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.

I watch your posts and am just floored at how technical farming has become and the breadth of knowledge you carry around in your head. Farming on this scale is fascinating. When I recall Mike Bloomberg saying how he could teach anyone to farm, I just think he needs to come out and spend a few days with you, and then challenge him to repeat what he said:
"I could teach anybody, even people in this room, to be a farmer. It's a process. You dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on top, add water, up comes the corn."
I'm glad there are people as hard-working and dedicated as you and your family and team meeting America's agricultural needs. Thank you and please keep up the great work.
Thank you very much for the kind words!
@PdrMarc i agree. I grew up on a 5 acre farm (with livestock, we were self sufficient for the most part) and even that was a lot more work than most people realize.
Glad you're keeping our magnet and tractor clean 👌
LOL
Lol love your videos keep the hard work up
Ya but it was shloopppy
Nothing that a little time and a high pressure washer can’t fix.
So is there a metal plate in leg arms, arm the magnet will attach to? I do hope he is recovering well.
>>>>>> you should do an interview with Jim so we can hear his story of farming... >>>>>>>>
That’s a great idea
Ditto
I've been wanting to hear Jim's story for a while. That's a great idea
off the husk podcast with jim!
One word: stuck
People voting for someone to run the county meanwhile your the one keeping it running thank you 🙏!
Work it while they can, because the one that Minnesota voted for will soon put them out of business, DONT believe me, I’m sure they could look back on the Obama years , and agree
How's he gonna keep the country running with no oil industry and fully electric farm fleets still about 150 years out! Lmao
Thank you for putting up”ole glory”.
I like the name for the quadtrac "The Welker Wagon"
WW 1, WW 2 next year
Wife's family farms in Connecticut river valley and am amazed how hard they work every day putting out problems fighting diseases, bugs, breakdowns, weather and the friggan govt.
I'm a little disappointed, at 3:52, after the THUNDERRRR, I was kinda hoping for a "WELKERRRR" when he opened the panel on the side of the tractor.
It is nice that you treat your Dad well! Enjoy him as long as you can! Mine passed in 2008. Miss him everyday!
Pro tip: tie a three foot long piece of bright colored nylon rope to a GoPro you mount to equipment like that. Makes it more likely to find if it falls off and bonus: if you don't find it right then you'll find it wound up in the cultivator basket bearings next season!
If the magnet on the camera mount is "kinda" weak, get a really strong magnet and hook the the camera to it with a short lanyard. Prolly tears up the camera mount if you have too strong of magnet on it when you remove it. Big ass magnet with a handle to make it easy to pull off and to hold onto the camera if it falls off.
Neon tape.
There's something so attractive about these guys! Man's man. Hardworking, high skill levels, funny, humble, & kind.
I'll let Jim know!! 😂
Beautiful Animals Thank GOD For All Of The American Farmers GOD Bless You All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MnMFr I'm not embarassed to say I'm a youtube subscriber, Instagram follower, and Off the husk listener! Finally I ate today so I'm thanking a farmer. thanks!!!
It’s good to thank a farmer but don’t forgot to thank God
I am myself a farmer of a small pecan nut and raisin farm in RSA, the farmer grows the food, the processor makes it into a sellable product, then it gets packaged, trucked, stored, stocked and finally sold to you. If the farmer grows it, but no one else does their part, you still won't be able to buy any of the food...
@@ZaberBiest I understand what you are saying. The global food market is so much different today that its ever been. However we still rely on the farmer to plant the seed before the chain can begin.
The comment that the dogs will attack if you break into the house at night is the Minnesota nice way of saying, "Stay off my property."
I gotta tell ya Zack, I have really grown to love seeing your dad and Jim's interaction when being filmed. Listening to them shows where your interest and knowledge come from. Stay safe and God bless.
crazy to think this is my 3rd year of watching this channel
Thanks for the support!
It’s a beautiful thing to see red and green working together with our beloved old glory waving. Thank you Zack. Great videos as always. .
"Dryer broke down for 2hrs" . ...... thats amazing customer service to get you goin in 2hrs!!!! dang!
