It's a beautiful day to go and harass Randy the Master Pipe layer. In agriculture, tile drainage is a type of drainage system that removes excess water from soil below its surface. Whereas irrigation is the practice of providing additional water to soil when it is naturally too dry, drainage reduces the moisture in soil and thereby increases the amount of air in its pores so as to augment conditions for optimal growth of crops. While surface water can be drained by pumping, open ditches, or both, tile drainage is often the most prudent practice for draining subsurface water.
Here are five myths about farm tiling:
1. Tiling is totally unregulated
2. Tiling speeds water movement off the land
3. Tiling contributes to water quality problems
4. Tiling is not a conservation practice
5. Tiling is bad for soil health

ok
You must be proud that your son started laying pipe so young!!
I have simpisafe at my house and i love it
Outstanding. Farm kids get to do stuff that city kids are not even aware exists. When your kids grow up they are going to be great people. Just like their parents.
The interplay between Zach and Randy is hilarious. You should probably have your own show on Hulu.
It would be impossible (and stupid) not to observe your preparation of the next generation, Onyx, to join you, just as you joined your father, in the life of professional farmer. Your "little boy" is suddenly a junior partner in the business. Congratulations for bringing him in (with your wife's acceptance) as well as encouraging him in your "escape" racing. Just as generations before: you are returning to the land... your son is joining you in that desire/mission. You deserve everyone's admiration..... as well as appreciation for feeding us.
Randy is being a great teacher for Onyx!!
Hey zack….. I was just thinking……if the tile plow ever take over the world…..their probably will not be any more flooding across the world , that’s got to be a plus hey zack lol.
Some one give me a sponsor ship for visiting America please 🙏 please
Express for me to Randy a big thank you for his service to his community,
Goggled earth the fire site to see how far the lake was impressive fire departments. Way to go guys.
YAYYYYYYY. DJ is coming on Off The Husk!!! One of the funniest podcasts out there. Sue Makes a Mean Hot Dish still makes me laugh everytime!
I replayed that at least 10 times 🤣
Can't wait.
Still wish we get the were too drunk episodes lol
@@kluckfabrication5991 I would definitely love to hear the "too trashed" podcasts!!!
That and chet and Nicole's are my favorites 😂
Seeing Onyx there brings back memories of my childhood except now I see why he had me do those things and I’m thankful for it
Me too, my dad had me doing, what I thought at the time were ridiculous tasks, now I know they were not. We all need good men to show us what life is going to be like.
I had it explained to me once that if you dip a butter knife into a glass of water, when you take it out, the excess water will drain off of the knife but there is still water on the knife. That's all the water that the knife can hold. Soil is the same way in how much water it can hold. The rest just drains away.
Until it is waterlogged, then it sits on top of the soil having already destroyed the soil structure to some degree.
Depends on what is under the topsoil, too.
Clay doesn't drain.
I’m from the Uk but I love watching American farming it’s brill
Yea they do seem to have bigger toys than us!
The black Minnesota soil looks amazing
@@Ada-zn3pw You can find black soil throughout most of Minnesota and Wisconsin.
@@Ada-zn3pw my friend says it tastes good too
don’t ask just don’t
Me too! It's so satisfying and interesting. I'm in the UK too and mostly bedbound so watching people work makes me feel a bit like I'm at work again.... I miss it terribly...
Watching tile go in is a thing of beauty. It allows the roots to go deep.
I remember seeing that fire on the news. It’s amazing what those small town fire departments can do being a bunch of volunteers
Can you post some links please? I hadn't heard about that...
Speaking of Moline, I come from a small village in Norway that are kalled Ferkingstad. But since a lot of people from my village moved to Moline, some of them came back after working for some years. When they came back they were called "Moliner" and as the years went by "Moliner" became a common call-name for someone from my village 😊
How sad is it that I thought about the door handle incident as soon as I saw the tile plow.... LOL
was looking for a Larson notification but a millennial farmer one is even better.
