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.

Hey! I'm an engineer that calibrates traction control. Every vehicle I've calibrated has a button to turn it off for certain situations like what you ran into. Trust me, we experience stuck vehicles sometimes too. 😊
But when I forget to turn it off, I need to blame someone!!
It was 80 and sunny all last week here in northern Indiana . Alot of guys got out and started working ground. Now it's back in the 40s with wintery mix forecasted for the weekend and monday.
Thanks for another great video.
It was interesting and enjoyable.
Getting ready for spring is a busy time. Lots of equipment to get ready. The planter is the main thing to get ready. Now you dealer has it for some warranty work. Need time to get your end of things ready. Don’t let time run you over.
Always having to move things around in the sheds. Takes time to shuffle equipment from one shed to another.
You are right about snow melt. Once it starts then before you know it you have water and that lovely mud mud. Oh boy.
Time to get Jim and dad going. Lots to get ready for spring field work. Go time soon.
Thanks for the video.
Hang in there.
The Iowa Farm Boy.
Don't forget all the nails and screws on the new shed floor. Before you get to many flat tires.
*too
Here in WI, we had 88 degrees last Thursday with wildfires then yesterday we got dumped on with 20" of snow. This spring has been a rollercoaster
I love the subtle sarcasm: “luckily I was able to squeeze through this 60 foot door....”
I love the doggies and everything else you do. You rock. Wishing you a successful sprint planting season.
Cheers from upstate NY 🍻
Thank you!
Shed looks great warm day and door open and that floor will be like concrete. Love the fact that you know when to call it a day so you can do Family stuff. Thought the yankum rope was coming out for a pull on the Semi or snow chains but you got it. I also am ready for winter to be over.
How much does Ditch get paid for reading off adds. It seems she is very talented.😄
Probably one dog treat
Hopefully the best dog food possible.
Have I been hearing that wrong all this time? I thought the dog's name was "Didg," as in "didgeridoo," because she's an Australian Cattle Dog.
@@TimTheTerrible You & your reply are correct.
Didge. 👍
Nothing cus it’s dog
I live in Western Kentucky and the farmers around here have already got a lot of their corn planted. The man that rents our farm planted corn here almost two weeks ago. We don’t really have a mud season here. It will probably be a few more weeks before you can get in the fields.
"It's been a long winter, time to end that..." (As the camera pans to closing the big new door)
Zach is a marketing genius.
What about asphalt millings? Around here you can buy them cheap enough. Makes a good road surface
Lol never doubted it…..as you walk over the jump box hahaha
Nice kids. Well done, nothing more important.
That was quite the _most_😂 rant. Can you please make more podcast. Looking forward to this spring so we get more videos. Thank you
Thanks for the video Zach sorry you guys and you and North Dakota South Dakota got all that snow kind of sucks when you can't get in the field good luck this year
Hi!! I am Alex too and i am 13 too, I love the video where Alex is a operator in for the combine (i watched every video from that) (sry for bad english)
Love ur content
We have traction control in our prime movers here in Australia and it’s a curse. We have a switch that is called off road mode. When we turn that on it disables traction control and allows us to play in the mud without loosing power. We still get bogged just ten times worse
If you have steel slag available, it would make for a great driveway, new shed etc.. Around here, they call it Duraberm and is actually much cheaper than limestone for us.
Hi Zack in Melbourne Australia we had a late spring/ summer it’s out by 2 months 🇦🇺
Have a prosperous season.
Thanks for sharing!
ITS A POLL BARN PEOPLE! YOU BUILD THE BULDING THEN YOU PUT THE FLOOR IN. IF THATS WOOD, DIRT, OR CONCRETE.
Pretty optimistic about the weather, Zach. I mow grass at GC in Osakis, not leaving AZ until there is at least 3 days in 60's!
Well good you did not see last weeks Temps as Alex had at least 3 days after Easter in the 60’s some in the 70’s or you might be home by now and seen the snow that occurred Sat. and the cold weather coming this weekend.
Keep up the good work love your videos thank you
You got a switch on the dash to make your other axle work all 8 tires pulling I drove for 17 years in every kind of weather you can think of.
Zach’s so cute - he’s all excited about fixing the planter and no sensor codes or beeping this season. Oh the content to come. Beep beep beep….. downforce pressure….. beeep beeep beep row 4 singulation….. beep beep beep. ….. beeeep beeeep beeep.
😂😂
Get some of the recycling pavement it works like asphalt if you put it down in the summer...
snow went fast this year in my area, we had a few days of way above average temps.
