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.

Hi zach. I'm in high school and I think I made my decision of what to follow. I've been watching your videos since middle of 2017. Thx to you, you inspired me to pursue something I had little interest in. You taught me a lot about this stuff when I had very little experience before😀. Keep it up Zach love the videos.
That's awesome!! Good luck! Remember that agriculture is very broad and there are a ton of options as far as how to be involved and make a great career out of it!!
XxJelly MasterxX Look at agronomist, they are a great asset to farmers. Many very good Ag. schools all over the U.S.

Millennial Farmer hi Zach i’m Ethan i’m 22 years old i have a rare genetic disorder i really want to be a farmer but with the syndrome i have idk if i will be able to
Go to town and buy two of the most expensive snowmobiles they make. It wont snow for the next five years after that. Problem solved.
True
A brand new plow blade with all the bells and whistles will do the same thing.
The truth hurts 😂💀💀
Funny how that works like that. Got sick of the shovel, build a monster snow blower with 2 Chevy 572 big blocks with super chargers and track drive... Haven't seen a flake sense.
Murphy's Law.
I got to work on the 780. Keep buying green, we'll keep making better ones 👌
Hey, Zach ,it's Thomas from Zim. I am not a farmer but I have been following your channel now since the 2018 Soy bean harvest. I really enjoy the way you think on your feet and manage the day to operation of your farm. Very motivating and you've actually helped me to focus on certain day to operation
That look when you started hand pumping the DEF... Priceless lmao
The thumbs down must just be disappointed with his technique. He didn't throw a twist in the motion. 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂^^^^
😂🤣😂🤣😅
Was he using the girlfriend or the stranger? 😂
What look?! 🤣
Just want to show respect and appreciation to you and all our other farmers for providing food for us to eat. Thank you.
you are right. People on red combines don't waste time fixing broken machines and they can afford to feed the pheasants and watch youtube videos of people on green combines struggling. I finished harvest 2 weeks ago. Go deer....heheh
I was raised on a farm in the midwest in the 1950s. I have been watching these videos to find out how farming is done now. To say I'm amazed is an understatement. The sophistication of the mega-machines now is mind-blowing, especially the computer technology so you can know what is going on in the bowels of those machines. Of course, it is necessary to have all of the technology now in order to feed the billions more people there are now on the earth. This includes developing higher-yield grains and produce. Amazing.
"How can you run faster than me while fighting." That had me in stitches!
I have the same question as you
Primitive Agriculture loop
Hi I'm a farmer from south Africa i like to see how other farmers farm. I enjoy your content thanks alot
Perfect hand motion I can tell you have lots of experience pumping!!
🤣🤣
Please implement the check ins with Randy "song" every time you have a check in with Randy. Thank you. Hopefully that fuel trailer will become a permanent unit on the farm, that thing is too handy!
Hey you guys are trending on youtube! That's awesome, too see so many people into farming videos on youtube, farmers are the unsung heros. Great Job.
EXACTLY here in upstate NY it’s the same thing!!! we get 130-140 inches of snow every winter so it’s time to harvest 30% corn because that’s just the year that we’re having we don’t have any choice
31% moisture is crazy! Here in Ohio we were taking off 120 day corn at 18.5% until we got 2 inches yesterday. Interesting to know how much different things are just a few states away.
Can’t wait for the FS19 Map. Currently doing a “Aussie Style” series on Welker Farms.
Keep the vids coming, love the content. All the way from Australia
Corn looked good. Now that look while pumping the DEF = priceless. Take care spin
Looks like a pretty “handy” way to move DEF;)
You know, I also see this is the way of the belgium.
DEF sucks
Changing from beans to corn and back looks pretty easy. I' be looking forward to hear more about the combine advisor and how that is supposed to work, and how it actually performs for you.
That did look less strenuous than the old 9660 I used to run, it was an hour job if not longer with one person.
That S780 is a sexy machine. A big step up from a 707 Uni-System with a 6 row head and a husking bed.
Product placement, infomercials, you know what I mean. Smart move, great production for DIY...best luck. The real benefit will be for those "urban" people to learn some realities "rural" people live and experience every day!
Good luck and I hope the day goes very well for you. It's always great to see a farmer win against time and the elements.
Another most interesting, informative Millinnial Farmer video!!!! Always enjoyable in every respect!! All of us former farmers learn much and appreciate how much you are doing for the entire nation with all the new technology and your hard work!!!!
In Denmark rain is coming in amounts we have not seen since 1837. Potatoes are swimming and corn is some places impossible to get. We need those belt machines.
Ahah... that's what the kick starter looks like. That's how good this vehicle is from the ad. Pine tree protecter to make us busy I hope.
"Cob Deflector" was my nickname in college.
🤣🤣🤣
Wow, my two favorite TH-camrs!!!
I laughed way too hard at this 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember the round the clock farming days its grueling but when it's coming out of the field at 16 and 17 brother a I just kept going keep up the good video's I really enjoy watching your operation!
Amazing that you can Harvest these huge fields with only 1 Combine (or now 2) we in Germany got much smaller Fields and got 3 Combines
he only farms 2500 acreas you dont need more then 1 or 2 machines for that
Remember these machines are both Class 7 machines which can move ALOT of grain thru them very quickly as one hopper he had over 19k lbs in the combine as that is alot of weight!!
Hi. I have been following your videos they are really educative and amazing especially in technology side. My self i am a small scale farmer in Tanzania growing dry beans hope one day i will visit your farm and learn more.
I can see more gym time this winter. Gotta be able to catch the dogs right.
Good luck playing with the dogs.
Love that fuel trailer, we are digging peanuts down here in south GA. Got some rain moving in next few days.
Get R Done! Thanks for sharing!

