I keep commenting on your videos but you do an outstanding job of showing everything that happens in just one day that totally throw a wrench in your plans. Having to deal with breakdowns that cause you to lose time in the field, weather etc. I appreciate your comment at the end-yes, many people who don't really know think its just sitting in the tractor and getting the job done, but that's almost the reward after dealing with all the small, sometimes big problems that are normal, yet unexpected. And trying to figure out if the tillage implement is performing as it should be can be hard. Though different parts of the country have to deal with different issues and factors, it's all hard work!!
Thank you for the awesome compliment! Farming is always an adventure. It can be really tough work but it's rewarding!
ya i do a big aporrashon so i know how much work it is but it is fun for me.
WE ARE CLOSE TO 200,000 SUBS!!! Help us get there before New Years! Share our stuff and tell your friends!
MN Millennial Farmer, merry Christmas to you and your family!
I can't believe how fast your subscribers are growing. Seems like last week you had just hit 100,000. Thanks for all the great videos & a Merry Christmas to you & your family.
On my farm were harvesting wheat and just finished with canola
Merry Christmas to you and your family and a happy new year! May your Christmas tree be big enough to get a challenger under it!👍
I'd sub again if I could! :) Good luck.
The old farmer had a good year so he bought a corvette cause he always wanted one. Took it up on the interstate to see what it would do. 70, 80, 90, 100. Suddenly blue lights behind him. He says screw it hammer down. 110, 120, 125 blue lights still behind him. Well better stop. Trooper comes up to window, sees he’s an old guy with a new car. Says I’m about to go off my shift. If you can give me an excuse I’ve never heard I will let you go. Old farmer says years ago my wife ran off with a trooper and I thought he was bringing her back! Trooper says Have a nice day and slow down.😂
Lol!!!
Ha ha, can i have permission to use this on my channel?
PIPER DOUG Be my guest. I heard it at an ag meeting!
Was he a Norwegian or a Swede?😁
@Thor The Northern The farmer.
Chillicothe OH
Currently pushing a space heater through the field to dry them out for bean harvest 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Keep pushing Brian!! Those new caps should help!
That's a good one there 😂. Let me know how that John Deere Space Heater works out drying beans. Hopefully nothing breaks so y'all don't have to break out the left handed metric adjustable wrenches. Merry Christmas to you and your Family Zach and a Happy New Year
Watch out for the empty meth needles
Grew up on farm in Southern Illinois. I am 57 now, and i am really enjoying watching you farming. God I miss the farm. Those John Deere equipment is just AWESOME!
The man, the myth, the legend back with another harvest video = great day.
Hi Zach. My name is Trae. I am 6 years old and I enjoy your videos. Keep up the hard work. I will continue watching. Thank you.
Perfect I have been feeling like there has been something missing in my life and now that you have found the missing footage my life is complete lol
Almost a Deere in every paddock!!
I have been a occasional viewer of your channel. I just watched your video of talking to kids on career day. You were honest and informative. Not enough farmers speak at schools about what they do. I appreciate you and admire you for taking time for youth. I'm now a subscriber, thanks again.
I don't know how many of your subs and viewers I speak for, but let it be said, you and your fellow farmers are appreciated. You all work . . . we get to eat, etc. That's the way it is. Thanks and Merry Christmas.
Grew up on a farm in north central Alberta. Spent close to 20 yrs there. That was 35 years ago. Enjoy watching your videos. Reminds me of good memories.
Keep up the good work.
All done for the year, crops are all hauled, now is time to catch up on family time, fix, plan, and attend winter meetings!
Well we are trying to get manure out and doing equipment repairs for next season.
As an end user ( consumer-non-farmer) my compliments on your dedication and spirit. You make smart look easy.
*Gosh you guys do a lot of work (over and over and over again), between all the stresses of trying to keep things in repair (especially when you don't know what it is that is wrong) and the significant amount of manual effort to do the finin', And then getting up out of needed sleep to check on things, i am flat out exhausted just watching! Phew!*
I loved the initial reason for these vids when they 1st started.. spent hours and hours watching and learning without realising even tho i live in centre of England in a concrete jungle.. but now zach gives just that and sooo much added sarcastic humour that clearly goes over lots of heads.. my favr in this is the "i like to use metric crescent wrenches when im working with hydraulics..that wasnt very tight as the ring had blown out.. lets go get this welded up .."😂😂
One of my fave youtube channels by far 😁👌
10:03 We are so lucky you found the footage. Could not live without that joke😆
Oh,,, one thing notice not said was.... were was the "lost" opps sorry misplaced SD card ?? Thank you for all you have done for us throughout the year. A very Merry Christmas to you and your family. May it bring you all, lots of smiles, lots of happiness and lots of laughter. Be safe always.
