."
Has Zach *been* on the internet?
🤣🤣 fair enough
He has, that is why he had to give that PSA.
I usually just weld my filters to the tractor, that way they don’t come loose
Use locktight aswell? Just for extra security
Self tapers and a bracket works for me
America
Who wouldn’t use all of the above, sell it before it needs anything afterwards lol
Zach ran into that several years ago on the sprayer
Ha Ha! That setting up the camera on the cart hitch was funny. I always think about that whenever someone is doing their own filming. It's like, "oh, he had to set the camera there and drive off and then come back and get that". So I appreciate the 4th wall break there.
Our 8520 sat all winter and fired right up this spring, no problem. Now, having it out and about for a few weeks, it won't start two mornings in a row.
The forecast sound about like Michigan’s right now😂
Lol one thing about Michigan the next day is always a surprise maybe? 5 inches in the morning? Or maybe not. Lol ya got to love it :-)
I believe the meme about your batteries always dying has now become a full blown curse that actively kills your batteries lol.
Just wanted to let you know that your ad that you did for the Ag cams played for me.... while I was watching YOUR video. 😂
You have snow and I have 70 degrees Fahrenheit and two ours ago I finished corn planting.
Nothing more American than a seed tender with “Patriotic Farmer Addition”!!!!!
I just wondered if that's too much weight while full for the Dually, 3 axles is quite a bit for a bumper hitch
Except it goes against National Flag code. Not supposed to display the US flag on anything.
@@cmusic52 They pull surprisingly well, we typically haul 200 units of beans regularly down the highway. Its not pleasant but it can be done behind a 3/4 ton truck as well. Legally it is to much though, your looking at around 17-20,000+ pounds depending on seed weight.
@@Galactis1 people misunderstand.
The Flag Code refers to flags. Those are NOT flags, they are decals.
T-shirts are NOT flags.
Bandannas are NOT flags.
Absolutely no rule against flag prints. None. Zip. Nicht. Nada. Zilch.
You can wear clothing with printed American flags or flag decorations.
You cannot wear an actual flag as a piece of clothing.
There is a Flag Code covering this issue.
The American Legion has given its support to clothing that represents the American Flag and patriotism.
Can you leave the live-streams up for a couple hours after you stream them so that so we can still watch them if we’re a little late?
yah I tried to watch it later but it was already taken down
I didn’t even know that he did one, I worked late that day, and zip, nothing 🥺
They do that for a specific reason. They want this channel to be 100% family friendly and the live streams typically aren't and they say that during the streams over and over. They don't want to have that content available to kids all the time, so they remove the livestreams.
ILA
Sorry if I missed spelled her name
Well be the one running this farm for the next generation!!!
Love to see her helping out
And still wanting to ride in things after her accident
I love her
She is a great kid to take over in another few years
Zack
Your doing a fantastic job
Props dude
I’m impressed
You make me proud to be a Minnesotan
Give ila a hug for me
She’s a great kid
Along with your other kids
Stay safe
Best wishes
God bless your klan

We have the same issues with the batteries in our 8360RT. I installed JD’s battery disconnect this year and haven’t had any problems. Local JD tech says there is a constant draw for all the controllers on late model tractors that keep them ready for when you want to turn the key. I see all newer JD tractors are coming with disconnects installed at the factory
Oh no! Zach was coughing! That could mean only one thing. He caught the Casevirus.
Steven Gadzinski maybe Deere chronic wasting disease
I know it's cool to be deaf and all, but 3M makes hearing protection call Peltor that turns on and off so you can leave them in and hear normal conversations too. Limits incoming sound to 82 decibles. Really cool. I have a pair after a virus killed one of my ears so now I'm deaf in one ear. Loosing that ear made me realize how important your hearing is. Take care.
Do you have ground disconnects on your tractors? We’ve been putting those on our 8Rs and 8RT. It definitely helps with batteries. If you do and the planter has any extra hookups for say an air compressor for the row cleaners you have to make sure it’s grounded to the ground post and not the battery.
I am presuming the polypropylene twine wrapped first around the rollers-the things the bearing go into. The twine then slipped/slid onto the bearing area. If that path the twine took add a small guards on the ends of the rollers.
Man, your daughter is adorable! Good thing she takes after mom and not you haha
But she is clearly a daddy's girl and probably has dad twisted around her little finger.
Same thing happened to my dad and john deere said unplug the fuse for the radio cause the radio kills the battery
Then you'd have to have them come out and set the time and presets every time.... 🤣
Pretty much anything electronic will do it. Just because it's not on doesn't mean the comp in the devices isn't eating power. Just like sleeping and off stuff in the home.
If you use the kill switch... Your radio still work? Greens are weird. :D
It’s still odd that it sat all winter and fired up then sat two days and wouldn’t.
I've been in your area the 2 previous years in April for work and both years had 15-20 inches of snow almost on the same day. Crazy
don't feel bad man my canal four wheeler that's started every spring with the eltriuc start finality will hot start this spring the battery finally crapped the bed after 7 years so ur not alone
Why is the "cart" style battery chargers too short for anyone to drag without being hunched over? I always end up awkwardly carrying it anyways!
I put bigger tires on mine.
No kidding!!!!!
Maybe it's designed by a dad with sons that need to be kept busy???
Mount it on a two wheel dolly. Run a piece of 3/4" PVC between the side rails for a place to hook your battery clamps.
I'd have some choice words for that guy that left the baling twine in the field.
Yes, I'd let him know what the damages were and tell him that next time the replacement parts and labor would be on him!!!
I'm sure he'd be happy to rent his ground to some one more accommodating if you don't want to deal with it.
@@ericluitjens4256 exactly!! Lol
I actually had/have this exact problem... but the benefits from the manure and the rent is pretty decent overrides fighting a little twine or net wrap. if you just go cut or burn it off right away it's a non issue most of the time. I have cattle and am also guilty but 90% of my hay /straw is chopped so dont have many problems anymore.
He's a good landlord and a good friend. We have farmed a lot of his ground for 25 years now. We'll just deal with it and raise the basket up next time!!
Finally got in the field today I got almost 300 acres gassed with anhydrous only have 1700 more to go and a 1000 acres of beans but we're supposed to get 4-5 inches of snow tomorrow
When that camera was on the hitch and you started pulling away, I thought the grain bin was rolling down a hill and a calamity was soon to be seen......then I remembered that are no hills in Minnesota. :-) Did you see all the new stuff that Cornstar Farms has installed this year? That Mixmate Fusion looks pretty cool.
Do you actually buy stuff like seed tenders or do you just ask them every season to try out another model?
Usually a demo
They send him demos because hes a big youtube star and well thats heaps of exposure for them its basically free advertising for them while zac gets to use new stuff so win win
We're all waiting for the JD deal like Welker
He should do a livestream of just farm work
Think it's harder to edit the "workin words" when live... not to mention violence and nudity. 🤣
hammer slammer true
Well don’t feel alone serviced our 8360R today had the same problem when changed fuel filters had to let it prime 4 times before she started
got a little air in the fuel system....fun times...if you turn key let sit for 30 seconds do that a couple times before starting it after filter change it should help...
