    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.

    Crazy how fast corn grows!!! My first time ever growing corn in Florida this year! It’s already at 6ft and tassel. I’m used to cotton which grows slowly. Corn is a different beast!!!

    A lot of channels I see can be controversial but I don't understand for the life of me why someone would dislike any of these videos. Are they disliking the quality? Maybe the content? Someone has a bot that just automatically dislikes the videos? Maybe a bot that just dislikes all video with similar content. I just don't understand how you get to this channel and regularly dislike it.

    Zach your a Hoot, you could really tell you were getting close to being done and yes that feeling of being done and it starts to rain is a Awesome feeling but there is always something to do on the farm, fix stuff as I never put anything away broke and service tractors as back in the days when I was farming we then had to cultivate and that was my favorite job as we had a guidance system on our cultivator and all you had to do is keep the wheels in the center between the rows. Love your videos Mr. Millennial farmer.

    The weather has surely been acting strange this spring, here in Scandinavia there were a few warm days in April but now in May it snowed last week (Uppsala area Sweden ).
    Great to hear that the seeding season is finished, now it’s just to hope for the best.

      Derek, have you ever experienced frost this late in the year? I worked on a farm much further North in mid Canada in 1978. I never witnessed any frost until August, and I arrived there in April.
      Are you aware that "Global warming" is a fraud?

    • @adrianchetwynd1334
      @adrianchetwynd1334 4 роки тому

      That Canadian farm had land situated just 20 miles North of the main farm, and all the crops there were killed off by the August frost. So they were swathed and bailed for cattle feed.

Farmers used to mount a transister radio on the tractor hood (no cabs back then) so they could listen to the Twins games on "The good neighbor of the north".