Most of our farm is already tiled with clay tile. Back in the 50's and 60's, my wife's great uncle bought a Buckeye and did a LOT of the tiling in northern Michigan when the government was cost sharing on tile. His son still has the machine. It still runs and operates as it should. It's not really as cost and time effective as the plows. I helped him tile a 40 about 8-9 years ago. It was pretty cool. The only issue we have now is blowouts. The ground washes out underneath it in one little spot and it starts washing soil down the tile line and forms a pretty good sized hole in the ground. We dig the tile up and replace the sections with black plastic and pray that we did a good job when we cover it back over. Right now we've got a bunch of blowouts and we're struggling to find a backhoe to use. We're looking into buying one instead of borrowing. Good job on the videos. You do a good job of showing and explaining all different aspects of the ag industry that most people would never get a chance to see and/or understand. Keep up the good work!
Good flower pot analogy!
I love the foreign objects on the door handle reference😂😂. I would just replace the whole plow if I found out those were on my door handle😂
Makes you appreciate all the old timers who used to do all the ditching by hand
Ballsac swinging on the pipelayer! Hahaha 🤣
Zack, your son is a very observant young man and has considerable natural mechanical abilities and common sense, something not so common in todays world.....I do enjoy watching him operate equipment, working on something and his intent mental commitment when someone is showing him a new element of a overall job application...This comes about when encouraged and nurtured...Well done, Dad !!
That boy looks just like his Mama lol. And I mean that as a compliment!
Thanks for another great video. It was most interesting seeing how the pipe laying machinery works and how they plan out the fingers of pipe to drain the water. Most interesting. Randy’s machine is a big beast for sure. Have seen the finished product before but never the process of laying it out. Thanks for that. That fire you showed in I believe you said Clinton was a big one. Lots of damage there. Can see why it was a real hot fire being all wood. Wow.
Onyx got some good work on connecting the pipes together. Good experience for him. Way to go Onyx. Good to learn other people’s work process. Good young man. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks. The Iowa farm boy from years ago.
Your dogs are awesome. We have a security system. Two labs that bark at anpin drop. That soil on your farm is beautiful. We live in central PA. Beautifal area with lots of beautiful farms. But our soil is hard clay. When our house was built the developer stripped the good top soil and sold it. Ittookyearsto buildup our soil again to get things to grow. I hope you guys soon get a few good days of a nice slow steady ground soaking rain. Not flooding. Here we have had a good amount of rain this summer. Other parts of Pa. Not so much. I hope you guys can recover from the drought. God bless your family.
Dang with the posts! Absolutely loving the racing vids especially Onyx
We love our dirt track racing here in PA. We havetwotracs in our area. Used to be a third but sadly they shut down. We went racing Fri Sat, and Sunday. My hearing would stop ringing by Thurs. Only to be blasted again. Wecwereat a racetrack called Grandview and huge chunk of dirt with a huge five inch rock in it some how came thru the fence and nailed my right ankle. I though I got shot. The pain w a s awful. Itimmediately swelled up and bled like mad. My hubby was so into the race I couldn't get him to help me down the bleachers to get help. Thank goodness some stranger seen ,e and helped me down and called the medical crew. They thought I got shot to. There was a hole in the bone of my ankle. It took part of the bone away. It was ugly. H a d to get stitches. It healed but I never sat in the turns again at any dirt track. We aree going racing this weeken I can't wait. Be safe racing.
That tile machine is amazing,Randy must love his job.
The way randy was waving in the tile plow 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you to all of the firemen on the scene of that fire. I am sorry the business lost its building, but I am very happy that no lives were lost. It was a great video. Always enjoy learning new things.
I'm surprised tile even works as low as the perk rate is in that dense soil. Glad it works .
"And this is the bar!" Great ending to a great video!
Randy, the Master Pipelayer: "I for one welcome our new tileplow overlords!"
Poor Randy and his door handle 😂
Shoulda been "Onyx lays his first piece of pipe" Proud papa.
