A new episode of Off The Husk is live for your listening pleasure. Go have a listen! Also, we did NOT actually fire Allen!!! 🤣
simplisafe.com/millennialfarmer
Know you didn't fire Allen. Love Jim. My personal favorite video with Jim and the gang is the first time Jim got stuck. He's a great character. Love Jim
Another great video... This was the first time I didn't skip through the SimpliSafe ad. =) Kudos to Becky.
Keep 'em coming!
At least you didn’t fire Jim, again.
Watching Bec attack the speaker with a hammer was classic. Don’t you love a gal that can handle her tools.🤣
@@justinbegley2310 at least she didn't use a shotgun to remove it. Believe it or not I know a person who did that once.
I would like to thank Allen for providing the channel with content.
And thumbnail lol
Thanks Allen.
Takes some of the heat of Jim this year.
Agreed. Thanks Allen
He's a good sport 🤣🤣
Rewatching and very happy to stumble across Becky's install video again. Most underrated supporting character
Jason is a hard working guy. Honeybee should be proud to have him as an employee for sure. Thanks for bringing us along with you on the farm as always.
@UC3PRcnjwCSEe7kOAsdd6cUg Do you mean Tony from Fast Ag? I haven't seen honeybee at Larson farm.
I was thinking the same thing. That guy is there for the header and he just jumps into everything!
He’s what you’d call a salesman that believes in his product. Going to do his utmost best to ensure the product is performing to its best.
He worked his tail off the whole time, that's for sure!
Yah, seriously! Represents his company super well, and goes way beyond the sales aspect
I like the way Mrs millennial farmer did that add and then athe end threw in a heads up for all the farmers and them that don't know to much about it thank you
Becky removing the speaker from the house was the best part
More Becky
with a hammer. lolz
...with bleeping...
lol i was hoping she would walk away then come back with a saw
You could exchange the ladder for a chrome pole
I’m just a gamer but I just want to thank you for bringing us along on your days. It’s a real treat to see equipment being used and how long it really takes to fill and hook up and drive out to where ever. It helps immensely with my gameplay. Cheers!
That Honey Bee guy is one of the hardest working sales reps I’ve ever seen!
There should be more reps in the equipment world of agriculture and construction like that honey bee rep this country would be a lot better off
@@erniezsigo3926 Agreed! Hell, more people with that much drive, work ethic and attention to detail on every job out there. This country is sorely missing that kind of character trait… badly!
I’m going to go ahead and say he was on the service side before going into sales. Best sales guys were always techs first.
@@ChaseLandMgmt If you don't know how the product you try to sell, works, you can't be confident to sell it.
We have an Alliance (John Deere dealership) sales rep that works for us. He is one of our best helpers
I never farmed but my dad and I cut down trees, cut firewood and had that same unspoken team work that Zach and his dad have. Part of what I love about this channel.
Zach, to me, your dad seems like the kindest, most soft spoken farmer I’ve ever seen. I’m sure he’s put up with a lot of your crazy antics over the years but it tells me that you were raised well and that he can be proud that he’ll be handing the farm off into capable hands when he ultimately retires.
Biden better be out of office, or he won't be able to pay the inheritance tax. That's how the left are going to destroy family farms
@@sandyelliott3350 you can't really blame the old man for everything. Put some positive energy out there, or shut up.
Farmers don't retire. It's in their blood. But I agree about your statement.
Where do you think I learned the crazy antics from?! It's hereditary!
@@MillennialFarmer this is the best comment ever
That install by Mrs. Farmer was priceless!!! So awesome!!! Thank you for the smiles!
Hi Zach. I'm a truck driver from Holland and I thought I noticed the same blue insert in your def tank as we have in Europe. Those things contain a magnet that have failed me personally twice in the last ten years (so not that often) but when they do the def, or adblue as we call it, won't keep flowing. So if the problem occurs with the same vehicle, that could be your problem. Our dealer seems to have them in stock.
Oh and from one trucker to another: Allen you should have caught that one before it happened, especially on that side...
My family came from holland in 53. What part are you from?
6:05 I remember loading a brand new aluminum flatbed with just about 50k of communication tower steel for shipment to AL. (The guy brought a daycab so we could load a little heavier)
He made it all the way to AL and as he was turning onto the lane that led to the tower site, he hadn't widened his turn enough. His brand new aluminum flatbed, on its maiden voyage, twisted and was ultimately written off as a total loss.
Zack: "Long combine drives 12, maybe 14 miles by road"
Mike Mitchell: "Those are rookie numbers you gotta pump those up"
Hes got feilds that long lol
I came here to say that lol
Zach and Mike need to get together!
