How and why is the water so clean? Not only does soil capture water, but soil also filters water. Water that moves into and through soil is cleaned by physical, chemical, and biological processes. When pollutants carried by water get caught in the small pores of the soil, they get physically cleaned. After draining, the soil has more pore volume available for water infiltration during the next rain because of the larger volume of empty pores.
Consequently, more infiltration and less runoff may occur with an artificially drained soil compared to a poorly drained soil, depending on the next rain’s nature and timing. A very intense rain may not produce much infiltration in either case.

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.

We were looking at losses of N and P from surface and subsurface agricultural drainage systems. We referred to the control structures as "flash board risers". And just as you explained, we added or removed flash boards to control the depth to the water table in the field.

  • Somewhere hereabouts there's a WWII-era training video on getting tanks unstuck from mud. As I recall, the trick is to take a good-sized tree trunk and tie it to the tracks. Then, as the tank tries to move the tracks, the tree trunk sticks in the mud, spreads the weight out, and stays in place, letting the tank move.

Steering wheel in the water. Good thing the air box is on the passenger side, the whole left side mirror fully in. 🤦‍♂️ Laugh about it now but freaking out then.

  • Almost 40 years ago, I led a platoon of four tanks across a 4 foot concrete culvert 6-8 feet of dirt and gravel above. As the last tank was crossing the land beneath his right track fell away and there was nothing but air beneath four of the seven road wheels. The tank was listing to starboard and looked like it might flip over. My company commander was there in minutes, soon the battalion commander and then the brigade commander arrived by helicopter. For a long time, they discussed holding the tank level with a chinook helicopter while winching it forward. Finally, the company commander, a previous Battalion Maintenance Officer, said, “Let’s just winch it out the way it went in, that’s always the rule.” In minutes the tank was free. I never forgot the lesson. By the way, in those days we never downloaded our main gun ammunition.

(It sounds like over 10’ to fall? Then roll? I hope the pilot told the Brigade Commander. BTW never click on porn adds. Report them. If they fail to get business. They will quit spamming.

Pulling a stuck item you increase force till you decide to stop, something breaks, limits out. But you hook onto something half unsupported, that could drop @10’, then roll that’s @3 times your max payload?

I’m a fourth generation farmer and a retired State Executive Director with the Farm Service Agency /USDA and I have the greatest respect for your messaging. I always said, a farmer has so many challenges from worrying about securing financing for land acquisitions (ownership or leasing), raising cost of seed and fertilizer as well as equipment cost, then if you get a crop planted, will the good Lord provide favorable growing conditions to make a crop, and if a crop is made will there be a strong market to be able to meet your financial obligations. I wish you a belated Merry Christmas and a very prosperous 2022 farming year. God bless you and your family and “keep it between the rows”. Tim

The equipment that was stuck was really stressful just watching it let along owning the equipment. Wow. That is the worse I have seen equipment stuck in the mud. No bottom to it. Good for people to see that do not farm to see what a farmer goes thru trying to harvest. We have been stuck before but nothing anyway close to this. Wow. The combine came out easier that the tractor. Just unbelievable to see this. Heartfelt thanks Zach for showing this to us. My heart goes out to the farmer that had that equipment stuck. Hard to take. Now to Randy’s equipment. I find his operation really interesting. The big piece he operates is quite the machine. Wow. Really interesting how they lay that pipe and the crew that follows Randy’s big piece. They all know what to do and how it all fits to. My compliments to Randy and his crew of people. Thanks Zach for filming his operation. Found it most interesting. The stuck equipment and Randy’s operation made for a absolutely great video. Thanks for all of your work. The Polaris machine you are using seems to be a handy unit. About it for now. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything.

  • In all you video's I see the 3 liftmaster remotes on the visor and you can easily simplify that. If the truck has a built in homelink transmitter you can program each button to replace one remote if you are using each remote to operate a single opener. As long as each remote is only being used for one gate or one door you can consolidate those remotes into one remote. Each liftmaster remote can operate 3 separate doors.

  • I know that farmers run into wet spots in the field and get stuck from time to time. I’ve had my share of getting stuck. But I’ve never buried a piece of equipment that bad. When you’re stuck you’re stuck, don’t make it worse. My father taught me to stop spinning the tires and burying the equipment early on.

  • When we lived outside Marcel, MN the road to our house had soft spot on it and the county road crew dumped many loads of clay and rocks into this roughly 50 yard spot. They used a road grader to level it out and it sunk-in, only 6” of the tires of the two rear drive axles were visible. The near by farmer used his small bill dozer to pull it out. We were standing where grader had been and the hole refilled with the clay and rock so we could stand on an not get out feet muddy. But if we pumped our legs the ground acted like a big water bed. Minnesota peat bogs are under much of northern MN and it looks like western MN as well. Great video Zach, btw that was in the late spring (after mud vacation) in 1960. That road is most likely paved now.

    • muddy water is only because the soil is moving with it. on a field the ground is pretty compact at the depth they're putting the lines, so there's not really any room for the soil to move with the water. think of it as a natural filter. and if it weren't for the chemicals for the crops, you'd be able to drink that water.
