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.

    Zach, big time thanks for giving me an outlet for my childhood dreams ( in the 60's!) of farming. Favorite times were going to Grandpa's farm near Radcliffe, Iowa ( where you've at least driven by! ) You were my first exposure to youtube farming videos and not to inflate your ego too much but after watching all of yours and then expanding to some others you stand at the top of the heap... and certainly have been an inspiration for other videographers. Glad you've been able to include your family, your Dad and Jim also. So very thankful for all that you farmers do to keep this great country (at least in my opinion!!!) fed. Always look forward to seeing what's happening on the farm. Glad to be able to glimpse what goes into the family farm. Keep them coming.... as long as your family comes first!! We don't mind if you need to take a break every once in a while. ...not too long...!

    I grew up on a farm in SE Iowa, working for many of the area farmers. The tractors were generally Farmall H & M, John Deere A, B, & G and an Allis Chalmers with a couple of Fords. The farming of today is so different. I drove by many a farm & wanted to pull in & ask the farmer if I could spend a day with him. Thanks to You Tube I get to spend many days with many farmers in Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania & Saskatchewan. I love it.

    I think it’s also to remember that level of exposure is important when dealing with chemicals. So let’s say you are using a garden sprayer and you mix up 5 gallons of spray. If you mix double the concentration of chemical your exposure is double for that batch when you spray it. So stick to the ratio recommended by the chemical manufacturer.

    @@guidofarage7457 When you're monocropping you kinda have to spray something but unlike conventional herbicides, some farmers literally spray closer to harvest when the plant's seeds, fruit, cub or whatever is developing. With conventional herbicides they sprayed earlier on and the chemical didn't get on the edible portion as they hadn't yet developed. As the plant matured it created enough shade to prevent weeds.
