Should do an updated farm/ equipment tour like you did a few years ago. Would be cool to see how the farm has changed between videos.
That video is well needed
It’s all different. That sprayer was the last piece (minus the 2 kenworths)
Maybe later this summer when things slow down a little, good idea!
@@MillennialFarmer I’d say your the best farming channel on UA-cam. I don’t think many UA-camrs take the time to read and respond to comments like you do, You’re out here supplying the world with food while taking the time to do this, thanks man.
@@TheRealJesseStoltzfus the moline, and two duallys too
Awesome to see another Canadian small equipment manufacturer highlighted on Millennial Farmer! Awesome to be able to come and go across our 49th parallel border so easily!
That radar you drove past is actually pretty neat! It's the old Stanley R. Mickelsen Safeguard Complex. It was the only part of Safeguard ever built, and it was an early anti ballistic missile system. Place even has an underground, armored power plant.
If you have Party Mode, then it only makes sense to have lighted booms on the sprayer.
You can always add the disco balls later
You know it’s built in Canada bc of the hockey puck door rollers. I love footage of Tony Fast’s DASH trailer in party mode in the field when it’s pitch black out.
That windshield went from "clean" to covered in bug guts in the snap of a finger 😂
If Zach adds any farmland to the north, he will become the Canada Millennial Farmer.
Windshield bugs, the Minnesota state bird.
I'm working on an update to the finger snap that should prevent this issue
@Millennial Farmer that update might require you washing windows but you do not like washing windows. I see, Even if some washer fluid and wipers can do it for you lol🤷♂️😂
Goes to show: don’t snap your fingers while driving.
I want to tell everyone to be extra careful around moldy corn. I did this same thing earlier this year and got a terrible case of Esinophilic Pneumonia. Antibiotics won’t touch it and took a CT scan and a trip to the pulmonologist to get it figured out. Wished I would have made the long trip back down to get a mask.
Dang the view from the bin shows exactly how large that cart is. That thing is massive
That self-cleaning inductor thing with the valve handle geometry is clever!
We’ve had some very bad days of smoke all the way down here on Long Island New York even. Prayers to everyone affected by these fires in Canada.
Did you notice how clean the floor was around the dogs tail. Adorable. One happy pup.
THANK YOU, I've over come a serrious addiction myself and come January ill be 4 years clean and sober of that.
After working this spring at the Co-op in Alvinston Ontario Canada has given me even more hope that Im doing something positive for the world and not dwelling and killing myself in the meantime.
Farming is its own therapy in a way, the stresses and anxiety is actually focused on an positive outcome.
My goal is to take reins of our 100 acres in the next year or two so my step father can relax and enjoy himself. (But still pull wagons, reverse situations from 15 years ago.)
I did it too and have been more free since I did. More time to just have fun and enjoy life. I'm never looking back. The 80's almost killed me. Stay strong and focus on your new life brother. You will see things a lot more clearer every day. I can say I enjoy life a lot more now than before.
Congratulations, Cody! That is not an easy task to accomplish - four years is great. My step-dad had 34 yrs sober when he passed. Wishing you 30+ more years of sobriety. Well done, Sir.
Nice to see your dad wearing the Canadian maple leaf t-shirt!
Nice additions/upgrades to the farm. 👏👏 …I’ll look forward to riding along via UA-cam as usual…just like my ancestors used to do when your ancestors were making the videos.
I didn’t see Anna I hope that she is okay. Your dogs are so well behaved and watch over the kids in such a loving way.
She was at the beginning of the video
7:20 bottom left.
She's doing well! Laying on the shop floor right now
You silly midwesterners, shocked at smoke in the sky 😂 I am just sitting in Northern California happy that fire season hasn't started yet for us 🫣
I'm also in NorCal, I await the asshat who mows In the middle of the summer and or PG&E equipment fails 🤷
@Hanky Bannist8r I weed eat with a fire extinguisher on my hip lol take NO chances. My area hasn't burned is 30 years 😪
Southern california here and same! My fuckin SDG&E bill is pretty high though, trying not to run the AC this summer
WOW, in and out of the country with NO hassle!! That's good. That trailer should make a BIG difference in spraying now. That and the new sprayer will get spraying done in an hour or two, (YEAH right) That is one heck of a lot of learning there Zack!! Gonna be real interesting. Thanks for taking us all along. I was sweating you IN that dang grain bin. You KNOW how dangerous that is!! Don't you?? Just joshin ya!! Great video. Thanks again.