This was great!! LOTS of information and learning in this one. You guys explained things pretty darn well. I love learning. MOST impressed with Onyx!! (AGAIN) He is one super guy!! Ya done good Zack. He is a credit to YOU, BECKY, and a wonderful asset to the world. I am banking on him, and kids like him, to save our BUTTS from the mess this world is in right now. Great to see him have the courage to do something new like this. Keep it up Onyx!! I got your sixd!!
I've been waiting for this video since the beginning of the grow season
The tile plow joystick is a Danfoss/Sanderson Solo control..... I was on the original design and development crew for them back in 1995.
Onyx forgot to make Tim Allen grunt noises after using the reciporcating eletric saw, "Hu hu hu!"
Cool stuff!! Great memories with your son. Miss the live feeds you guys have done.
i think you should have added the FOREST GUMP gif waving to LT Dan at .51 of the video.
Thank God for Volunteer Fire Fighters!
Make sure you tell Randy I accidentally called him the master pile layer.
Always educational when Randy is on the channel
Randy is seriously underrated. So low key but such a depth of knowledge.
I love how he gives all that that info in the description
Your the best Zach. Sry to hear about your crop
My goodness, no wonder you guys can farm so effectively, the dirt is so rich and deep. I’ve never seen anything like it. Congratulations
They do go deep out there! Just ask Zach!
Dad joke of the year: “Hey look at that! There’s a restroom right over there!” *points at corn field
Wait a minute! I thought Onyx was a grain cart driver last harvest. Didn't you pay him?? lol
It's called on the job training....food and roof over head
Best I can tell I saw him driving around a pretty sick race cart that's probably pay enough!!! Lol
Lol farm kids don't get paid 😂
@@Studio23Media lol
Pay as a farm boy is very different than a non-farm boy's pay. He's got all kinds of cool stuff to enjoy...oh and 3 hots and a cot! LOL
Awesome video again but I am really getting into the racing videos on your second channel. You have raised my interest in Agriculture, racing and a different view on family. Not everyone has had such a supporting family unit and it’s refreshing and inspiring to see your lifestyle. Thanks
In 1986 I went to work for a guy in Jefferson Iowa. His grandfather tiled an 180 field by hand when he bought it. Some of that tile was about 20' deep to make it drain. His grandfather walked out here from Ohio with his shoes on his back. He didn't want to wear them out. They were a lot tougher than we are today. I am guessing that machine can tile more in an few hours than he could all summer long. That is a very cool machine. Just another example of how farmers use science and technology that I am sure most city people on the coast have no idea about.
Great Millennial Farmer Video, thanks for sharing
Love the shades !!
Gotta love his fleet of 90s Chevys! Just MINTTT!
Good job and explanation of what is what, great family and family man, take care be safe ! ( from Canada )
Amazing how fast Onyx is growing up
Thank you Zack and Randy that is the answer I was looking for when I commented on your tiling
Hi Todk.
Love the notes written on the palm of your hand 😂
Great video again! Love the content!! 🙏😍
Very interesting video. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing save by the people who kept that fire from spreading. You and Randy serve your communities well.
Good to see Randy the Master pipe layer in full action 👍
Man you can't mess with someone checking the air pressure in the tracks. Dangerous work!
Some one give me a sponsor ship for visiting America please 🙏 please
When Onxy grabbed that sawzall. I thought, kids learn and do care!
May seem stupid to you all but l had tears in my eyes watching Onyx cutting that tube without the normal 6 months training that any other kid would need today.
I love the ending
He is indeed, The Master Pipe layer!
I wish we had nice, rich soil like that in Maryland. Ours is sand, clay, and old bay.
Omg so true
25% clay 49% old bay 25% sand and 1% dirt
I'm lucky if I have a foot of soil rest is good old upstate NY red clay and large rocks
Absolutely love your videos Sir thank you for sharing these wonderful videos with us
Good to see you boys got some rain today, pack the test weight on!!
It's an awesome tradition to have boys work alongside men. I wish more young men had the experience.
Loved the video! Big shout out to my hometowns response to what could’ve ended worse! But what did that bar used to be called? Hmmm
Great to see the next generation working.