Hoping this round of service solves all sensor problems on the planter! That planter has an amazing system for speed and accuracy to an old school planter guy.
I almost feel bad wearing shorts to work today.. seeing all that snow still on the ground.
So I think you should try taking another really long lunch break and see if we can find some warm weather again
Zach what's up brother. Haven't hollered at ya in a long time.
Holy cow! Your kids have grown up just since your last harvest video. When you first started this you had to pick them up to get them up on the tractor.
They sure have!
Don't remind me! It bums me out!
09 since you’re in the best time of your life right now, I’ve got a daughter 38 and three grand children, 17 seven and five and yeah you think about them when they’re teeny and you just Gotta keep telling yourself that how wonderful it is that I haven’t aged
I was about to comment the same thing😅
It is so weird watching because in Texas we started planting in late February
Kind of unusual but we only got snow one time in Ohio where I live never even put the blade on my tractor
You need a Martin 2.0 like Dougo to keep the botton of the bins clean
Planting corn in eastern North Carolina.
Anna needs a ride in the skid steer
😄
Very interesting to see the pallets of seed. Ty
I like that you show what difficulty there is with the spring melt.
Looks like you need gravel in the area where there's mud so you don't have to worry about spinning.
86 degrees here in the south. Our corns in the ground already.
I like the thumbnail work !
MMMM Moistness 🤣🤣🤣 Cracked me up and laughed out loud.
You like spending money on farm upgrades, any place that your heavy equipment is gunna drive that isn't potentially paved, I'd suggest a base layer of 4x8" rock (quarry spall where I'm at) then 1.5 inch crush gravel on top of that. That'll take care of your traction issues for a very long time
Turn traction control off and lock your diffs in, usually won’t get stuck
long winter doesn't even come close for a description!
Your channel was the first I started watching about 5 years ago. Still the best. Look forward to you and Jim working on equipment. Always entertaining. You led me to Welkers, Laura, Leaade, then found Matts offroad, Fabrats and others. Yours is still the most informative and wiseass (sorry)lol Thanks for all the work you and Becky do.
Same same 🤘🏻👍🏻
Not sure who I saw first, Welkers or Millennial dude, but Zach introduced me to Andy at Farming, Fixing, & Fabricating. I really enjoy that channel too. I watched Justin King doing recoveries of off road vehicles in the rockies with a group trail enthusiast and youtube sent some Matt video my way. Of course that led to Fab Rats, Robbie, Rory, Merlin. I don't even subscribe to all of them. But I think Zach might be my favorite, but there are so many good Tubers out there.
@@pinwizz69 amen those guys are very cool, hilarious and most of all hardworking.
I watched every single one farm video from Zach since I started watching this. I was watching Welkers and sometimes I'm watching Mike Mitchell, but I don't have that much time to watch them all. But I never miss a video from Zach. 😃
@@markreetz1001Check out Casey Ladelle. He does recoveries in Oregon. Not huge ones but he’s honest as well lol
"It's been a long winter, time to end that..." (As the camera pans to closing the big new door)
Zach is a marketing genius.
Wow still snow and ice …south Texas we’ve had temp in 90s already 🥵
I hope you change the planter
They deliver the pre-emerge with the seed? Used to be just fumes could effect the seed (or so they said)…
don't forget to move the marker light back out!!! lol been there done that!
We are planting corn in Indiana...
any thoughts on running sock tile in the new shed for some drainage
I found one of them jacks on a headland in 2020. A combine almost ate it up.
Hey Zachary, you were in good shape with today's channel. Love your wit, you really are quite amusing and I love your sense of humour !! Sure had more than your fair share of snow and ice this past winter !!
You know I love when you post a video, except when their titled “more problems with the planter”
The older that girl gets the more she looks like her mom. Wow! Happy spring, guys,say safe!
Yeah she's going to be a heart breaker!
When you try to remake this farm on farming simulator 22 and you got a shed mod that you found out was actually on the farm lol
Its going to be the most tremendous shed in Minnesota
It's already yuuuuuge!
I like the new sunglasses, theyll look good if you keep the mustache. Also yeeah you brought up the soybean maturity, we planted 109 to 114 day corn this year, we are already done surprisingly. And for soybeans we are planing some 3.8s and the rest are 4.0 to 4.4 maturity. But we combine the corn first typically, sometimes we switch to soybeans if they are ready and then go back to corn.
Order inch and half rock x 4 - 6 inches depth
Hey Zach, you need #2 Limestone on your driveway - ask Mike Morgan (Outdoors with the Morgans) channel - he does and his driveways are GREAT !!😅😅😅
We don't have any limestone around here!