The more I watch this channel and other farming channels, the more impressed I am at the technology utilized in modern farming. Props to your dad and Jim for keeping up. I'm a senior and even though I have advanced degrees, earned when I was much younger, I think it would take me a long while to get up to speed with all you've got going on.
Oh yea that new to you guys sprayer and new sprayer trailer is going to be sweet to watch, can't wait to see it in action.
Zach you and your family never disappoint showing us all how amazing you guys are. Utterly amazing, keep up everything you guys do helping thoes in need and educating. We need more families like yours in this country to bring back the generations and ways you grew up and were brought up in. Stay amazing my friend!
Vnc
Jkkl
I get scared when someone has to get in the bin just from the thought of being crushed & suffocated. I’m actually terrified when someone climbs the bins. Good thing I only watch farmers & don’t farm.
I’m in p.a. Work in nj on the highways the smoke was pretty bad for two or three days in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey… I hope they get all contained up there sending our northern neighbors prayers
Congrats on the new equipment. Nothing is cheap these days. Sucks that you have to keep spending enormous amounts of money in order to keep things flowing as well as you do.
It's awesome seeing you working along side your dad and kids when they are involved.
Awesome video. 🚜🚜🚜
The Pyramid was part of the "Stanley R. Mickelsen Safeguard Complex". It was closed almost immediately after being completed back in the 1970s. The pyramid was actually the Radar component (the circular part is where the face of the radar would have been) rather than a missile silo.
The PWMS on the sprayer nozzles is the way to go. It is so cool how they adjust on the go. I think you are going to like how efficient and effective they are.
Pretty cool seeing seeing that Behnke Trailer in action. I work for the company that builds those trailers for Phiber. I used to weld the main beans for them. They are located in Farley Iowa!!
Awesome looking spray trailer Zach
Wow. Once again you show us another aspect of technology with farming applications. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. J.Au-en
His passion is very inspiring, I admire him
The mirror is just sitting on the sprayer wing 😂😂
Thanks Zach for taking us along on the Video getting the new trailer and sprayer!👍👍
He always delivers quality content, I respect his work
That pyramid in North Dakota is not a missile silo. That is basically the only anti-ballistic missile battery ever built by the United States and it ran for a sum total of one day before being decommissioned. That site is now owned by a hutterite colony.
I now know the rabbit hole I'm going down as I lay in bed tonight. I must know more about this
Stanley R Mickelson safeguard complex on Wikipedia
It was the highest tech Rader array that was obsolete by the time it was finished, cost billions by today's money
@@letbriandoit8978 actually the main radar array is further to the East and still operational to this day. Although it is no longer part of the Air Force and is now part of the space force.

Welcome to Canada Zach! Hope you enjoyed your short visit here. You’re always welcome back! Congrats on the new sprayer trailer, it looks amazing!
Congrats on the new spray rig and trailer!!🥳🎉
I am really enjoying your video's. Being a non-farmer I am really fasinated with what all goes on in the business. I would love to just observe first hand a day to 20 in the life. Keep up the awesome content!
Awesome looking equipment. Enjoy your videos. Thanks for everything that you do. 👍👍💝🙏
Congrats on the new to you sprayer. Sounds like you’ve got everything on it you want. The new trailer is going to really improve spraying efficiency!
I love watching your new farm equipment videos.
On your spray rig
I don’t remember who it was but they added a coloring to their mix
And it looks really cool
Lemon colored spray very cool, looking and very easy to see at night and even fluoresces
That is the color of the black bean spray. Larson Farms.just showed it.
As a Canadian , Zach. I put in a good word for you so that customs would let you in.
Your welcome. ❤️🤣
His welcome?
He has a great personality, I enjoy his videos
Interested to see how you like the transmission and engine speed management in the new sprayer. I won't go in to too much detail , but I (and my team) are closely involved with the control software.
Awesome video. The new trailer and sprayer are a great investment I am sure. Be safe in those bins.