Spitting the farm game
Good Peter giggle
Onyx would make any parent proud. What a wonderful young man. Hope for our future.
Am I the only one that sees the truck nuts swinging from the tile plow? ,😂
Great to see a young guy hanging out with and learning from men. This is how it is supposed to be. Wow, that fire sounds serious, glad they were able to get it out without too much loss.
My feelings says that Onyx is gonna be a good farmer! He will learn much from you and other farmers ☺️
👍Keep up the good work, Onyx! - Nothing beats hands-on experience!👍
Good job, Zach & Bec - fine kids you got there - all prayers & blessings to you Johnson’s!
👍🙏🏻😃🇺🇸🌽
That one worker of Randy’s there. 🤔 his girlfriend’s gonna be really mad when he brings her Kaki shorts back! 🤣🖖🏼🇺🇸
I believe her name is Daisy.
Duke? I hope she left her Cousins home those Boys are trouble 🤣 they'll be trying to jump the Combine! 🥺
Onyx exudes cool.
His name is not one I had heard before I started watching you, but it is great and it suits him perfectly.
I really like his clothes too. All UnderArmor stuff.
He is a very lucky lad to have the childhood he is having. You must be so proud of him.
The work that goes into tiling is much more involved than I assumed it would be. It must be a huge outlay to get it done.
Get that kid some workboots
The Truck Nutz hanging off the back of the trench digger! I died laughing!
Nice piece on the tile. I'm in Australia and can't find our farmers shouting themselves out.
The last sentence of the video had me cracking up lol
Enjoy your videos with Randy.
I always loved the old Minnie Moline's. We never had any on our farm, but a neighboring farmer who had a field across from our main farm, had a Moline, and when I was probably just 3 or 4 yrs old, and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. I've always wanted to buy one to put a moldboard plow on to take to Rantoul.
I was actually curious (backstory as someone that’s 6’9 and 6’11 in Boots and 315 which is a healthy weight for my height doctor said it himself at 19 I rarely actually go and look at merch to see if it’s by a rare chance have them in talls.) So I actually went to look at the merch cause the one the legend Zach had on in this video was a awesome mf design. I was kinda disappointed to find out they don’t have them in talls. I hoped they would cause zachs taller then the average person. I swear I’m trying to have other clothes then just carharrt everything in my closet. (They make amazing big and tall clothes. EVEN BUTTON DOWNS ((which is very very rare to find)) on a lighter note least the videos and podcasts don’t let me down. I still wonder how big a elephant penis actually is............
I actually wouldn't mind some Tall merch. I'll see what we can do.
@@MillennialFarmer mention it in a video if/when you do!
I vote for tall shirts too. Only 6ft3 but long torso and ordered 2 shirts. They were too short after 2 washes. Would like to order more but not without any tshirts in a tall. I need a 3XLT. Thank you.
@@mrbunny8050 yup and my torso is also where most of my height is at. My legs are a bit longer then average tho. My pants are 44x36 if I remember the last number right
Some one give me a sponsor ship for visiting America please 🙏 please
Least you and Randy had onyx to dd for you after the beer joint lol
Wow as being in fire service for 44 years, that had to be one super hot fire. They did a great job keeping grain bens cool. Love watching drain tile being laid.
Thanks Randy for your fire service. And all the fire fighters that help save as much as possible
I seen this and immediately thought of “Heart Break Ridge” with Eastwood n the Marines wearing those but huggers! Omg what is going on with style
He's from South Africa. Great guy!
It’s cause lose shorts can have a snake slip through haha.
I wear lose shorts. Not enough room in them for me.
Love it, you know the important part of the day! LOL
Tile plow taking over is more Maximum Overdrive than Terminator 👽😎
Have you ever flowered your water pot?😂
Congratulations on 800k subscribers 😄😄🇬🇧🇬🇧
930k now, 70k more to go.
Anyone else laugh out loud when they saw the Truck Nutz on the tiling machine?
I searched that fire on the net and found some amazing shots of the fire. Looks like flames reached 170 feet.
That's nice you have on there sir