It's a new variety, nematode resistant.
Tried to deer hunt here in NC this morning. Sweated my ass off and mosquitos are me alive. Hit 85 degrees here today. And very humid. Disgusting for November. I gotta get out of the south...
J Malone what part of South Georgia?
J Malone what part we run a big cattle operation in west central,do a little bit of corn and beans to

When your calibrating with the active yield activated. You can't do it with full tank. Or at least I couldn't last year. But maybe there have been a update. The scales can't weight the corn that is hanging on the sides of the tanks. But if you stay in the calibrating menu. It will tell you when to unload and weight that. It will be way more precise. Just a little help from Denmark.
I do have to say. You and I Zach have the same sense of humor. Kinda dry and only those of us alike will get it. Lol
Thank you for taking us on this years harvest again.
I bought a Lock N Lube the other day. Used it yesterday and loved it!
I clicked on the video because the thumbnail looked EXTREMELY satisfying. But I stayed because you seem like such a cool and entertaining person. Keep up the good work!😃
All too often we would get a heavy snow before the ground would freeze. We would have to wait for that snow to melt to get at the corn and we picked corn on top of ICE! If we ever broke through, we would bury the combine because it was goopy mud underneath.
Please don’t look us in the eyes while pumping your def! 😂😂😂
Does it move? - Yes
Should it move? - No = Duct Tape
Does it move? - No
Should it move? - Yes = WD40
Failing that: A bigger hammer!
Like an old Army Saying: If it moves, salute it. If it don't, paint it.

