I`ve been enlightened here. Good senses of humor. Spent one summer involuntarily on a dairy farm . Best experience besides USMC, or Airplane Pilot .

Since you are a pilot I am wondering what you think of the planes that require a computer to stay in the air like the new planes the USA and other nations are buying now. I really wonder about them after learning about that ship the USA had that was buzzed by a Russian plane that has a device that turned all the computers and electrical things off causing the ship to be drifting for four hours before they managed to get it to the point of being able to just make it back to port. You know a plane can not just drift around with no engines nothing working and you can't get out of the seat and move around and fix the problems. I think if a plane needs a computer to stay in the air it is sure not a good idea to have it as a war time plane. What are you thoughts Greg Milner
Pat Clinch p
These are the young folks inheriting the US farming industry. Glad we have them. Two really smart guys.
Major tv networks pay attention... THIS is entertainment!
TV would screw it up trying to Hollywood it up. This entertainment is the future other than movies.
Well butter my biscuits... 32 glorious minutes of THE Millennial Farmer!?
I thought the same thing.. A long video!
Butter on biscuits? You must be an american 😄😄
Well all of you are right
@@milosimon2874 I am from Holland
@@Leofred2000 and a Texan by the Grace of God!
That cover crop discussion was really super!!Hope more farmers start to use them.They can be a real benefit.Great fun video!
As a real John Deere fan here from Holland, I really enjoy all of your videos. I own 5 John Deere’s and help farmers around me, but damn it must be really great to farm at a place like you. If you ever need help I’m happy to help.
Greetings from Holland
I don't know squat about farming but feel better after watching. The wheels on the bus go round and round.
One thing I learned about glyphosate: RUN LESS WATER!!! Have had consistently great luck with 3-4 gallons of water per acre running ANY rate of glyphosate. And always run 6 pound product! Hope this helps!
I was very interested to see the 7 acre no-till and the big field that was too wet to plant. Thank you for the update on those...
Really enjoy your RUclips chanel,landscaper in Arizona, born and raised in Tennessee, thanks for the fresh air
Do sumpn different: turn that with a plow to let it dry and freeze out; then in spring, disk and drag it smooth and plant.
Mitchell is right, if you do go with a cover crop, lower seed rates are where it’s at. If you go with winter wheat (like we do, and we don’t have winters in Texas) spray it to burn it down in the spring, can’t run a ground rig? Call in a air strike. But we drill ours in with skips where the cotton rows will be. We put wheat seed out a couple of years with a broadcaster in the fall, and the residual from Prowl and Treflan in the rows we had a perfect strip for the cotton.
That 7 acres would make a great onyx project his first field.
mike a his first race track
Thoroughly enjoyed the comparison and discussion on the different farms. Impressed how the two of you played off each other and how you both solved problems in different/similar ways. Thanks again....
I run one spiked closing wheel and one smooth oem one behind a row it works great in the fields we strip till but in conventional tillage in borderline wet fields the corn root balls plug up the spiked closing wheel and then it act as 2 smooth wheels
Very good to see you two talk farming! The knowledge you share, the experiences, and your mutual love of profession are sooooo appreciated!
Most highest in indiana that I remember was 22-24% for the farmer I was working for but we shut down. It was command to have 12 to 18% during a normal harvest
Literally the life I want to be in. Have tried for years to weasel my way into a farming career (equipment operator, etc) to no avail lol. Enjoy your videos and always want more. Great job!
A sea of green 😍🤤
It's like heaven
If you like to spend a fortune on parts hell yeah!
Isla got so big since we all gathered here for the first time a few years ago to watch a weird guy plowing his frozen fields. I still remember that day she fell off the tractor. poor girl... bless her :-)
In missouri we planted into rye that was to the hood of the tractor but it was dead and got a beautiful stand of corn
that sound guy is a machine! impressive muscle memory.sharp reflexes.
There is a local farm here that I wish would get involved with youtube and fbn. It's a pretty neat farm. They raise hogs, produce their own power and hire young kids just starting out(15/16) to detasle corn in the summer. They have been around since 1918 and have about 3,000 acres. Its called Dull Homestead Inc. But I think some of the things they are doing are pretty awsome.
What a fun day I bet lots of farm talk can’t wait to see what you do with that piece of land
The moment your realize its a bit boring on youtube and mn milinial farmer uploading some new vid and your a bit more happy haha
Ain't that the truth!!
You are so right!
Harvest is getting closer, then it will get FUN!!
Truth was trying to find something watch on TV.
I have a planter that USED to be Green. Back when my Grandpa pulled it with a team of horses.
It still works good for small food plots for the deer.