I'm from greece.Here in greece we usually dont plant corn but more wheat and sunflowers and cotton.We harvest wheat and sunflowers during summer and the cotton in octomber!
This channel reminds me of growing up in New Zealand. My MN wife was surprised we had a TV show down there dedicated to farming related news/lifestyle, and sheep dog trials. In my first teaching job, in a small rural town, I had a house next door to the small sheep farm - you never had to travel far to see farming. Congrat's on the format, it's nice to watch and see different types of jobs, your channel is really addictive.
A note about the auto steer that's probably the easiest part. But not many people know what it's like to try and fix something in a rush in the cold fingers like icicles. Trying to find a good ground on the arc welder and burn it in. I just have a massive amount of respect for family farms and farmers. As there's nothing EASY about it.
Glad you found the card for us who don't farm any more it's good thanks
We live in on Oklahoma and it’s great when we farm. Watching your videos really helps me
Harvest is done and now we sit and get things ready for spring. Merry Christmas!
Zack...loved your lost video. When you can't remove a spastic bearing from a shaft...smoke wrench it! Your metric crescent wrenches are good to fix stuff as well. I called them my 9/16 adjustable wrenches back when I was farming here in Eastern Montana....same difference! As always...thanks for your videos that allow us to see what you go through on a daily basis.
I wish we had these tractors back in the 60's I spent a lot of time on a super m farmal and eat a lot of dirt.
yep, im a 70/80/90's farmer, dont know how many 100's of hours I spent on a Farmal 560 with a 6 row cultivator, corn once, beans twice... every summer, plus walking them. We had a seed business so we had to keep the soybean fields super clean... I quit farming when I was about Zacs age here...
Finished 2 weeks ago. Feels good and now i can sleep at night. Had to run 200 acres of beans through the dryer. They were at 17.5%.
Still have around 250 acres of beans and and some corn left to do here in the eastern Panhandle of WVa. Mud and rain every other day it seems. Keep the videos coming there great.
we just finished up corn harvest here in south east Wisconsin on Monday. my uncle still has corn standing and with the weather we have coming in the next week I doubt he will get his corn off. we have old 30 series deeres and massey 850 and 860 combines. keep up the great videos
Yorkshire England. No harvest here my friend all sown up and sprayed up. On Christmas break. Then go back to the workshop and get everything sorted for next year.
We’re done harvesting and now looking at buying seed and fertilizer, and the wonderful winter maintenance. Merry Christmas and happy new year from SE MN.
We did beans first and had a lot of running around between fields because of the weather but we got all of it. December 12th we finished cuttin corn in Brule, Nova Scotia. There were a few fields that we had to go back to a second time. Because it was too wet to get the whole field the first time. for most of the 130 acres of beans we had a auger wagon hauling to a tandem dump truck and a semi tanker to haul out to a dryer and roaster. Then for 120 acres of corn we lost the dump truck for half of it, but found 2 gravity wagon bins instead to run through a auger to a waiting live bottom truck to take it to the dryer.
I farm about an hour north of the border in Manitoba, we’ve had harvest wrapped up for a while now. Been busy hauling grain and fertilizer!
I farm in Zambia. Central Africa. I’ve just finished planting corn ( Maize as we call it ) and soya beans. Very poor rains here as El Niño in effect. We irrigate from Zambezi river through centre pivots. That will come off in early April when we put in wheat.
About a year ago I was in our local Carquest getting some parts when A guy walked in and asked for a metric Crescent wrench🤣🤣🤣
Not so sure that's a true story...
You have to ask for the left handed hammer
Come on guys. We all know only "spanners" come in metric sizes.
Wouldn't have been the Millennial Farmer by any chance??
I saw somebody reviewed some Knipex pliers and almost wondered if he had thought about gettin some of them as they seem like they might work better for that type of thing, though their a bit pricey
Maybe it’s because I’ve never done any farming before but this is one of the coolest and most interesting channels to me. Looking forward to more.
I’m a farmer in Florida and we grow potatoes for lays potato chips. And we will be planting in a couple weeks! And I have a RUclips channel where I upload videos of what we do on the farm
First full day of winter, and we get a harvest video. Getting a bit brighter everyday till Summer Solstice. Merry Christmas to all.
Wonderful video! Great work and well done! Many thanks for making this video! Have a good one!