Hi Zack, just a friendly bit of advice, wear ear protection as much as possible to avoid deafness later on in life, best advice i can give all farmers running noisy fans, driers, engines, pumps, compressors etc.
What?
@@Everythingisgoingtobealright from the words that were there, it sounds like richard walsh is concerned for zacks hearing being around the noisey parts of the farm
@@carterhakim5477
It’s a joke, you know, I can’t hear so I say “what”. 😁
Agreed. I knew guys who skimped on hearing protection at a printing press, furniture manufacturer and paper mill.
Those old timers lost a significant amount of hearing.
Its hard on a farm and stuff is only loud when you are right up to it like the dryer or grain bin fans tractors arent that loud anymore and they all have cabs now not likw when i grew up on the family farm
Need to house train those semis!
Zach Johnson for governor of Minnesota!
Forget governor how about President
@@matthewmcfadden6646 according to the news he better run under the Libtard ticket seeing how they want a guy who doesn’t know where he is or basic English to be president
@@flipco7239 true that
@@flipco7239 how old are you?

Pro tip you shouldn’t leave the thunderrrr trailer outside with that’s DEF in it because it’ll freeze.
That could be why you’re having problems with your nozzle
Keep your nozzle warm to avoid urea tract infection! Also, if you have an election lasting more than a week, contact your physician.
this makes sense. I never thought about it before but our DEF pump at the yard is in a little shack, protected from the elements
It's not that cold out here in Minnesota....yet. DEF freezes at 12F.
@@7rixee thats what she said
@@buckman840 well I told her I gotta tip for her, but she wanted the whole thing.
For anyone curious, lot 42 was a 2019 s780
it's fascinating seeing how the whole operation works
"Thunnndeeeerrrrr"
Thank for doing that Zach!
About to harvest barley in Australia hope it doesn't snow
Last time i checked it is 34 Celsius (94 Fahrenheit)
lol
Lucky dog....hello from Tx
Wont feel bad anymore for farmers when they vote for trump.they get what they wanted!!!!!
Hello from Ireland just starting the winter barley
Yea make sure you bundle up. Wouldn't want you to get sunburn,, wait I mean frost bite!!! Haha best of luck with your harvest from hampton ga usa. By the way I love watching the old videos of karl and Lisa and stevie Jacobs from y'all's news program from a few years back
I just love the way Zach and his dad work together. Cool to see the knowledge passed from generation to generation. I sit at at a desk all day for my job, this just impresses me.
For anyone wondering lot 42 was a 2019 John Deere S780 that sold for 400k
I was not the only one watching that auction
▶️Good stuff ain‘t a bargain. If you want it badly just pay a decent price😉
"Seagulls have found me" - thats a pretty much universal law of farming, no matter how far inland you are from the sea, start turning dirt and the gulls eventually find you :)
"look at that farmer taking the whole road..,, oh Hi Jim." LOL you crack me up
I tried playing farming Sim 2017 and I'm bad at it. Thank you for doing the hard work for America.
Jim just cracks me up
The nozzle on the def or adblue as well call it over here in the UK, might be kicking out due to a primary mesh filter within the filler neck on the tractor. Alot of people take it out to avoid the nozzle kicking out but as a new holland dealer mechanic I see alot of dirt in the systems due to the filter being missing. Great video. Keep up the good work 👍👌
We keep a spare magnet around the yard when they get fiesty..
YES JIM IS BACK! Good to see Jim back at the farm, Awesome video
Your dad is Awesome! Great listening to him!
We have same issues with our nozzles. Usually moisture. Stick it in an exhaust for a minute or two and it should fix it up
We have the same problem when fueling up semi's in the winter also
“I need an adult...” basically me every time I’m left to troubleshoot electric 😬😬😬
Jim's Old School Meter
@assassinlexx Yes they are. Thank you for your comment
That’s what I say when I hear Trump speak!
Hey Zach thanks for the great video and update 👍
I love it when Millennial Farmer posts right when I get out of school. I'm glad you found your go pro.
