Love your videos. My dad use to work for a guy on his family’s farm. Worked there for 20 some years. I remember when I was a kid I’d use to ride in the combine/tractor with my dad or the owner. I’d also skip homework to do it lol. Once time I got to drive a grain cart full of corn in the field back to the truck to unload it. Once I went to put it in higher gear, the tractor died on me. Turns out it ran out of gas 🤣
Thank you so much for the free advertising for my little dutch company at 2.41 on the bin. "Transport" you might think behind it. Yeah, that"s very generous of you. Defenitely appriciate it. You"re a good man :) I owe you a nice tray of beer.
Hey Zack! You sure know how to multi-task. Loading trucks, fixing auger equipment, giving speeches to high schoolers...your talents are varied never-ending.You put in a full day and are still going strong. It'd be nice for your land to dry up so you could stick some seed in the ground. It'll come. Thanks for sharing your day with us Zack...take care.
Just doing what I can!
Mn millennium farmer I wait for my dad to come home to watch your video's and it always makes use smile so thank you for the hard work you do
That was quite the storm we had. I think we must have had about 8-10 inches of snow here. It sure was fun to try to move it. That was some wet snow. Sounds like warmer weather & a littl rain coming mid week. Hopefully winter is done & we can get going with spring planting. Thanks for the video.
I am always amazed at the machinery you guys own and maintain.
Me too
Hi my name is Anthony.I live in Australia.I love your videos keep up the gd work guys
I think you’ll love the row cleaners. We run only no-till and dad and I won’t have another planter without them. We’ve found our emergence is faster where we run the cleaners just barely skimming and let’s just that little area of the row to warm up better.
My grandfather was a farmer but not at your level. Thanks for doing what you do for us.
Fell asleep lastnight watching your videos. Not sure how many played when I was sleeping. Must start over
🤣🤣
i never thought green could look any better......or the sunrise either. selling grain and gettin ready for planting....YESSSSS! Glad to see you didnt get covered up in snow this past weekend and hopefully you wont anymore. No more snow....No more snow....
This was before the blizzard... stay tuned!!
We're just done seeding spring barley and planting sugar beets here in southern Sweden - now we pray this summer is not as dry as last year 😊
Where hoping for rain here but their doesn't look to be any rain anytime soon
How was the barley? Isnt it pretty risky to plant spring barley instead of winter barley? I mean 2018 was fairely dry in central europe...
Love your videos. Keep them coming. I work in commodity handling at an ethanol plant so i work with farmers and truck drivers all day. I love working in the agricultural industry
Thank you!
Thanks for all your time and effort making these amazing videos for us!!
I run into dead batteries quite a bit due to the cold weather. It is just a problem I have learned to planned for. Great content! Keep up the good work! You gained a subscriber this week.
Can’t wait to see those row cleaners in action. Went to a farm show last summer in Michigan where they were talking about them. Very cool concept.
That’s crazy how I’ve met Zack at races and met him in person,and been at his farm to get his racing trailer we bought,you are doing really great Zach! Keep up the good work! Proud of you
Next time if you want, spray with the ether directly to the air filter of the engine. I don't know if you tried that already but it works perfectly with my tractors and truck, usually when it's cold outside and most of the times I have them outside, cuz I don't have a garage or shed. Greetings from Greece !!
You should put shut off switches on your hot battery cable, I always had the same problem with our trucks, put them on an shut them off at night, never have any trouble any more
Wow, thats a hell of a planter!
“GO GO Juice”. Smoky and the bandit 👍
The slope of the hopper is a metaphor - FARMING CAN BE A SLIPPERY SLOPE! Stay safe.
“After I pull a few loads out I’ll make sure it’s goin down easy.” That’s what she said.
Somebodys gotta do it
I have some advice for you dead battery's. Park close to outlets so it's easier to hook up the charger. I worked for a farmer we had the same problem we tried different things like you have but that's the only thing that worked. Love the videos and thanks for feeding my family.
Those bins are always on the edge
Most farmers here in eastern Virginia have started planting corn. The weather just isn't cooperating with all the rain...
It might help to have shut off switches to disconnect from rest of vehicle so the radio or anything that might have a slow drain on them. Also some of the newer diesels with def have a heater in the def tank to keep the def from jelling up in cold weather. Looking at his older semis he doesn't use def so that's not the issue. The guy is right about the bad cell in the battery, maybe you need a better brand like interstate. Also there might be a short that is slowly draining the battery, cb or radio cause they have two power cables to run them, one for main power and one for memory.
Glad to see I'm not the only one with battery issues all the time with my machines
Thanks, Zach for a getting back to farming videos. I hope Y'all keep 'em coming steadily.
I know some guys that use those, but they don't have the air adjustment, they have to be set manually, but they do a good job
246 video clips expertly edited together to create a fast paced never boring documentary of a day with Zack.
Cool farm cat! Is he earning his keep? Hope you didn’t get buried in too much snow!
I work on a farm in Holland and last year was real dry and bad so we’re praying for this year
Nanne Notermans best of luck.....I’ll say a prayer for you too.
