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.

Every bushel of corn that Zach brings to the ethanol plant according to his states average *since I don't know what plant exactly he goes to or if they even publicly report their conversion rations.* A bushel is roughly 56 poounds. Going off the math 19 pounds (2.7) of that weight turns into ethanol 18 pounds into distiller grains/high protein animal feed 18 turns to high grade carbon dioxide which in most places in the United States becomes food grade carbon dioxide for making sodas and beers. and roughly 1 pound of waste/chaff/carbon dioxide and other waste gasses. Thanks for coming to my informative Ted talk.

Aren't there certain requirements that make it highly likely that refineries use a certain percentage of ethanol in the making of regular grade gas? If so, although its not a direct payment to growers its a method where gov't very strongly encourages corn to be used it that way. Corn instead of other plants?

First, I really appreciated the insight into your financial operations. I don’t know why, but I find farm finances to be tremendously interesting. Ethanol is mandated by the Federal Government. While a mandate may not be a direct subsidy, it is certainly not the free market. I agree that the Oil and Gas industry should not be subsidized (and I am in the Oil and Gas industry), but Ethanol is not what the free market would choose even with fuel blending mandates.

Some of that energy comes from renewables. More and more. Also, the water mentioned is does not disappear. It is condensed and returned to the circle. Water is reusable, and this stays pretty clean.

@Ax Man Yes but most of our imports come from Canada, Mexico, and South Americal. The Saudis are only about 11%. The amount of fuel consumed by the tankers as a percentage of fuel they carry is very tiny (ships are incredibly efficient compared to trains and or trucks. Hard to get the data but probably much much less than 1% of fuel hauled is consummed and that is for 10% of our energy. Probably takes more fuel to produce/haul corn for ethanol production. So not a very good argument to justify ethanol tax breaks. Just sayin
@willernst8376
@willernst8376 3 года назад
That is not true, it is not a gallon for gallon trade for ethanol as that would put those companies out of business. Ethanol is always cheaper than gas in price so how could you make money if you pay more for the fuel than you can sell it for? Also the plants that made the fuel suck carbon out of the air, in that way ethanol is carbon neutral as it does not put any carbon into the atmosphere that it did not get from the plants to begin with. And since ethanol has no subsidies, they simply could not use one gallon of fuel per gallon of ethanol. Price of ethanol 1.17..... price of diesel 2.43. Think about it they would lose 1.20$ every gallon they sold
@rodjohnson2938
@rodjohnson2938 3 года назад
@Ax Man Here is a copy of the information on ethanol subsidies taken from www.thoughtco.com/understanding-the-ethanol-subsidy- "Trump took office in January 2017, all seemed well with the ethanol subsidy until early October, when his own EPA administrator Scott Pruitt announced that the agency was considering lowering the EPA-mandated subsidy payment level for ethanol “slightly” in 2018. The suggestion sent shockwaves through the Corn Belt and its Republican congressional protectors. Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley accused Trump of a “bait and switch,” in reference to his empathic campaign promise. Grassley and Iowa’s other Republican senator, Joni Ernst, threatened to block all of Trump’s future EPA appointments. The governors of most Corn Belt states joined in sending Trump warning him than any cutback in the Renewable Fuel Standard program’s subsidies would be “highly disruptive, unprecedented and potentially catastrophic.” Faced with the potential loss of influence over some of his strongest congressional backers, Trump quickly told Pruitt to back off any future talk of cutting the ethanol subsidy." The subsidies keep changing form but they are still there whether they are in the form of mandatory blending, direct payments to ethanol producers, tax reductions on blended gas or other forms.

I think it's important to note (for those who are not familiar with commodity markets) that today’s corn crop is mainly used for biofuels and as animal feed (roughly 36 percent of U.S. corn, plus distillers grains left over from ethanol production, is fed to cattle, pigs and chickens). Much of the rest is exported. Only a tiny fraction of the national corn crop is directly used for food for Americans, much of that for high-fructose corn syrup (which by the way is a major contributor to high obesity and diabetes rates in the U.S.)

We tow our 40’ Fifth Wheel with an HDT (Class 8 Heavy Duty Truck) and our Comfort Ride 308 hitch has one of those plates mounted. We absolutely LOVE that skid plate thing. It is awesome! If you get a 5er, tow it with your semi, you will not retreat having the power to Safely pull And Stop your trailer. If I could I would include a photo of ours’. I think you might be surprised how nice they are. Thank you again for the video!

You boys should wear a lanyard attached to a belt around your waist, when you go into those grain bins. This comes from my experience as a lineman going down into manholes , or going up poles.

Zach, not telling you what to do, but batteries that have massive dirt on the top of them can cause a small discharge/short when that dirt gets damp. Always keep the batteries clean.

Nice description of the contracting process- basis differential with CBoT. Interesting. Thanks. Great safety message too. Easy to imagine you saved a life there.

Glad your neighbor is safe. I've been on many EMS calls due to farm accidents. Stay safe. Blessings.

Got to love trucks always something to fix. We have 9 Peterbilt silage trucks which most of the time need something during season use and 9 Peterbilt semi trucks that haul grain cattle whatever. So there is usually a truck in the shop for something. And yes PLEASE be careful in those grain bins have been in on a couple of recuses not fun they all made it home to there families but could of been worse. The one the son actually was on site and drove the loader tractor into the side of the bin which probably save him.

We've used those teflon/resin plates on our 5th wheel camper for ten years or so and absolutely love the grease-less operation....with the exception of the jaws and king pin of course. It will be interesting to see how they work in a farming environment where things tend to be a bit dusty, muddy and all around more abrasive. Also, very happy to hear that your neighbor escaped the grim reaper! As you said, be careful in those bins.