Listen to those John Deers purr. Nothing runs like a Deer.
12:00 man that’s some skill driving with no hands
😂
Thanks for picking us back up but man do I have a headache now
Hi I am 8 years old! I love your farming videos I do not live on a farm I did live in Minneapolis. But now I moved to Michigan I wanna be a farmer because of you! And I have dog like your # fun fact
You should do a feature video of just Jim. He seems like a cool dude!
I drive an 18 wheeler with def and every nozzle I use does the same thing
In Denmark, the biggest company is Maersk (Mærsk), it is a shipping company. Their saying is right care at the right time.The point is fix things right, when they fail.
One way to keep the nozel from kicking out is to leave it half way out
The question of life.
The quadtrac or the challenger from a couple years back . What would you keep? Class videos keep at it
Jim just had an awkward pause. "we'd better be." JK
Love how anxious you look every time you start a machine Zach!
I can’t believe I’m watching you in Michigan and it’s 65 degrees and sunny and you’re walking on frozen ground! Finish the harvest.
Hes in northern Minnesota. If you were in UP or northern Wisconsin you would have frozen ground to
10:01 “It appears to run on some sort of electricity?”
IBEW thanks you!!!
@@CurrentChoices great comment
You can keep your composure I plan on loosing mine
I would take of ya Zack, I just retired , an industrial Service electrician for 35 years, you guys were killing me in that control panel
67 GORGEOUS degrees in the Door County Peninsula of Wisconsin Wednesday !!
Glad your here to cheer us up cause this election is trying to keep us down.
I’m pretty happy about it so far
Especially how mail in voting is a massive mess..
@@Theghostofpeter there is no mess except for when they keep trying to make one.
@@OOpSjm, like not starting to count ballots until Election Day? Early has been going on in PA for a couple weeks.
@@Theghostofpeter Yes, that process could be a lot more efficient. This comes from the fact most of these workers are temporary or volunteers and traditionally mail in ballots weren't a large portion of the count and simply left till the end.
For those who pay attention he was talking about an auction and there is a combine on the screen at the end.... hmmmm
S-series combine
S790
Didn't see a combine
@@joshwagner5414 yeah maybe he said around the 700 series in a another video
20:34 where he’s eating a sandwich look at the computer
Its so awesome to see how well all of you work together and seem to be always on the same page.
That’s right! Keep our composure! Farming is hard work that never ends, believe you me! 👍👍👍👍👍🚜🚜🚜🇺🇸
I’d wait a day for tillage and then run 20 hours a day. But that’s me.
We are still harvesting in Ohio!!!!
As a fellow Ohioan I can't help but be disappointed in your profile picture.
still taking corn off in bowling green
@@kevinjr3747 What is wrong with the state of Ohio?????
@@nothingrunslikeadeere9915 well played
On your DEF nozzle we take a hot pale of water and put the nozzle in it for 10 minutes or so and shake it around. It'll clean up easily.
Great video! Always good to see Nate on the farm.
Loving the flag, Merica!
"Pull it out a little and slow it down and it does better"
My adolescent sense of humor can't let that one go.
That's what she said
Perfect opportunity for a "thats what she said", I will admit, I was a little disappointed!!!
Thanks
The best way to keep the def nozzles working. Get get a weed sprayer with water in it and spray it through the little hole on the bottom of the nozzle. What happens is urea crystallizes in the signal line and causes it to trip.
Great vid Even to I haven’t watched it yet I’ll say i like it
On that DEF, try flipping the nozzle around 90°. Kinda like what you have to do with squarebody GM
@Wikkitt Klown66 he’s talking about putting gas in one dummy
@@rippingit3770 I thought that was self explanatory and didn’t need to be broken down to the obvious. But here we are. Lol
Love pushing buttons! Like to see what happens!
The def is crystalizing in the nozzle we run into that issue a lot we usually have to replace nozzles every 6 months
This election is driving me nuts.
You have the choice between a Donkey and an Elephant,
both animals are stubborn,
they have their own mind,
to make them work for you, you have to beat the crap out of em
you´ll ride uncomfortable on both,
and in the end, you´ll have to feed them both,
and take care of the massive piles of manure they produce.