Congratulations on the new truck as you will love your GMC Duramax. As you I was a long time ford truck owner and was having trouble finding a F250. And saw a used GMC HD 2500 on the sales lot. Bought it and have never looked back. I assume you will go with a 5th trailer and you will love it as well . Good luck and always enjoy your videos.
Nice looking new sprayer to u Zach
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable.
Wow. Lots on this video.
You new spray trailer is super nice. Has a lot of great features. Like that it cleans the containers as it uses them. Lots of hi tech accessories on this trailer.
On your ride home you mentioned seeing a missle silo. That is in fact part of our border radar system. Not a silo system but above ground radar. Watched the border for us. Am prior Air Force and have visited there before Zach. Neat system. Technology has passed it by now this day and age. Pretty old system.
Love your new Deere sprayer. Really a super unit with all the accessories you and dad put on it. Really high tech unit. You are setting great with the new sprayer and trailer. Very nice Zach and Dad. Wow. Super system.
Thanks for showing us what you did. Once you have time give us a rundown on the new trailer and sprayer. Would appreciate that.
You went into the grain bin and walked around. Did not see any safety equipment. Do not quite understand. Why would you not have safety equipment on?????
Just seemed not safe to me. I might not be understanding the situation.
About it for now. Thanks for everything Zach and crew.
The Iowa Farm Boy. Steve.
"I hope that lighting system isnt too cool, ill only want to spray at night" thats literally me
Less wind at night mostly. Unless a front is coming.
“It’s unbelievable how far that smoke travels” we have smoke particles on the south coast of Norway from Canada.
Helo Norway from Quebec Canada
Talk with Chet Larson as he may have lots of tips and tricks to operate that trailer. 😎
Thank you for all the information you shared really enjoy it
Cool your keeping up with Tony Fast
I luv your channel, and I don't even farm or have a tractor... seems like a fun time working!
Ha Ha, leever / lever, your dry sense of humor gets me each time. 😝😊
Thank you for the video. Beautiful trailer.
Very nice sprayer rig. Thank you
It wasn't so much that Canada let you in but if the US would let you back? :) Thank you for all you and your family's hard work and sharing the video.
like olgie olgithorp. "this young man has had a trying rookie season, with the penalties, jail, the suspensions, the deportations, and his country refusing to let him back in" - name that movie.
Always Learning... Good Job !
So, when are you taking the sprayer to Mars? 😃
Can't wait to see that Spray trailer in action!! Very very nice..
Stoked to see how you like the new gen sprayer. Quite the upgrade coming from the 30 series 🤘🏼
I respect his work, he always delivers quality content
Keep up the good videos Zach.
Things are looking good as you get new equipment in.Keep up the good work.
We run two of those 410’s with the carbon fiber boom and exactapply. LOVE those sprayers!
The farm I work part time on is buying a used 24 row strip till tool from a farm roughly 8 miles from your farm. The conversation came up because your neighbor asked if my buddy had been on "Big Tractor Power and he said they had been on there several times and your neighbor farm said that the MF was about 8 miles away. My buddy did buy the strp till tool and now they got to figure out how to ship it to western Kentucky from what he told me, it is huge, very tall.
Hope you enjoyed the trip to Crystal City to get your Dash trailer. Thats the area I grew up in. Too bad you couldn't of been up here when the canola crops are in bloom.
Didge never lets any wayward pizza bits hit the floor...😊 15:25
Woching from England your equipment you have is another level i would love farm in America ❤
What an awesome trailer. You could just drive it around and increase your coolness!
And while in party mode! 🤣🤣🤣
I enjoy his videos, he has a great personality
Farm technology is amazing.
Great video Zach
Sounds like that sprayer is basically a really big repurposed electronic fuel injection system. Now, you said that the nozzles had lighting. If each nozzle had a light, and the lights could be strobed in sync with the nozzle pulses, it would freeze frame the spray pattern. That would be really cool at night.
Get UV Blacklight blue lights for the sprayer boom, and add Ultraviolet dye to the sprayer to see the spray pattern better. And it should look fantastic... 😊
Thanks for sharing that sprayer looks awesome I’d love to try it out myself 😢lol
Upgrades, that's what I like to see! Nice job
Congrats on the new sprayer and trailer
Looks like the Johnson, Larson, and Brown Farms all got new spray trailers this year.
