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 love watching from 10:15 to 11:15 -- just how fast the hopper was filling up with corn. Talk about visually illustrating your yield difference!

I was raised in Central Illinois in the 50s and 60s on a 900 acre farm, we had dryers too. All the stuff you are going thru we did on our scale and in our time. I saw this on You Tube was curious about the title Millennial Farmer. I left the farm in '67, went to school, got drafted and stayed out east to work as a Systems Engineer in Automation Technology. Watching you video reminds me of what i missed leaving the farm. I could have really gotten into the Farm Tech. Dad sold the farm when my younger brother dropped out, and then Dad passed away 2 years ago. He was drafted in '43 into the Marines and was wounded on Iwo Jima. He was a great guy and i miss him so much. A day does not go by that i don't have a memory jogged about life on the farm, fixing fence, hauling in Corn or Beans and baling hay, I learned so much from him. Your video is a treat to watch and heart warming to see the hard work is still alive, your Dad waiting in the hauler is so fun to hear. You take care and all the best. My experience with millennial's was not so positive. God Bless. D

Hi Zach, you are so right -- getting the crop in early makes all the difference in the world. If only you could control early seeding. This year has to be the worst you have ever faced. Love to see you and the team continuing to plug along -- early and late -- while maintaining an excellent sense of humor. Best wishes for continued success -- you all deserve it. - Dean from Edina

Looks good. We had our red machine elevator chain break, alarm didn't sound, thus plugged. Happened with 45 acres to go and snow called for. Snow came about an hour & half before fix. Now snowed out. Running between 25% & 28%. Not the greatest yesld this year either, grade 2 some 3. Wish you the best with yours & stay warm.

Ugh! What a difficult year it has been! From bad planting conditions in the spring, to bad summer conditions for growing, to awful conditions for harvesting. I'm sure plenty of farmers will be happy to put this year behind them. Best of luck with what you guys have left. Thank you for sharing it all with us.

Amazing how fast the Grain tank fills up. It has been many years since I have farmed, i am almost embarrassed to say the last corn I picked was wth a 324 New Idea Picker/sheller with a 125 bushel flair box pulled by an 1850 Oliver tractor. I kept two 80 bushel american batch dryers going 140 bushel yield at 25% moisture. Did 200- 300 acres of corn each year. Every year was a grind, but wet ones were a nightmare. Enjoy your cabs with heat. love your videos. THANKS for keeping an old ex farmer up to date on how things work now.

Nice you found some good corn 🌽. What a year. Hard to find a farmer not hurting. Please all you farmers fighting mud ,be careful. Wisconsin lost a young hard working farmer because he slipped in the mud. So very sorry for his family. Just breaks your heart. Please be as careful as you can.

Zach, can't help but sympathize with you and your dad this fall, been through a wet harvest or two myself, the whole time wishing I hadn't bitched about the drought years. You asked about fall tiillage and for comments as to it's value, and having been around heavy soil myself would only say the worst job you due in the fall, will be better than any job in the spring. Soil temps come up quicker and the seed bed however you plant will be much better. Best of luck on the rest of your harvest, stay safe

The perks from this You Tube thing just keep getting better and better!!! I figured when you were lowering those snouts the next scene was going to be well I I folded under a snout but sofar so good ! Just saw an ag news flash about an LP shortage in Minnesota long lines and going out of state to get it , are you on natural gas , haven't paid any attention to wether there is LP tanks around your dryer or not ! When you were still running in the snow I was relieved when you quit , of course having that beautiful shop makes it a lot easier to thaw it out !! Fortunately the snow has come and gone here just cold for now ! Funny how freezing can be so good for one operation and completely shut down the other !! Thanks for the video !

We had it bad, too. It was late planting I think for everybody. Had to wait a few days here and there for snow - got it all in before it got bad, though. Potatoes got a little frost bit, early spring rain was so hard it washed out the herbacides so there was tons of nightshade in the beans. The only thing that went right was the corn. Now there's 2ft plus of snow on the ground... Wyoming....

I work for a farmer just north of the border, in fact we are right on the border. We farm 5000 acres of canola, wheat, soy beans and corn. I watch your videos and I can totally relate. I have videos of combining in blizzards where I could not see the combines so I would have to keep track of who I emptied last and find him and follow unless his header was plugged with mud. We have 640 acres of corn that we have to combine in spring. We're hoping for a much better 2020. Love your videos although I love red tractors and yellow combines.

Hahaha because I have a folding header. Hey I live in Des Moines,IA. My mom worked for John Deere Credit back in the day. So I grew up in the city but went out to a few farms and got to hang out during harvest. Now that I’m older and have to adult now I don’t have time for that. But I have plenty of time to watch your outstanding videos. I haven’t miss one since last year’s harvest with the challenger. Oh hey it’s the Marine Corps Birthday Sunday so can we get a shot out.

The problem here in Northern Iowa is shortage of propane. Elevators are out and full of wet corn. Farmers with dryers are at a standstill.

I was running a disk ripper last night in corn stalks till around 11pm. ( west of Minneapolis about 50 miles)There was no frozen ground other the spots in the field the drowned out and were bare. I moved over to a soybean field and had to shift down a gear because of frost. I enned up breaking a couple of bolts and a shank at different times throughout the night. Finally called it quits at 6am as the frost was about 4" deep. Unless it warms up significantly there won't be any more bean ground plowed, maybe some more corn ground but with the predicted lows that looks iffy too.

Ugh. Snow corn. Been there done that. But not since I was a little kid back in the 80s. Too bad there wasn’t some kind of heat system that you could run on the sieves that would keep them dry and not “moist” and sticky in the wet crap that you’re going through. Best of luck to you from central Kansas. Sunny and cold here today. Harvest is close to wrapping up around here.

It would be interesting to hear about your tillage strategy and to give people an idea of how many passes you make total till/plant/spray/combine, etc. I vaguely remember being on my grandpa’s farm as a kid and I remember stalk chopping, rip, disk/harrow but he also did some no till stuff and seamed to have good luck with it
