I am a Polish farmer and I've been watching your videos for about 2 years. It's a great way of learning agriculture and English!!!! This year I'm going to Texas for 5 weeks to get as much information on farming as possible. Keep recording videos, they're just ideal!
Greetings from POLAND! :)
You are a riot, the dry sense of humor is hilarious.
Thanks for helping to feed America!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Oh mother Deere! Our seat in our 8360RT makes the same noise when you swivel it. I cooked for the mom that keeps our operation going. Thank you to the mothers that sacrifice your time to keep us stubborn farmers going.
I love the different angles you had of the planter!
Totally agree about planter on left side just doesn’t feel right!
Greg Moddison shouldn’t that be planter on the left doesn’t feel write
Thanx from the LEFT coast near the Krapitol of California
It is almost easier to rotate 3/4 of a lap to the right instead of turning to left :)

the neck is not ready for this turn
@@clearingbaffles was that supposed to be English?
Love the vids I’m a British farmer and I love the way you do it keep farming
I grew up on a farm in the late 60s. It is amazing as to how the science of farming has evolved. In my day we planted whatever seed we could get and prayed.
I too grew up in the late 1960's but the way we think of farming is much the same now. The margin of profit is much slimmer now. But I had a Soil Science degree. The main thing is the equipment and herbicides we have today was mostly a dream. I also studied digital electronics so now what I studied then is applied now. Hybrids now can produce 50% more. Then yields were up to 200 bu compared to today's 300 with less.
Loved the time lapse stuff in his video. Great camera angles on the planter. Love seeing how this stuff works up close.
Great post love the sound and fast speed!!! Yes Mothers Day should be everyday!!!
Farm moms are the glue for sure!!!
Love your videos, this one really stood out with the different angles you had on the planter and the timelapse was amazing. Keep up the great work!
Happy mothers day to the editor in chief!!!
LOVE all of the new camera angles and such a clear picture!
Yup 100% agree with you about planting on the left side
2:30. Yes exactly! Always work edges with the right side. Sprayer, planter....everything
I'm with you on the planting with the edge of the field being better on the right side.
Awesome video! Loved all the different camera angles! Looked really awesome! Good luck with the rest of the planting. Happy belated Mother's Day - Everett the human and Lachlan the farm pup
Good morning Zack. Glad you have dried out up there. Here in Northern Illinois its still a little too wet. Possibly could be some guys start field cultivating this afternoon just to dry the ground out some more. When you make a new video could you say when the day and date you are making it. Much appreciated
I am watching your videos about 1 year your videos are so cool
Fantastic video man! And you got some really nice shots of the planter in it. I apprecieate the time and effort you put into the videos.
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Great video! Glad to see you are back in action!
HI there Mill farmer MN, i am from ND just watch you live but to many ppl asking questions lol, i just watch a little, Hope you planting is going good and here is good too, take care and be safe....
Loved the time lapse of planting! very interesting to see the whole process
Did your mother never read you the mother goose book titled "Mother goose and the dragging cable"? It clearly teaches us to make sure we have our John Deere connectors properly secured before every spring planting. SHEESH!!!
I enjoy your planting videos. here in central Michigan it has been so wet and cold hardly anythings has happened in the fields yet. more rain today and 48 degrees. going to be a late spring.
All great stuff. Nice to see Beck there, we miss her in the videos! #forpetesakebeck
Lol must be nice to be able to plant. Nothing but cold wet weather here in Western New York. We have our barley in and some oats but a long way to go. Great video as always. Always a pleasure to watch them.
I always look forward to the little 'tag' at the end of the videos. Nice touch!
Love the new Intro to your channel! Glad the rain is holding off for a while
Awesome video! (As always)
I love your content. Hope you have a great year and super yield.!
So nice to your Dad in the Planter. You guy make the A -Team for farming. Very cool to see Mrs. Johnson. Going to watch Mr. And Mrs Bernard This Farm Wife Finish there Corn. What ever happen to Millennial Farmer Out?. Yeah mayber the beer surch is better.

