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.

@michelle778 3 года назад

At the auction it is still fun. But when everything is gone and empty it gets tough. Our neighbor didn't want to go into his empty stable anymore after the cows were gone...

@johnsebar7807 3 года назад

I think the same. In a lot of ways it is just so sad to see another farm sold off. Good for whoever gets it but the end of this mans dreams and years of hard work.

@TheWheelinranger 3 года назад

That's how it was when my grandpa retired, was hard seeing tractors that we learned how to farm with getting loaded up and leaving

@vvldinoss1063 3 года назад

Well, imagine if he passed the whole farm to a family member and then he would have to watch how they would sell everything way bellow theyr value. Or pass it down and watch them fail due to lack of responsibility and care. My thoughts why the guy sold everything is that noone in the family wanted to farm.

Zach, not sure if you’ll see this but, we run strip till in western MN, and tried the same idea with a rotary hoe you have. First year we noticed it threw trash back onto the strips and weren’t exactly satisfied with it. Ended up taking off half of the wheels so they only ran over the strips and not between also. after that, it worked great! Just an idea if you’re looking for something.