Marry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄🎅🎅🎅☃️☃️☃️❄️❄️❄️❄️⛄⛄⛄⛄🤶🤶🤶🤶
Zack, you have a wicked sence of humor.
Enjoy watching your videos,growing up in Southern Iowa on the Farm,and now in Alaska makes me miss the Farm again, luckily I do get to help a Farmer locally who has enough ground and clearing more,so it helps me from missing Iowa,hope your Christmas is awesome, and Happy New Year
We're getting plenty of rain and our grass and hay is growing nicely that's what's hopping ing hear
I have bought many adjustable metric wrenches in my life time. I had a nice 15" and lost it. Before I replaced it, I found another on the county road to replace it. 50 years ago I found a left handed one that never seems to get lost.
Glad you found this video. MERRY CHRISTMAS!
We are in upper state n.y. and I am to old to still farm, but there are still farms around me that have not harvested their beans or corn yet. Weather has been bad all fall and was a very wet spring in 2018. Thanks for the video's.
Great metric adjustable wrenches, I enjoy your videos
If you're willing to add someone new to your playlist, you may enjoy my farming content as well!
Gallegos Farms Harvest done since november. 4000+ Acres, 100+beers, 40 workers,20 harvester, 22 trucks,16 grain carts, 5 rippers, and 1 hell of a good time.
My brother and I finished the last 100 acres of corn on Dec 11th here in central Ohio. Corn and beans still need to be harvested around here. Wet!
Always like finding lost footage ots like Christmas came early.!!
Here in Southeast Missouri nobody's harvesting. They've got all the crops out of the fields. Right now it's really just no till planting or winter tillage before the ground freezes over. We still don't have any snow yet either. I get the enjoyment of taking care of horses and cows all winter. It does have its perks though. Like being able to put round bales of hay out in the field or hauling it all back to the farm.
Fall tillage is the best, so relaxing.
Well you have people that doesn't no how good it to Farm I love it thanks
You know you are a hard worker! All the stuff you fix around the farm! Your buddies just giving you sh@! Lol
North Central Indiana, had 90 acres of beans sit for about four weeks after everything else was done. Finally got them out on Dec. 11th, still muddy and had to dry them.
Still got a few beans in the field, looks like we will be able to run Christmas Day and Wednesday before rain moves in again!!!
We just finally finished harvest last Monday! Central Nebraska has had wonderful harvest weather
I still don't get used to how big farm yards are over here, dang some are more than 10 acres. cheers to you n yours.
If you're still interested, we haven't done any tillage yet and are going to try and go on Christmas!! #merrytillage
I'm interested, but divorces are expensive (so I'm told)....
Hi I'm from South Africa.we are just beef farmers love watching your videos awesome content.
So right now in modesto CA we are pruning our almond trees and right after Christmas the 26th is supposed to be a clear night and probably get some dormant spray on some peaches and we’ll see how our winter goes from here
Forage producer in South Carolina. Although we are currently mud farmers the rain just will not let up this year.
Crazy how in 2 months you’ve gained almost 100,000 subs. Goes to show how hard you work. Glad to be a subscriber!
Merry Christmas Millennial Farmer. Been worst harvest here in Ohio in my 48 years! W'ere down to approx 350 acres of corn. I've had the screens out of the combine twice now to clean out MUD!. I hear some guys are taking out their lower screen to finish up. WE NEED A FREEZE!
Greetings Zack from Romania. I own a small farm of 35 hectares and still have 5 or 6 of them to plow. Currently i'm waiting the weather to change because it's muddy out there and there is a lot of wheel slip , but in a few days time i'll think we'll get that done.
A neighbor still has a 1,000 acres of beans left here in Mississippi. Elevator won’t take anything over 13.5 moisture and w all this rain lately it’s staying around 20. Definitely a rough year!
Hi Zach, wish you and your Family a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year. Greets from Bavaria/Germany
Got done with corn a week and a half ago here in southern Indiana. Been hauling grain to the elevator ever since. Keep up the good videos, I watched a lot of you're videos this fall while I was waiting in the combine or truck. Haha
Another great video Zach, glad you found it!
thanks so much for your great content. we run a pretty small family farm on PEI canada. about 100 acres of grain a year mostly oats. we managed to get off all of our oats this year but lost nearly all of our straw to the rain that started in september and never stopped. which hurt because much of our small operations income is from my straw sales.
Wow, an extra harvest video for an early Christmas present. Thanks, Zach.