Nice to see Ditch up & around again😎
I can't believe how big those fields are compared to what we have where I live!
Hooray we are able to get in to the fields were I live and start to cultivate and plant finally
How is ditch doing
you're exactly right. right is the best side not the left, that's why the controls are on the right side. excellent job with your videos!
I always sprayed the outside rounds going clockwise/left long before autosteer. Combine outside round counter clockwise/ right so you don't smack telephone poles with the auger when you forget to fold it in or on older combines where you leave it out.
Good to see you working with your dad.
Have the same feeling with the planter on the left side, whenever I have time to go out. That´s why I always take on the long sides of the field in one cycle with the planter to my right.
Cool video and thanks for sharing
Good vid. Liked the new intro. I wish we had a seed tender for cotton seed, we have one for wheat, our two main crops, instead of using bags, even if it was one of those that use the totes or whatever there called. We’ve had over 2 in. of rain last week so we figured it’d be a while till we could get in the field to put cotton in but we looked at it today and are planning on trying tomorrow on one field.
I love the timelaps! Put more of those in the videos!
Just what I was waiting for
I loved the music montage with different camera angles! Your channel keeps getting better!
Love seeing your dad in the tractor with you!
The editing is always getting better, Great job!
I agree I’m 13 and I plant wheat and soybeans with a 30 ft sunflower drill up here in Wisconsin and I hate everything to do with the left side
I'm going up to Montana from Louisiana to stay with some family friends this summer and take summer classes at the nearby university and help out on their cattle ranch. So it's not quite the same as what you do, but watching you gives me hope that I won't sound like a complete idiot when I get up there!
I feel the same way about running the left side next to the woods with my sprayer, feels wrong, can’t judge distance as well, go figure, our corn looks great, about chest high, half through with cotton and peanuts, good luck this year!
Hey Zack, Breakdowns always suck but that's the price of progress I reckon. You'll give 'em heck tomorrow (today). Take care Zack...thanks for sharing your day with us.
Good luck planting
Great video!
happy mother s day to your mother and you wife good forming
Congrats on the win Saturday
Thank Keith!
Great job!
Gotta love ur video in school
@Gavin Mix I am school
I’d bring you a beer! Another great video. I always look forward to seeing them when you post new ones.
Grew up in the Platte River Valley. Topsoil was 6 feet deep and had plenty of water 16 feet down. 80 to 100 bushel an acre was normal.
Nice video Mr MN
Yes it does feels funny driving tractor when sowing different to normal, just like feed hay out on hay cart. Although chaser bin I am use to unloading turn myself to left, maybe we drive on right side of in Australia LOL. What a bugger if not hoses damage it’s another bill.
Same as last year, I saw the rainbow of seeds you planted and it's the same this year! It's like you plant skittles or something! Exempt no purple seeds this year, that's funny
If you used powdered sugar instead of talcum powder would you be growing "Sweet Corn" . ????????
Finally, some tractor therapy tomorrow! I can't wait!
Happy mother's day to your wife and mother.
The field looks awfully dry behind you, you know the part that is light brown and ripples.
We used powdered graphite to lube the internals on our JD 7000 planter. But that was the mid-80s...
Just a shout out to Becky for all of the recent videos. We know you are doing a lot behind the scenes; and we cannot thank you enough!
Get-r-Done!
Wish I could ask my Grandfather what he thinks of today's farming compared to 70 yrs ago...heck even 30-40yrs ago when I would help for a few weeks.🌽🐄🐂
With all those monitors in the cab the only things missing are a fridge and a restroom, haha just kidding. I realize they are the tools that make your job easier. Like your videos by the way, you put forth great effort to make them.
You are number one in my list of favorite you tubers
We use to use dry graphite basically same thing! I believe TSC still carries a similar product? I think shorter day corn is gonna be very popular in the northern states this year!!!