@@Bowiiihowdy I can go along with that!
We harvest corn here in michigan at 30 percent moisture as well. We have to get it out of the field before it gets downed. We had a wind storm yesterday it downed over 60 acres now we're harvesting it today very slowly . Our fields are very muddy we have gotten some rain lately.
Keep up the awesome videos! This Arkansas Ag teacher loves them. I teach in a small farming community and several of my kids watch them also. We even talk about them in class after you post new ones!
That's awesome!!
We are going to need that Ag teachers name.....thanks in advance!
Millennial Farmer how bout a shout out in your next video to Levi Jones and the Harrisburg FFA Chapter in Harrisburg, AR. Also please go like our Facebook page! The kids would love it if they knew you fallowed us!
Glad to see you are getting in the Fields.
Perfect thing for Sunday afternoon!
The only other time a dog needs a tune up. Chasing tires.
We hung a tire in a tree for our Heeler. She loved it!
If we just could get liberals to chase tires...🤗
I'm sure demoing that new combine is beyond exciting. It would be interesting to see the total savings: fuel, time, harvesting efficiency. Of course, the increased quiet doesn't matter...but, people but based on emotions.
When I was younger I worked on a harvest crew cutting wheat. Looking back I had a lot of fun and seen a lot of rural America. I watch your videos and it brings back good memories of working on the farm. Do the elevators give out sodas while you are at the scales? That is why I liked driving the trucks into town. Lol
Buy a small fuel pump and put two lines on it. Grab a 12v battery and put some wires with spring clips on the end for the battery terminals
Randy, trouble never travels alone,.. good luck!🍀
Question about the FS Map: Will we be able to get Jim stuck on this map?
We're burning up in California. That rain sure seems very alien, we haven't seen any in seven months.
Gook luck with harvest and stay safe out there.
That's crazy. I wish I could send you a bunch.
Sweet mother of corn! Skeet,skeet!
hey just gotta say thanks for your videos . been following about a year now and enjoy learning new things every video . I can not wait for your map to come out on farm sim 19 . really looking forward to farming your land in game . keep these videos coming great work
Very nice day for a harvest
Looks like the combine is working good
I learn a lot about ag in your videos, thank you
One of the funniest guys on TH-cam. Love watching a fellow Minnesotan. Keep it up.
My family is dairy farmers and we shelled corn the past week at 25-26.6% moisture
All the corn, cotton and beans out down here in my area. Love your channel. binge watching tonight to check out more
The shlop montser has struck again, great vid zack love that tracked green machine!! Can’t wait for the map too!!
Nice combine John Deere S780 frist cornharvest make . 😉🚜💨💨🌽
The comment about the pheasants having to go to a farm with a red combine was hilarious. Almost fell out of my chair!!!
Soooo it was 81 here at Myrtle Beach today, a bit humid.decided to not harvest my grass today....football called and I answered. I may go golf early tomorrow then go to work.
Holy buckets. That eye contact while “pumping” #awkward
🤣🤣
Hey Zack. You do have the best videos out. Thank you for the entertainment and information. Here at Northwest Illinois we're in the same situation. Wet...
@ Jon Daws i am east of Belvidere, IL and it certainly no better on my end...good luck & be safe hope you have a great harvest!!
In Scotland as far as I know DEF is known as ad blue and when I realised ad blue wasn't blue was the biggest disappointment I've ever had with new Diesel engines haha.
Same here in Germany, though sometimes its sold in blue canister's 😂
James Adams Massey Ferguson was the first brand to make a ad blue ready tractor in 2008 I was told by my old boss so they should of made it red😂
@@Masseyman-nv2kl call it redblue?
Impressive technology and capabilities on these modern machines!
The look on your face while pumping was priceless.
The look on your face when you were priming the DEF pump was priceless!! Lol Mmmmoisture. Great vid my friend. Cheers
Looked like he was thinking about the master pipe layer, "Randy"!!
You are going to be in race to get harvest done before the snow really flies. Good luck. Been a wet year.
I’ve been waiting for this vid since yesterday’s vid
Ah good to see my periodic soap opera update.
Good pump action there 😉😉
The randy master pipe layer looked to be having a bad day!!
You crack me up with some of your comments and actions... its freaking great
What the heck is that ???? One big green machine woohoo that is awesome 👍👍👍👍
btw zach, if you really wanted to you could take off the left pipe on your bean head blower and cap it off. i put a blow on a bean head and only had that right hose connect to the pipe
Tell Randy that ceramic tile and silicone work better. Grain terminal I used to work at was held together by that stuff.
SWEEEETTTT! That new 780 Combine is all you Zack!!!
And if you let it sit to spring your Deer loses are going to be expediently higher too. Especially in your area the White Tails are going to eat anything they can during winter, and Corn left standing would be very high on their list.
Fun stuff. Enjoy your videos.
If you get time in the spring you should do a full tour of Randy’s farm
Watched a video on the new john deer x9 combine, i just overwhemed by the advancement of farm equipment since i left farm in 1969...we had a self propelled international combine, one of the few farmers that had one...my dad sat out in the open, and i felt sorry for him combining that itchy oats.
was
I would think dealing with snow/ice melt in spring would make the mud worse than the Fall, so I would choose Fall too.
First day of corn harvest? That's aMAIZEing!
I see what you did there. Hardeeharhar.
why am I pumped as hell that you're starting on corn
For those new to DEF, and that looks like all farmers, DEF is a mixture of 1/3 urea and 2/3 deionized water. .
It was first widely used in the US in 2010, when new emissions systems for Heavy Duty trucks entered production.
I had been used in Europe prior to that to met Euro 4 emission standards.
A good explanation can be found at: www.cumminsfiltration.com/sites/default/files/MB10033.pdf
Am I the only one always anticipating the batteries to hedge dead when he gets into something in the cold storage shed lol
Waiting for the map indeed, good news, thanks!
Here In Finland, that kind of grain moisture is normal in this time of year.
Great video, The look while pumping DEF cracked me up. OK, A Thunder Creek fuel trailer, a J&M Grain cart, and a new Deere S780 and you asked Nick Welker if he owned any of his equipment? LOL Just Teasing..... I keep waiting for another Leg Arms sighting
Nice going to be on the look out for that map soon!
Glad to see the 8260r get some work
02:54 thanks for informing us bout the map.
Don't waste to big a piece of metal on that tube repair there Randy!!! Who's on cleanup for that , really sucks !!31% mooooooisture really let's you haul and handle a lot of water with your corn but I'd agree it's time to get it if the ground let's you ! Sucks having to make those ruts but with those tracks on everything it'll minimize it as much as possible ! Be interesting to see how that combine handles this wet corn !! Thanks for the video !
I love the S780
I live in central Iowa where your Thunder Creek trailer was made. As a quadriplegic, I only farm virtually. However, my dad's family owns a grain elevator and farms. Corn at 31% moisture sounds crazy, but it's the wet year we've had in the midwest.
I always enjoy the jokes on here lol. I love that it's more fun then angry or grumpy about stuff
Awesome video thanks for sharing and good luck with harvest 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
5:37
Oh ouch, let me just go cry into my inexpensive replacement parts that I don't need a contractor to install😭
Love the video man, keep it up😁
I love those cameras on the grain cart so cool
In order to wait for a freeze up - you may need sub-freezing weather for a week or two to get it firm enough to harvest without issues with ruts.
I cant wait for harvest after watching this!! Bad part is we have a ton of down corn here in central iowa as you saw on your recent visit!!