Mike : "so we are leasing this field clear accross the province, dont worry its profitable haha"
Meanwhile Mitchell is posting 35 minute clips of his 300 mile solo combine move overnight haha!
Mike puts more road miles on his combine than a Uber driver.
We have the same problems with def in the uk, we call it ad-blue, usually the nozzle on the def hose has a magnet in it that needs to be aligned a sensor in the tank, your tank seems to be an open hole with the ring with the sensor missing, in my truck the def nozzle fits exactly in a small ring, this is to prevent miss fueling
I just about lost it when she pulled out the hammer and started beating on the speaker, then dropping the screws, classic security system installation.
Bless all the farmers that work hard to provide for us all
Becky's smile when she went to get the hammer to beat the speaker off the wall cracked me up😂😂
My wife is sitting here pissing her pants laughing! Mrs. Millennial farmer you made our day!
Mrs. MF’er is the BEST!
Love seeing your dad. So laid back and he just takes it all in stride.
he is well seasoned and has seen it all. that's exactly the way to go through life.
The Simply safe ad was the best anyone on any channel has done yet!!!!
How old is your father. I really appreciate the calmness that he brings to the farm. I really am impressed with everything y’all do. I think the work you do is incredible keep it up
I run a Case loader that as DEF and I had the same problem! Open the cap then inside where you fill up, you can twist the inside one way and take it out. The filter where you fill up at is the problem!!
Same with my new holland combine
This
You are spot on
Loved the ad! Especially Becky telling everyone to be careful while she's tip toe on a step stool instead of a ladder! Great content the whole video through.
We need to see more Becky commercials. Loved that install segment. She’s qualified to do this as a second career.
Easier in the old days, you 1 gear, me 1 gear, and up she goes 🤣🤣
When all else fails grab a hammer is what really sold me.
Def nozzle does it frequently when filling combines, the filter JD puts on the def tank is pretty small and the nozzle fills that filter up more than the filter and flow. Can check the def filter on the combine with I think 4 or 5 bolts on the def tank see if there’s anything in it.
Thanks for the safety speech, seriously.
My family has farmed in the panhandle of Nebraska since the 1880’s. A small summerfallow wheat farm, with some other crops at times. I recently moved to North Central Kansas with my wife after being part of the operation the last 15 years. Income was tight and it made sense to leave the farm and it’s work for my uncle to tend to. This past summer he was diagnosed with an unidentifiable carcinoma and went from planning spring work, to be with The Lord at the age of 49 in just 3 short months. Some of my fondest memories were made working with him, turning dirt every spring, and rushing to get the wheat in every July. He loved your videos, and dreamed of starting a farming channel himself. I watch your videos now and can’t help but think about how many important life lessons the farm taught me. Thank you for what you do. I’ll keep watching, carrying on the legacy of one of your many proud American farmer viewers.
That Honey Bee header seems like a good unit.
Mrs. Millennial Farmer killed it with the sponsor ad. She sounded like a pro! Man I love farming vlogs. City kid here, work in finance, my dream is to retire and buy a farm.
Farmwife Becky is very handy in installing those security devices in your commercials! Great harvesting so far Mr. Miliennial!
30 miles of harvesting with no problems ...nice Good comercial for simple safe Becky.. hands on ...
Jason seems like a really nice and hard working guy, nice header too!
They finally changed sicles over to bolt on instead of rivets. When I was a kid my dad had a machine shop in Kansas and farmers would bring the whole bar in to have the rivets knocked out and new sicles riveted on.
I chased a leak on a tire once for a month before we realized the wheel itself has rusted through enough to weep air molecules through from the inside. Outside the wheel looked fine but once we dismounted it you could see.
That’s why I always swap steel wheels to aluminum. It’s less maintenance and as a bonus you can load up a little extra weight.
Ooooh! I love the look of your grain cart and tractor with tracks. That was always my favorite job during harvest. When tractors with tracks started showing up here I used to joke that I would drive one for free just to get to see what it was like. Never got the chance before I got injured as a passenger in a small 2 door car hit by a dairy truck. So I'm doubly grateful for UA-cam videos that help me relive the feelings of harvest. I really miss it.
Stay safe during Harvest fellas. Remember the crops arent going anywhere take your time and be careful.....God Bless the American Farmers.
I love the simply safe part of the video. Especially when the hammer came out!
Sorry Mr. Millennial, the installation of the new speaker was the highlight of my day, possibly even the week, right down to the bleeped out words when a screw was dropped.😘
At 22:40 - when your dad climbs in - it is clear to see the love between you two. God bless and protect both of you!