When I ran the planter at first I had problems accidentally turning the vacuum fans off. Finally I put my right hand fan on #4 and #1 ran my left hand fan. Also I put Velcro on #1. The Velcro stopped the SAFTEY COVER from opening and my finger accidentally touching it and turning that fan off
We swapped our press wheels to the solid steel. It solved the problems of the rubber one not coming apart so we could put the bearings in.
Im not sure if you have seen it or not, but you have a U bolt broken. If you look at 6:50 above Mitchell's head you will see it.
Good eye!
Great eye! at 6:16 you can really see it in the upper right
Good eye! We have troubles with those ones on those 'stub bars' we had to add on when we went to 30" spacings. The rocks break them constantly
My dad ordered a johndeere 850 bushel tank and a bourgualt 3320 drill!
Nick Swardsons twin is funny as hell.
was watching one of the older videos you asked for rock picker and looked for a Skid Steer Attachment " $1400 Mini Skid Steer EZ Backhoe Attachment Stiff Arm " if you can swap out the forks quick. Inexpensive idea
I like your videos you explain everything very fairly for people to understand it thank you for sharing them I love it when I see your family with you when you're in your tractors and yes John Deere tractors are the best
I think oats and radishes would be a good option for a cover crop we do a lot of that here in Michigan and it winter kills
I never knew of a farmer to have lunch. Every farmer/ country person I know has breakfast, dinner, and supper. MN thing maybe?
We planted winter wheat as a cover crop before corn this year and it worked great
What an interesting conversation guys! This is real farm talk here boys! Thanks for sharing this with us!
I heard of one farmer who roller crimps his rye fields once its lignified and plants into the rolled fields for his no till operation
Love the farmer talk "P, K, N". Only the few and proud understand it.
I'm now officially addicted... but I need help, which episode was the bowling ball cannon shot? Can't find it now and I MUST show my friends...
Our harvest is really catchy Zach, rain sun rain and shedding wheat,
Best part of harvest ,the smell of corn drying down !
I went to one spike closing wheel. It made a world of difference especially in harder conditions where your gauge wheel is really applying pressure.
Beans don't work well in grass sod for some reason. I took the row cleaners off my planter this year, if you get the residue spread evenly and just make sure and plant on the deeper side to compensate i have found ya get more even emergence. Just need good down pressure. I have planted into headed out rye quite a bit, sometimes over the cab and its not an issue as long as its standing. Best to plant before spraying because after spraying it will lay down sometimes.
I love how I had a ad for a case combine before this
This is a good video to link or rehash if you have the files. Sorry to hear that the shed and the bin came down. Thanks for the tour.
That was a great video Zach. I learned a lot about farming I never knew before. Thanks man. BTW I caught you on CBS not long ago, Great peace.
Ken Bryant OLF didn’t like the weigh the reporter was leading/abusing Zach(farmers)
Still have no idea what he is talking about after about 4 months
🤣
If you can get in that field next year its gonna begood.. It has a realy good rest now.
Love your videos! My family enjoys watching your videos! My daughter gets super excited when she hears you talk! Keep up the good work!
Dancing again! You’re getting there... #dancingwiththestars
Find somebody that looks at you like Mitchell looks at John Deere equipment.
Hope you gave him a Midwest Machinery business card!
always over my head but slowly learning. . I do enjoy the video and the humor..
TYo winterize an outside trailer: cam lock the maxis (and of course drain the air tanks.... apply brake antifreeze before it gets parked). In spring, just back it onto a pad, drop the cam locks (with the trailer aired up). Starting your day laying in snow or mud beating on brake drums is an awful way to begin your day.
I should come till that field tomorrow
Молодцы дружная семья здоровье всем , и процветания вашей компании и семьи🙋👍🏾👌🙌🙏
hey onyx that was wonderful with you dit with that sledgehammer . keep it going . greetings from Belgium Europe
I noticed how fast the Iowa farm executive adapted to green.... that must due to operating real equipment....😀
We here in North Carolina have not had any luck planting Soybeans in grass sod. Someone told us that the grass dying puts off some kind of fugues that effects soybeans. We have planted corn in grass sod and have no problem. I will continue to watch and see how yours turns out. Thanks for all you do
Interesting
英語わからないから詳しく理解はしてないけど広大な農地と最先端の農業機械があるというのはわかっていてだいぶ前から見てます。これからも頑張ってください
Instead of killing it off, crip it, the rye, crimping will not kill it like a grass killer but it will die but last long enough to keep the cover while the soy is starting which keeps the weeds down, crimp just when flowering
It was nice to see you and Mitchell share a tender moment.
Zach you should plant a acre or 2 of sweetcorn for the kids and when its ready have the kids sell it in town and the money they make put into a college fund and they also get some practice at business decisions best thing in life for them.