How many test plots do you do every season? Do you do a lot of testing for the county or state? How do all the test plots help you when you harvest? With them is that what you use to determine what you plant next year? Sorry for all the questions. When I grew up on the farm we didn’t do any test plots or things like that. We just went out and planted. We kept everything we grew for our cattle for feed. We did sell some square bales to a local ski resort for there off time seeding. Love the channel and all of the information and knowledge you put out there. Keep up the good work and God Bless you and your family.
Congrats on getting that W on Saturday. Hopefully first of many for the year
Just a tip. When planting plots with a Deere CCS planter, there’s a 2-pin weather pack connector right off of the ccs fan, if you just unplug it, it will not power up the ccs fan when you lower the planter. You can fill the mini hoppers and no seed will be blown to the row units. Not that it takes forever to put the seed blocks on but it saves some time and effort. Great videos btw!
Could have used that an hour ago again, thanks!
Agree on the going around left side first! Is that how it’s done south of the equator? Great videos!👍
Hey Zach. So, now I get it..... planting corn is as simple as driving a race car..... Just drive in a circle and turn left.
😎. Captain Al from Tampa.
Another video, YAY!
Homework can wait time to watch new video 🚜
Really liked the time lapses in the middle to break up the differet parts of the video
250,000 subscribers... Two Hundred and FIFTY THOUSAND... holy moly !! Well done @MNMillennial,
Thank you! It's been crazy
Awesome video and editing, don't know where guys fit that in as well, good show
Ohhhh, look at that new fancy animated graphic intro. Keep up the awesome work!
Look at that high speed planter 😁
My local JD dealer is open Monday thru Saturday 7AM to 9 PM and Sunday 7 AM to 6 PM. My Case dealer is open Monday thru Friday 7 AM to 5:30 PM and Saturday from 7 AM to 12. Those hours are a big plus for JD.
Ricky Ivey Deere is usually better to their customers IMO. JD as a company has also made a big push in recent years/ decade to have better service.
Drew w in my area the service is about the same and I have both Case and Deere. I can get better deals on Case equipment and parts but I do like Deere planters and Deere tractors under a hundred HP and Deere sprayers. I Iove my magnum tractors and Case combines. But as I replace equipment I will be going all green because of parts being available 7 days a week and my Deere dealer is 15 minutes away and the Case dealers are just over a hour away.
Talken prouder is indeed great stuff when you want a rubber hose to move over a rod or same-thing in that line!
Great to see the corn going in
I saw your FBN commercial on Tractor Time With Tim👍
Love your Chanell and you vids keep it up
Sweet wide shot in the cab!
Definitely have to think more about planting clockwise off the left side, same goes for spraying. Always feel like I’m more likely to hit something with the boom going left side out
Never really thought about it. I just naturally go counter clockwise. Camera angles are great. Crazy wet here in the mid Atlantic ☹️
Thank god
Look like a go to get the crop planted in a hurry. We started planted 118 day corn the 13th of May. That is right on target for us. Tomorrow cotton will start going in the ground we have 700 acres but will take a while with just a 12 row XP JD. Usually we finish non irrigated corn or grain sorghum around June 18th You guys don't mess around with planting! My neighbor has over 10,000 ac. corn with two 12 row integral planters.
Here in France when we cut potatoes before planting we use too some talk powder ( or tolkem powder i don't know how it's writing in english )
I’m right there with ya on doing headlands on the right side. doing them on the left just doesn’t feel right lol
totally agree on left side planting. feels odd as hell.
At least your planting! We here in Indiana might be switching to rice farming.....
That's gota be a first. Planting pineapples with a corn seeder. Haha. Have a great week. Take care
The talcum I would have never guessed! At least when it gets hot you'll have something for chafing at your disposal!
In the even older John Deere fingerstyle planters, (#400?) actual graphite powder is used as a "seed lubricant"
Is it weird that... I like it on the left side?
Hey Zach like the opening and closing animations
Hope your dryer than us in the lone star state, we have corn about to tassle and still not completely side-dressed, way off year so far
Thanks for the video. I hope you're having a great day. Last 3 days rain here in Pennsylvania. Corn about 2 and 1/2 in tall need sun and more sun. The challenges of farming. Have a great day