That's the guy that brought the bean head, it's not his dad lol
That’s the best simply safe commercial I’ve ever seen mrs mmf thanks for sharing buddy god bless everyone
Being a farmer is a lot more than planting seeds and harvesting crops. You wear a lot of hats.
"To yell at you kids when they are out of line" You gotta love her honesty lol
Great videos! I'm a parts manager at a JD dealership in Wisconsin and love seeing your equipment! Wish some guys in my area would do this.
Hey Zak. I found your channel by accident and been watching ever since. You explain to the experience and the non farmers in an easy to understand way. You have given me the drive to maintenance my own machines of John Deere. Given me a better understanding and appreciation of farmers in my area. If I see a tractor and a cart on the road heading to the grow op, I wait until the farmer gives me the opportunity to pass instead of raging and racing past him. I am in the market for my own 1025R to help out my aging father and fellow neighbours during the winter time. From this non farmer, thanks to you, your dad, Jim and everyone else on your videos. You bring a better understanding and fascination to what farmers do for the rest of the world. Stay well during this pandemic and look forward to the next batch of content.
The neighbors you held up with the road blocked were probably shaking their heads saying "that darn MF farmer can't drive". Lol. Great job getting it out without damage.
Use the right tool, she says, as she swings the hammer. I totally agree!
Nice Message from the sweetheart ❤
LOL - Becky has missed her calling! She is a natural for being an advertising model! Loved the friends sneaking into your hot tub! You are a lucky guy to enjoy a partnership with such a great lady. My wife and I have been married for 34 years with 3 great kids (okay they are more adult now than kids). We all enjoy watching your videos and escapades on the farm. Keep em coming! As Becky said - stay safe my friend.
It's like you over power you dad.the kindest dad i ever seen..
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one to drop screws when installing anything. 😄😁
I must say, I bet as a farmer, one of the sweet and initially unforseen benefits of adding so much extra work to your day as a "farmtuber" is the fact that you get so many equiptment companies doating over you with free extended demos, food drops, and hell even helping out with your farm operation like Jason ( i think that was his name ) the Honeybee rep did, driving your grain cart, running other members of your farm here or there and just generally pitching in when youre busy. Iam sure that part is rare, but its still no doubt being a farmtuber gets you ALOT more attention from brands and reps than just being a regular ole-farmer. I know their job is to come out to farms and get you to try stuff and sell you on it, but it generally seems like farmtubers get ALOT more equiptment and more no-strings attached demo hours for the exposure to your audience. I say good for you guys... all the farms I watch are relatively small family operations with a max of maybe a couple seasonal adhoc employees. IDK when I see this I feel good for you guys. Ya'll work hard and deserve to get some perks. EDIT: Also after finishing this video... Jason is a pretty awesome rep. Honeybee better take care of him... you dont see many guys like that, he really goes far and wide in the scope of his job.
Becky, I know exactly how you feel trying to take something down and dealing with hidden fasteners and Rusty fasteners. That was such a cute ad especially including the deleted expletives.
That is a very big change over the 4020D I plowed with when I was in high school in the 60's!
Becky needed a larger hammer for that speaker. Alan for the title today. (lol) Thank you for the video - glad the you got the truck / trailer out ok. Take care - be safe and hope the family and you are doing well.
Little tip from a trucker when filling def and get this. Trun the gun upside down and try filling that way. You bypass the automatic stopping the gun.
Just found this channel. Brings back memories of working on the farm (cutting, working ground, and etc) and throwing hay in high school. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Little low on coolant with the second truck you started. And the def nozzle soak in hot water and if you want to make it a little quicker use a brass wire brush. I would recommend removing the def injector on everything and cleaning the injection tips with hot water and that brass brush. Reason for the brass brush is so that it doesn't damage and scare the surface.
When you started the motor on the fuel trailer it scared my cat right out of a sound sleep. He hates lawn mowers and I think he thought that is what it was.
Jason stole the show! It's rare you see a man so knowledgeable and dedicated to ensuring his product succeeds, and when he could have been poking his phone he hopped into the grain cart and had a go. He's a man with skills and if you're going to pay for his time, he's going to earn it regardless! HoneyBee, get him up your sales chain and let him pick a team! He's the kind of guy who will refuse management, but love him up and teach him, and he'll better everyone within arms reach! Make your reps as skilled as the farmers, and feed it back to your engineers! You've got a good lad!
2:25... my favorite part of harvest season.
