Zach Johnson, the “Millennial Farmer” is a 5th-generation farmer who’s spent his life growing, working, and learning on his family’s farm. His wit and dry sense of humor appeal to children and adults alike. A product of the millennial generation, his appreciation of new technology blends with his old-fashioned work ethic, and he offers a unique ability to deliver his message in a way that resonates with lifelong farmers as well as those with no knowledge of agriculture. With growing consumer awareness about where their food comes from, Zach has identified the need for an independent voice from the front lines of agriculture. Zach actively promotes agriculture by sharing his day-to-day experiences in the agriculture world while providing farmer-to-farmer education to help facilitate a collaborative conversation between farmers and the public.

A tip for twine, weeds and tall grass wrapping. Get a Stanley utility knife and get the carpet blades for it. They have a hook with the sharp edge on the inside of the hook. I grind down the sharp point a touch so not to dig into seals. Then go to town on it and slash and pull. It cuts through AND pulls the stuff loose. Works on tillage, mowers, cultivators, etc.

Great to see all of the family taking part in the operation. Need that to make it all work. Thanks to Jim also. Great group of people. Another guage wheel for the planter. Must be three or four you have replaced. I assume it is the rocks that bend them. The bearings on the field digger will need checked on I bet. From what you showed us lots of twine catch up in the bearings on the wheels. Another farming job to do. Thanks for the video today. Had lots of variety. Saw everyone also. Neat. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything Zach and family. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