Down in Australia , we are currently half way through the growing stage, irrigating, spraying, fertilising
Lots of beans still in the field in southern Tennessee and north Alabama still. Must still be too wet for some of them. Rained another inch this week. I think all the corn is up. Cotton should have been done a month ago, but I am going south later today and will see if they finished it up also. Heard all the gins are really backed up.
This “Lost Harvest Video” Is like receiving an early Christmas present! Thank you for sharing your life on the farm with all of us. Also I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Same to you!
Southeast KS. I think all of the crops are out. A lot of the wheat was planted in late November or early December. Normally it is planted after soybeans in mid October but soybean harvest was late due to the weather. My wheat at home was planted late November and has not come up yet. There is a few wheat fields that are green in the area.
Here in NC, we plant early to late group soybeans. We're through right now, about for everyone because it's almost too late to get our beans out before it starts frosting.
Watching it snow and repainting my 895 and so forth for the old RUclips channel Haha
The old man should've replied to the police officer, about the missing wife: "Thank God, I thought she'd never leave" ;)
Merry Christmas from East Tennessee! We lease some of our farm ground and still have beans in the field as do many others and I even spotted some standing corn yesterday...all due to a very wet fall.
You and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy, prosperous, New Year.
Same to you!
Novemeber corn fields in Maryland while not as brutal as MN were rough when you had an open station 4440 and a 215 disk or an old Ferguson chisel plow. Man I wished I was my dad in the combine cab then.
Zack ,I liked the part about the auto steer, for people who have never farmed it is hard to know what all has to happen to make a crop. I have NOT farmed since the early 70's, so I like you shows to see the new stuff. Keep them coming, PS I started plowing on a John Deere GP Grandpaw had to spin the fly wheel to start it, pulling 2 -16's. High road gear was about 6 mph.
Zach...
Hey happy to b here seeing others hit the fields .. wish I could drive that machinery that you drive hehe ... I was born a farmer and will stick to that , we’re trying to plow but it’s raining at least 1-2 times a week so we’re not getting done much .. Merry Christmas to y’all enjoy at its fullest . Blessings on you and your family
Dargaville, New Zealand
I grow Kumaras (sweet potato) down here, we are currently in the "hurry up and wait for them to grow" stage. harvesting is about a month off.
Im enjoying your videos
Hey you found your SD card! Love your videos. Thank you for posting.
Here in North Norfolk in the UK done muck spreading for next year's sugar beet crop still got sugar beet to harvest and winter ploughing to finish for spring barley and sugar beet.
Zack; you're cleaning that floor the hard way. There is a much easier way of doing it.
First: attach a chain or rope onto the end of the sweep auger, so it can be held back, while it's still running.
Second: As soon as that bin is empty enough where the sweep kicks in; walk behind it with a shovel n broom and pick up that product as it goes along. You can use that chain or rope to keep it from running away on you. Clean at whatever speed you like.
3: To keep it from running away on you, make something so you can attach the other end of the rope or chain to the side of the bin. Use the bolts located all over the place.
It will turn into a one man job. And very little sweat.
Yep, that's the way we've always done it.
Farming is HARD WORK...PERIOD!
Biggest and best farming channel on RUclips !! Happy Xmas to you all at MN and those that follow 👍
If you're willing to add someone new to your playlist, you may enjoy my farming content as well!
I remember you saying you lost the SD card.. Glad you found it and I got to watch it
Southern Illinois, crops still in the field and wet as hell. No tillage done. The sun did shine today though!
Not a farmer but enjoying your video from sunny South Africa, hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Central New York and we still have standing corn everywhere you go, it's been either rain or snow for almost 3 months straight now, very frustrating.
In Norfolk in the UK we are almost shut for Christmas doing some cultivation and suggar best lifting 👍👍
Corn has been done since Thanksgiving. But the damn beans just wont dry. Still over 20% with heavy rain and snow at times. We very well could be combining on Christmas. Central Virginia
We've been done since the second week of Nov. Most of the chisel plowing is done and fall dry fertilizer has been applied and chiseled or VT'd down. Southern Indiana
Great videos its good to see what goes on around the other side of the world. I am just finishing planting potatoes
Man I'm glad to see you use a metric Crescent wrench on that metric fitting. If you had use a standard Crescent wrench it would have rounded off the fitting threads.
Yes! It's a cookie sandwich. You didn't say what kind of sandwich.
God bless.
12/22/18 - still some corn in the fields here south of Omaha NE. Mainly the "one man band" farmers. Was just way to wet of a year! Love your videos!
Thanks as always for the great and educational videos. Hope you and the family have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas to you and all of your family thanks for all the videos I hope you get to 200 thousand before the end of the year have a happy new year