I must say Jason was a good rep for Honey Bee. Header looked pretty nice and innovative. Have to weigh the costs and is there any track record on the Honey Bee company much less their new header. Have to look at a lot and also it is not green but a really nice unit. Love Becky going in to get the hammer to "help" that speaker come off the mount. LOL. Be safe!
Look at Dad sorting out the problems with no fuss. Look at Becky just keeping on keeping on. You got it good guy!
I like how you can take the heads off and then put them back on I have not seen that. Thank you for showing that I am not a farmer. I grow it's pretty large garden but nothing like that but I am hoping in the next 10 years me and the wife we'll have our land and our property and our house built and I can start doing some farming stuff not like what you are doing but something to make sure my neighbors and my family are good.
To help prevent the def nozzle from clicking off, try removing the Little screen/filter from the top of the fill spout on the combine.
@6:20, when the trailer leans enough to one side it will pinch the drive tires on one side locking them to the pavement, and when that happens, unless they get real lucky, the truck is going NOWHERE until a tow truck gets there to lift the back of the trailer up, or at least the low corner.
Did you ever do an update on your father’s front lawn. Would love to see the progress. Love your videos.
Allyn hane, the lawn care nut, did one on his channel a few weeks ago
Becky looked very excited to be doing the video.
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. First of all congratulations to Becky for a great presentation on installation of the wireless camera. She is good with tools and explained the new camera with great detail. Many thanks Becky!!!!
I am sure Allen feels bad about running the trailer off the drive on. Know how I would feel. Zach you and your dad did a great job of getting it back on the road. Great going guys. Experience counts when dealing with these issues.
You dad seems to get around good with his knee. Love you dad and his calm approach to issues. Wonderful farmer with a wonderful attitude. Thanks Dad!!!!!!
Jason with honey bee is a outstanding employee of that company. He did a lot of work and stayed right with you during the demo of the honey bee. Looks to be a real nice head. Thanks Jason for your efforts to the family and Zach and dad.
Trust your truck and trailer are ok and nothing broken. Really appreciate you filming all of the harvest action knowing that takes extra time for you at a busy time. Really enjoy the harvest videos. Jim must be on the grain cart. Have not seen much of him. Good fellow there. About it I guess. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks Zach and Becky.
The Iowa farm boy from years ago.
We had the same issue on our s790’s last year and finally were fed up enough and we had local JD come out and we helped take whole tank/filler neck apart and like you said it gets all crusty and dries in filler neck AND all the dust clogs up the filler neck as well we drilled bigger holes in filler neck and haven’t had issue since
I don’t know what Jason gets paid but he needs a raise!
Farmer government subsidies are huge. Going to end bad in the long run. Ever wonder why almost everything has corn and soy in it?
He definitely isn't afraid to get in there and get his hands dirty.
How many cases of beer does Allen owe for that? That honey bee cart is a little different
Some truck stops had issues with crappy def nozzles but when they started charging them out for Husky brand which seem to be. Taking care of the problem. That was wild when Becky cut loose with the hammer. Holy cow.
The Government juice tank has a cone screen on the inside that doesn’t allow enough flow. Took it out of our machines.
That works until debris gets in your tank and wrecks the def pump and plugs the def dosing nozzle
@@ajmages that’s true but none of our tractors or cotton pickers have screens and we’ve never had trouble before. Figured it wouldn’t hurt and we’re going on the 3 seasons no problems with the combines.
We had the same problem here, pull the handle a bit back to allow more flow through the filter
Got a case that had a back flow float at the top of the tank at the end of the full tube. Took that out n u can pump as fast as u want
007n
Get a small bucket of water and set the nozzle in it after you use it and it will wash the DEF out of the nozzle and if it is doing that on off on off it has dry DEF in the little hole on the end of the nozzle so putting it in the water will clean that out and it won't click on and off on off.
I know this as I use The same kind of system at work I built a 3 inch 8 inch long pvc pipe with a cap on the end fastened it to the side of the tot that I pump out of and when done pumping then filled the tube with water then I put the end of it in that till I need it again have not had any problems with it in 3 years of use.
Thanks for the great videos please be safe out there.
Two things. #1-Becky. That. Was. Hilariously. Fantastic. You need to do more stuff like that. #2-The John Deere header with air is really good, but that HoneyBee really seemed to eat the beans like it was starving! That was impressive.
I love Becky's ad. There was no editing, and she showed you basically what we all deal with when installing something.