@@SirDigger420 That's actually really clever
Are those who are stealing the election being composed?
We can't let them do this!
Yes but trump just sold a mega amount of grains for you guys
@@thunderstruck1078 who is stealing the election,any proof
I just aggressively said thunderrrr in front of my family cuz I had earbuds in I am so embarrassed
It’s the quad itself. Does it all the time to me also!! Drives me nuts!!!
I'm an Irish lad who doesn't farm.. Knows a bit but not a lot.. But I cannot get enough of your videos since I found you a month ago 👌
Zach, the only way you would see me. Is at the local dirt track.
The problem with the def is the magnet 🧲 in side of tank of case is to high or it don’t have one at all usually it’s a very small black hole with a magnet inside that tells the handle it’s in the right hole. State law
If you have issue with def fueling, the problem is usually the chamber on tank. I usually rotate pistol. It usually helps.
We say with you every time..."THUNDER!" LOL!
Don't idle your engines after a cold start, this causes extreme wear and tear. Start it, let it smooth out for max a minute and start driving lightly.
Just give it a few revs and let it warm up
Would you ever consider talking some about the radios yall use. They seem to work really well!
They sound like some sort of DMR radio.
Called a business band radio......I think they can be uhf or vhf. Have to apply for a dedicated frequency for your area. Can be mobile to mobile or go through a base or repeater. Ours have a range of about 60 miles when using the repeaters. But we still keep using cell phones..... Lol
Appear to be Kenwood, likely NXDN.
That deff pump hose might just have to go in the warm shop. We had that problem with a diesel pump. Made the difference
Nice Zach to see last stage of the corn harvest, looks good👌
Zach, I gotta say it: you should probably put fluorescent/reflective tape on ur cameras...or tracking devices.
I bet those little bluetooth chips from Milwaukee would work ok. I've never tried them though.
Minnesota let us down!!!
Jim is a jake of all trades
I think the whole DEF nozzle issue is the same truck stops have save issue, the solution mixture crusts up then they don’t work.
It always makes me nervous when the dogs run in front of the equipment
Farm dogs know! We used to have a golden retriever that would try to bite the tires off of the tractors and trucks all the time he was the craziest dog we ever had. Nice as could be but hater tires lol. lived to be 17.
What are the birds eating when they are following you during tilling?
Worms that got dug up and insects, plus seed left behind from the combine.
Love Jims retro meter. I still have one in the tool box.
Yup, me too. Handy for checking batteries.
However, I became nervous watching Jim testing 3ph with that dime store meter. What’s the insulation rating! Here in Canada, 3ph is 575 v.
I would have felt better if Jim had used a meter like this
www.amazon.ca/Fluke-T6-1000-Electrical-FieldSense-Technology/dp/B076DYBHCW
NCV testing is far safer.
If you’re on a budget, I’ve had good luck with Klein
www.amazon.ca/Klein-Tools-CL800-Auto-Ranging-Digital/dp/B019CY4FB4
I’ve seen industrial arc flash accidents. Not a good thing
Make sure Jim doesn't break anything. You know how he is
I'm a simple man. I see MF content I hit the like button 👍
We all love the government juice (DEF).
Looks like u got a bit in ya guts mate
Gotta tell you when you stopped and put the stars and strips on the ripper I got goosebumps! I only wish more people would wake up get their heads out of their ass and feel the pride to be a part of what that great flag stands proud for! Thanks Zach and god bless.
Thunderrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
I've had problems putting govt juice in everything so it's not you.
Same here Australia , everyone I know has issues
I dont get it, we have 40 tractors, 10 trucks, 15 excavtors all running on def here in norway, and in colder weather, and we have no problems
It's the nozzle. I have the same issue when fueling my truck. I have had happen in warm weather also.
@@peterdavis8858 nozzle on what?
I just deleted mine
Volkswagen
Greetings from Lisbon - Portugal
If you fill the def from right side and unscrew the cap on the other side to let the air out it will fill up much better.