Good job guys
I have never been near a farm before, but I find this content fascinating and kind of wish I worked at a farm. I understand it's stressful, difficult, and expensive, but damn it seems way way better than sitting at a computer 12 hours a day.
I was surprised to see the Nekoma radar station. I grew up on a farm 5 miles from there when it was being built and during its very short period of operation.
Thats awesome about the donations, alot of people don't get help because they think it's out of reach because of many things but cost is one of them, I know I've been there! Everyone deserves help but very few want it, you are loved and deserve to live life even if you think you don't! God bless!!!
Things must be going well as the cost of the new equipment is a LOT of corn and soy.
Prayers for plentiful harvests!
I can't even imagine the cost of that equipment. Just for fun, stopped at a body shop to see how much to paint my car as it is getting a little rusty. Minimal body work and paint - 14,000.
The new trailer and new sprayer is expensive as much as 500,000 total. Not from Corn and Soybeans it’s from UA-cam$$$$
I enjoy his videos, he has a great personality
Tony Fast has ran Dash system last few years and look to be so well setup. Super nice upgrade!
I was up in the Bakken in 2014/15. It wasn’t uncommon to see military guys working around those silos. Multiple Humvees with guns on the turrets and a helicopter escort going down the highway above them. When they were at the silos the Humvees would be backed in pointed outwards with men on the guns ready to light somebody up. I was told they were swapping out nukes for maintenance purposes. No idea if that was true and we never dared to pull in and ask lol! Quite the sight tho!
He always delivers quality content, I respect his work
Be careful in those bins. I had an uncle who got sucked into a grain bin in Saskatchewan. His adult son saw what happened and he ran the front end loader into the corner of the granary and tore it open. The uncle's life was saved. The cousin turned out to be a hero who saved a life. Take care. Granaries can be dangerous. We have an acquaintance who saw his two young daughters get sucked into canola as it was being unloaded. They were suffocated and the father was right there. No one needs that kind of grief!
He has a great personality, I enjoy his videos
Zach, about Grain Bin safety, I used to be in the pressure cementing business for the oil industry and one thing we would use in our silos were rubber pads mounted on the inside walls that vibrate with air pressure to keep the cement from bridging off. I wonder if something like that would work in your bin silos to keep the grain from bridging off?
Been an avid fan of your videos for over a year now and have gone back and watched almost all from the beginning. It's fascinating how technology has been integrated into farming.
A couple questions I have I don't recall if you mentioned in previous videos.....How many acres do you farm both owned or leased? How many bushels of corn and beans did you yield last year?
Your DAD is so laid back. Ask him what the secret is. Thanx from Clear, Alaska.
Hey Zach, my mom grew up right by that radar station/missle silo thing. It's pretty a cool thing not gonna lie
Take no chances, use the harness whenever you go into a bin 👍
Great video!
That sprayer is almost as nice as the 500 gal 45' Demco I used in the 80's ;)
I like it Zach. Thanks for the great content as always
Ooh i got an apocalypse now chill when dad was sitting on stairs not saying anything. Look like Marlon Brando when he's in the water😱😱😱
Me too.
Idea, a time lapse of the field near the house growing through the year. 😊
He is very creative, I like his style
wow. after all the fun with the planter last season i cant actually believe you decided to go with pwm on the sprayer......good luck i guess.. i cant believe boom recirc is an option. been standard for years on uk sprayers
Always though the main point of recirc booms is that the chem is already out to the end of the boom when you want to start spraying.
So you never have to do the thing that none of us ever did with a dead end system of backing the boom into the hedge and turning the spray on and waiting for the chem to reach the boom ends….
That new sprayer and sprayer trailer looks like a slick set up! To bad the chemical trailer wasn't painted green instead of orange.......
Wow, that clean out time, now that's some good Phiber. 😂
Thanks for helping oot Zack
Must have been a great time learning all aboot how those leevers work. 😉
From New Liskeard Ontario, Canada, great farming videos
I've never been more jealous of you til now! Love that spray trailer!
Just get ya one man 🤣🤣
@Lee Kempf shut up Lee lol definitely thinking about it