Batteries lose a net charge when they start an engine. It takes a good while of the engine running (fast enough to engage the alternator) to charge the batteries back up. Even longer if it's cold. Starting a car/truck to move it across the yard and turning it back off in less than a few minutes leads to dead batteries.
I think you will love those row cleaners. We have them and it's awesome, just raise them up in the cab if you get a little tacky spot.
Good video. Love all the green n yellow.
Love watching your videos while in the tractor man! Can’t wait to see how your planter does with them new toys going on them!
We farm out in Ontario and run almost 100% no-till farm and we love it. We run no-till on winter wheat and Soybeans and strip till for our corn. Love your vids can’t wait for planting
Gotta love Minnesota dead batteries cold snowy rainy weather and broken equipment ahh the dream job and I love the Outro
And I thought I was the only man doing exactly what I was born to do.
Got to love mother nature with a mid April snow dump, at least most of the snow storm split and went around us here in Rice Lake ,WI leaving only 5 inches of the pure white joy.
We put them on our old 24 kinze planter. Works great in trashy fields.
The military has problems with batteries too. They use a high current plug-in connector so they can 'jumper' any different vehicle batteries together. So rather than putting a battery charger/booster, you could just have a portable battery pack that you could bring to anything that didn't start.(you could build onto the back of one of your little all terrain quads) Then once running, the equipment would charge itself. It could be a way to save time. Also, it sounds like you may be getting voltage drops from poor terminal connections.
5:40 oh Zach you always make my day better 😂😂😂
You should do in one of your next videos showing how to fold and unfold the planter like the controls on the black box
Will do!
Hello new subscriber here heard about the channel from Arthur Chapman's channel love the pup I have one a few months older
*Zach, I made you a song:*
Ole McZachy had a farm, EIEIO
And on his farm he had dead batteries, EIEIO
With a no start here and a no start there
Here a charger there a charger
Everywhere there's anger
Ole McZachy had a farm, EIEIO
That's some excellent creativity sir
Omg lol
Ok
You could consider a jump box instead of the charger, if you don't want to wait an hour or so. I have a JNC660. I used it when i was hauling cars, on the recommendation of a good friend who had tried many different ones. I had mine with me one day when a guy whose w900 wouldn't start was stringing a long extension cord out to his truck. Mine hadn't been charged for a couple weeks but started his truck just fine. Mine is the plain one. No air compressor built in. Works great. Makes a really good parking brake in a pinch too! (Im a non paid endorser)
Good day, got alot done. I think those yetters will be bomb
I want to thank you for your explanation of row cleaners. I’ve heard of others trying them in the past but they’re better designed now and people are trying them again. It makes sense; sort of a final soil prep before the seed goes down. Now be very careful around that GMO dust! 🤣😂😆😅🧐
Anna is the cutest little dog
Don't let her fool you. She's buried people...
You are way too good in so many ways, to be a farmer
Being a farmer isn't an easy thing
HI Zack, I am amazed at the knowledge you have about farming and the equipment that you run. Looks like you got it under control and when something goes wrong does not take long for you to figure it out. Love of family and farming you've got it down pat. I no you are tired of snow but being from lower part of nc we don't have much or any at all. I always did like snow when we got it , but usually just a few inches. Down here if we get a heavy frost they close schools. Don't work too hard and be safe.
It looks swampy in Minnesota!,
Your nextdoor state north Dakota is beautiful today!!!
I'm from south Dakota
I'm sure you know this and yetter told you about row cleaners... We have run them for years and learned quick not to set them deep. Just enough for them to scratch away the residue from the dirt. If you set it deeper water will run down through the little trench you just cut and wash out all your seed.
It will be an expensive lesson.
I don't know if it's been said or not, I know people have talked about battery tenders and starting them often with no luck. But maybe you should look into NOCO Genius Boost lithium jump starters, beats dragging out a long cord and hauling around a big charger and waiting for enough juice.
Cool looking and thanks for sharing
I really wish I could live on a farm
It would be a dream just to spend a day on a farm and doing work
I got some chicken coops that need cleanin' - when can you start?!
Lol
What state u in I'm in PA
I feel so bad watching these knowing i'm not doing anything to help the world, these vids are so entertaining but I just sit at home and can't even do anything to benefit society like you. Keep it up though, great stuff.
Lol, thank you? You're welcome? Sorry?!
@@MillennialFarmer haha sorry I'm not good at expressing my thoughts in one comment meant it more as a compliment to you having your life figured out haha
So on that sump pump that drains the diesel barrel pond... if you had a float on the switch that wasn't filled with air but rather something less dense than water yet more dense than diesel, then it would turn on for water but not for diesel... If you were super bored and had tons of free time (which I'm sure you're not, and don't.. lol) you could even use a second "normal" float switch, and hook them up to an alarm such that a triggered second switch *without* a triggered first switch would mean diesel had leaked and it could alert you to it.
Great video. I know you don't believe in covers/shields for your electric motors but I would design something to protect them from the elements. I couldn't let them just sit there and get hammered 24/7/365.