So excited for planting season to start again. Great videos this “off season”.
You can afford this stuff, but I can't even afford the necessary things. Help would be great once in awhile.
Re: The new shed floor. The shed is complete, the equipment is protected from the elements, the floor is no worse then the walk over to the shed, the floor can be massaged into shape. Waiting for conditions to be perfect to build would have been worse. Looks good to me.
Hey Zach, Thank You for another great video! I can't believe anyone would criticize your new machine shed! The weather just didn't cooperate fully when it was built, anyone with a brain could see that! Anyway, when it's finally finished it will probably be THE best machine shed in the entire State of Minnesota! Hang in there kid! Until your next video ~~~Stay safe, healthy, warm and happy! 🚜🚜
That’s crazy, we’re putting corn in the ground in Bama😳
You're lucky all of your "Bama" snow has melted!
@@paulcopeland9035 we only average 1.5” a year so it don’t take long😂
I bet you have a few flats this year? How muddy it was last fall and that shed.
Great video!
When is Off the Husk coming back?!
It's Go Time!
Id suggest some crushed rock under the gravel. Helps stuff drain.
Forever and Always my favorite UA-camr!! Love your videos Zach, anything you can do to pump them out more often would be awesome!
"I'll just throw it over here in the big shed where everything is moist" 😂😂 idk why but that one had me laughing WAY too hard. I mean, all the times he used the word moist or any form of the word is hilarious but damn, that one got me good! Lmao
A lot of people say there's no frost
As a Minnesota native, I too have a severe snow allergy. I break out in hives just thinking about shoveling it.
Forgot this guy was a youtuber its been so long
You know Dougo traded in Martin, you might go get him, he can help you keep your shop floor clean.
Martin was sold to Chet’s BIL.
@@ko9446 BIL ?
@@kred3208 brother in law
@@ko9446 thats right I remember. But maybe Zach should shop for 1 of his own. Maybe call her Rhonda. That was a girl I used to know
Boy the kids are growing don’t have to deal with mud on our farm as I also work at a local stone quarry
I get stuck all the time too lol always funny when it's not you lol
Time to get the floor sweep out
One thing I noticed lately is your content in your videos is not as big headed as somebody else who farms close to you. And I hate to say that because I like watching both of you guys. Maybe it's just me. Good videos. Keep up the good work.
It's just you.
@@sallydunbar1683 Not so sure.
I don't know for sure which one you're talking about, but I can say that I have met *most* of the other larger farming youtubers in the U.S. and they are all very genuine people in person! Most are great people who work very hard. Either way, thanks for watching!
What’s the thing on the 3 point linkage of the tracked tractor when you were hooking up the planter
Some people say it's the best shed in the world, i don't say it but some people do.
Zach ditch needs royalties for her sales lease 5% for her hard work 😂😂
*Didge
If I lived way up North and had the capital, I would buy 500 acres in Missouri or Kansas and farm down there in March and April then go back North in May to farm....I just couldnt handle the seemingly never ending winter... Or even AR/OK....
It's about time to pave or cement the yard
The half hearted president Trump impersonation with the “It’s gonna be the greatest shed in this township” cracked me up. Great video, cheers to winter getting gone!
He is no longer the president. He soon will be known as convict Trump.
You could fix the exhaust pipe on the Moline
In be 4 pending fault codes ^^
Good to see catDog running in the shop keep it up thanks.
Dang Zach, why couldn't you just leave the truck stuck? We love when you get things stuck!!..lol
Traction control can be turned off usually!
I have to laugh, to paraphrase Daggerwin (UA-camr who plays farm simulator) “It’d be much harder in real life to connect an implement than just to…’press Q.’” He and I both have enough experience to understand very well the struggle with real machines.
If farm simulator with serious they would have you get out and manually at least click on where the hoses and cables and connections go, and would punish you if you didn't line up the back end of the tractor with the front end of what you're attaching properly.
@@JeepWranglerIslander FS19 had manual attach and you could connect the hoses manually too. Just not in as interactive a way as you’re talking about. But that would be cool. I’m pretty sure 22 doesn’t have manual attach right now.
What did the neighbors get theirs out?
Off the husk podcast...when might that kick off again? 😁
New drinking game called "Moist" did shots on every moist. I am now drunk Thanks a lot Zack!!! MMMOOOIIISSSTTT LOL
More videos would be great Zach. Just saying
I’ve been delivering seed to a lot of farm’s lately. Unfortunately my boss is a cheap dude and the seed boxes kick my a$$ with the manual jack lol
When the new shed was built why did you not concrete the floor?
Because the concrete bid was $107,000