I love how Becky switched from trying unscrewing with the drill, to just wacking the bastard with a hammer 🤣🤣
We are so happy to see your dad working again we are going to keep praying for y'all and the farm God bless y'all
12 miles isn't really that long of a drive, especially with today's equipment. but if it's the longest drive you make, it does seem to take forever. We used to have an 80 acre field 24 miles away. I've made that drive many times on the International 656 Farmall. I remember dad driving the John Deere 45 combine to and from the field as well.
Welkers have some long drives to their fields.
Is it weird that I find it relaxing watching the honey bee working. Great videos and very informative
Hey, we use "government juice" daily at my workplace - testing emissions on diesel engines. If you can get your hands on some reverse osmosis water (RO water) it will cut through urea/DEF for cleaning. We've found that using de-greaser, windex or other cleaners just results in having to clean it multiple times after it dries but reverse osmosis water is by far the best way to clean up. It cuts through the deposits or the crystal buildups and we also use it run through all of our pumps and injectors to keep them clean. It seems that even in DEF injection systems if you don't use it constantly urea loves to build up and clog everything. I can't explain the science to why RO water works but it does. Hope this helps! Thanks for all the videos!
Yep, distilled water will do the same thing.
that was the best ad i've ever seen. wow, you guys are gonna set a trend with couples doing ads on their channels.
MY MAN
Becky takes the ‘Minnesota Speed Wrench’ to the old outside speaker…I gotta buy that lady a beer!!!!!!!
Best ad I have ever seen! 👏👏
Got to love Becky's hammer action! Then top it off with a few bleeps on the install. 👍👍
I grew up on a small hill farm in Wales. Predominantly sheep, but also with some beef. Consequently, I don't know a whole lot about arable farming, although in the days of horses and traction engines, our farm also grew crops and the old seed drill and threshing machine were still around to stand testament to that. I've learnt a lot from Millennial Farmer and I thank him for that.
Becky's add was the best part of this, I would like to see more of that content.
Nice job of getting the semi out! At Roehl Driving School they taught drivers to follow the back tires in your mirror around corners until the turn is finished.
That HoneyBee sales guy deservess a raise. He running around like he 20...
No bitching about driving that combine. I oned drove an old Allis, All Crop self propelled combine from Northfield, Minnesota to just east of Jordan, Minnesota, almost forty miles. That thing was slow, no cab, and, wandered all over the road. Be happy with what you have now.
I liked the camera shot on the header. It showed really well how the beans go in the combine. Good job with the videos. keep it up.
Thank you for demonstrating the proper vehicle inspection before you turn the key, ALWAYS check the oil!
I really enjoy watching you operate your equipment efficiently.
How in God's name do you guys afford to purchase, operate and make a living with the huge gorgeous equipment costs! I am a former Fire Chief and Paramedic and have done it ever since 18, from 11 to 18 I worked in my Dad's construction company! I live in a small town by farms and have massive amount of respect! As a Fire Chief I have a budget and run a department always in the red with taxpayers funds because there is no way to make a profit due to massive costs and those costs are way to huge for 1 homeowner or individual, especially with EMS services due we may get 35% return from insurance or any at all without going after the individual who can barely feed there family or pay rent! Thanks to your hard work I get to eat without having to try to figure out how to grow and get it to mine, my family belly! God bless you all really make and feed our great country!
I was cringing waiting for that wrench to slip off one of those bolts on the header sections and smash fingers.
abso blinkin lutely........ my knuckles were twitching as i watched that. a distant memory of excruciating pain and lots of claret eeek
Massive blood loss on those serrated edges
I was waiting for an amputation, YIKES.
Love the use of the all purpose tool in the ad.
That honey tea is made right down the road from my house. Pretty good stuff!
We had the exact same thing happen last year except the driver poured the coal to it when he felt it lug down from the trailer going in the ditch. He climbed out with his feet on the passenger window.
Bossman said he was gonna take the tarp and have condoms made from it for his twin teenage boys because it never broke and we barely spilled any beans. Driver was relieved of his position and truck is being stripped for parts now.
Sounds like both your tractors need battery cable attention, or batteries.
Back when i farmed, all of the sections were rivetted on. They were a pain to replace, you had to pull the sickle bar out. The way they do them now is a definte improvement.
I remember my dad and grandfather riveting on the sickle knives with a large ball peen hammer
Another tip of the cap to Jason, the hardest working guy in MN. He's doing all he can to make sure that Honey Bee head is working at top performance.
Not sure I like the trailer system though, seems like you spend a lot of time under the head.
I agree on the trailer, it's an interesting way to do it for sure, but you just don't spend any time underneath something held up by hydraulics.