Someone from the battery world needs to sponsor Zack lol
And get him a stock pile of new batteries
There is a farmer down in Texas who has a 24 row planter,plants 300 acres a day with it,plants 8,200 acres in total,cotton,sunflowers,wheat,corn and makes 2,000 bales of hay.
Great video like usual. thanks
Great video!!!
I've been wondering what those little 'saw blade' thingys did. Thanks for the explanation. Try giving Didgie, your camera shy dog, (sp?) a treat when ever she can see the camera. She'll come to like it soon enough I'll bet. ,
Heck yes new video keep them coming 🚜
5:44 that face he made after that joke 😂
You've got to love that GMO DUST. It makes things grow bigger and be more productive.
We got six inches of snow in Grand Rapids Michigan but a little north of here they got 10-12 inches.
last weed double digit negatives. This week double digits positives. Snow disappeared today with the crazy change. We got lucky
How many kids fell asleep during your speeches lol another great video glad you are back
Just the girls were falling asleep lol!
love watching these! people around me laugh because I tell them I am laughing out loud to farming videos! I so want to be a farmer.....
Great video Zach! Holy crap you're expecting a foot more snow?!?! Here in Winona I'm looking forward to 64 degrees tomorrow! :)
This was filmed before the weekend. We got that foot!
That planter is awesome. Lol it makes my 6 row look pretty small.
You for got to say “that what she said” at 4:10! You’re slipping man! Lol
Dangit!!
lol screw school again! this is way better than sitting doing nothing!! lol have a nice day and good luck this year
I love spring break.
unknown user im not on spring break lol
@@OhioAgVideos well I just started mine
I'll just bet those grain elevators get a little bit taller every year... need to have more kids!!
No work for me because of rain so binge watching MNF all day!
Spring work is starting love you VIDS!!!!!!!!!
Were are almost done planting but the rain came and made a huge mess and we use a Challenger to plant our corn
Diodes in alternators can draw power from your battery when not in use alternators are very easily wrecked from boosting battery charging so you can install new batteries but if you're alternator is no good you're done the same thing happens to us all the time my only suggestion would be Deadman swithes
You crack me up with the GMO dust comment!!! 😂😂Great video once again
To bad you cant come down to iowa and talk to us in school.....4 of us guys watch you all this time keep it up man
What purpose do the outriggers serve on your planter?? Thanks making such great videos !!
Have you thought about installing a master battery switch? This switch will completely isolate the batteries from the rest of the vehicle. I'm guessing that you have deep cycle batteries.
Love your videos man great work. We farm about 4500 acres in central Missouri. We have the active row cleaners on our 1790 and absolutely love them. I think you will be very impressed with them. Keep on spreading the good word. Not very many people know what happens on a farm on a daily basis. If you have any questions about your row cleaners hit me up.
Now that's a Cool cat right there
Just bought a pair of work boots from Chet’s Shoes, if they’re going to support you...I’m going to support them.
Hope you have a great 2019!
That's awesome!! Did you tell them I sent you?!
I did mention you....the kid taking care of me wasn’t sure what I was talking about, but appreciated the business...I said you were kind of a big deal...he was even a millennial!
It was at the Circle Pines store, I think that’s the headquarters too??
Take care
Hey Zack, another great video brother! Just a thought, how about installing cctv cameras in the top of your grain bins.... that would save you a lot of climbing. - Dave
I might look into that but I'm not sure how to keep the dust off of them
Yeah, I guess I didn't think about that? Maybe ask your local cctv supplier for their thoughts in regards to dust getting on the lenses. Many modern cameras have an auto dust removal tool you can turn on to help minimize or eliminate dust on your camera’s sensor. These can be configured in various ways; you can set these to automatically run as soon as you turn on the camera, and to run again whenever I turn the camera off. Some cameras only offer options to clean the sensor on command. Whatever options you select, your goal should be to make sure that the anti-dust routine is run regularly. If you can, set the camera to do this automatically and forget about it, at least until your regular checks of your sensor show a problem with dust. When you see a problem, you can trigger the auto-sensor shaking dust removal routine and test again.
Enjoyed the video today.
The batteries probably aren't the problem, they are only as good as the charging system allows. Have you checked the output of the alternators, wire connections and condition of the wires on them there trucks? A little spray grease on alternator/battery connections goes along way.
True. Keeping the tops dry and free of dirt, water and oil helps a ton also. A battery with a wet dirty top can discharge prematurely.
What would you recommend for a first time shop... Battery Grease Gun and 1/2" Battery and/or Air Impact Wrench for the trucks and implements of all sizes.
Have you thought about trying one of those solar battery maintainers to keep on some batteries while they are sitting outside?
Yep.
Hey Zach--- You can now “ Yet er Done? 😎. Captain Al in Tampa.
I love your videos I farm in England
In response to your question,I dont farm but live in a rural area. When I was a kid I raised hogs and helped local farmers.
Your dog is adorable
Love all your videos. Wish I could be a farmer.
Love your videos been watching for 2years
The cat just wants to trade. Your candy bar for some Tootsie Rolls...... Enjoy. 👍