I’m 17 and hope I have a daughter just like yours one day. Much love from Mississippi
Pinkyish t-shirt and a corn-sharped object 😮
Great video I really enjoy watching farm tours it is always into see how ever farm runs and how well equipment is maintained
What an adorable little girl.
hi forgot to say you may need to dig some holes in that last field to find the compaction i guess the the drainage guys would let you have one for a couple of hours
Haven't s CLUE what you're talking about..why am I so fascinated in this?! Lol
Love this channel!
Liked your video ..cover crop we use clover and we found it to be a very good cover crop ...an another four months we be on ground
I live a city and have 0 chance of ever farming in my life, yet am obsessed with farming videos... lol yyyy
Very nice equipment
TY for sharing
We have a 9870 just like that everything is the same except we put tracks on it and love it
One of the more interesting videos. It was very informative to listen to both of you bounce ways of doing things off each other. This is one of my favorite channels to view. Oh, the shenanigans are great too.
Your videos Zac just put a big smile on my face
Your are a legend millennial farmer I watch you everyday and you always make my day. Keep up the great work man.
I feel like by adding an inoculant on your soybean seed treatment would have definitely have helped your soybeans get off to a better start in the sod. In the past when we have planted soybeans into sod for the first time and without inoculant our fields looked very similar as yours and very little nodulation on the plants. Our agronomist recommended using an inoculant to help activate the rhizobium bacteria to help nodulate the soybeans. Since then we continue to use it on every acre. The product is called BioBoost+ made my Lallemand.
Informative video Zach. I’m glad that the sound guy settled down. Right at the beginning it looked like he was going to whap you in the head with the mic ( and for a split second it looked like you might actually whap him first). 😂😂😂
Lol
Was wondering if you would do a tour of the You Tube facility in San Bruno,Ca. and walk us through it sometime to see what is behind the scenes and how they work and do whatever they do. I have not yet seen anyone able to do that.
Because we are used to getting kicked by the weather, pests, banks, government, etc, most farmers have developed this type of humor: Mitchell "...hopefully the crop might be kinda worth something..." Zach "...somebody might want some of this crop..." to cope with the financial risks and real gamble that farming has become.
Yeah loosing that $18 billion a year in Chinese sales the last 3 years must be fun.
I'm not even sure what the lost sales to India are.
Douglas Campbell, another uneducated moron, China is still buying American grown soy beans through other countries.
Great video...Thanks!
Family time is always the best one looks nice 👍
You need an electrician to install another breaker and do some wiring for you so that each breaker powers half the lights. The other alternative is to install a bigger breaker, but that isn't always a good idea.
Love the videos! Your channel is my oasis when I’m missing being on the farm!
This is a green planter also what you would call a real planter
Nothing runs like a Deere!!!
That rented piece looks like you held a tractor pull in it. Maybe you should have Onyx put in his track out there? At least you'd get something for the rent. Seriously, as smart as you guys are it will soon look great I'm sure. Thanks for the information and fun. Liking now.
Family friend of ours runs all JD (the funny thing is he bought his now 10 year old son a Massey Ferguson 150), he harvests mainly peanuts/ethanol corn. He just replaced his 9650 and 9760 with a S790, and he usually harvests at around 11% in the corn.
I feel like I should point out that only his tractors and his combine and sprayer are John Deere, none of his implements are.
Great video, Zach! I can't wait for the arrival of your new secret J&M grain cart on tracks! :D
Nice video, I kept waiting for a joke about Mitchell coming to Minnesota sporting a pink striped shirt! LOL
It's salmon
Hello from Shawville Québec I just noticed that the man that owns all the green machines is driving a nice red truck and he’s given the guy that drives the orange machine a hard time LOL
I see your shirt at the lows state fair
Did you mean iowa state
Your right claas combines are the best big green combines...
Ronin009 he greeted him by saying its pretty big. Never greeted a man that way
All your machinery is so clean.
Nothing PLANTS like a DEERE !!!
You have a awesome farm
Just watched your interview on CBS. Good job.
Zach, maybe consider a plow day with some local tractor clubs, FBN etc? Get a sponsor, have a cookout and turn that dirt! Great video...
Nice mate kids are great 👍🚜
Kinda funny seeing that South Dakota book next to the badlands field
Why don't you till the field which was to wet already? Like plow it, than the wet underground comes up and can dry too. When dried seed a catch crop which will freeze to death. Then in winter time till it after some frost when the frost just got out of the ground so he machines can handle it but you don't leave that much of a compaction. This will leave a nice seedbed in the spring. We use this technique some time but don't know it this will work out in your circumstances.
We can't pull tillage equipment through wet soils, it's way too sticky. Our ground also freezes about 5 feet deep and when it thaws it's too sticky to even walk on for about a month
Thanks for the explanation!!
Damn, fairly long video; but it didn't seem that long........funny how that works. You are just an entertainin' son of a gun Zach!!!!!
Thanks for the humor
