ok
the fans only work up to a point then they call in the crop dusters to fly helicopters over the trees all night.
I'm not sure that stuff works Zach, have you looked at the top of your head recently, and that widows peak is looking pretty peaked to me.....🤔
bit late for me zach started losing my hair when i was 26 now 51 and not much left lol. great video the nut shaker bit did make me laugh.
I appreciate your trying to save my hair.
But... as my grandfather used to say...
"At some point, you stop trying to save a dying tree. You just have to cut the darn thing down." 😆
I think a D11 would make a great recovery vehicle when Jim gets stuck next time.
I think they should just give Jim the d11. Then he won't get stuck.
There was 2 rules I was told about tracked vehicles... rule 1- just because it has tracks doesn't mean that it will float.
Rule 2- if it's to wet to walk on "DONT DRIVE ON IT"
Also tracks will take you places tires wount, but when you do wind up stuck your really really really stuck and at that point REALLY in trouble. Lol
I've buried a d8 a couple times, I don't recommend it.
@@edrouse9578 but what if they get the D11 stuck? Won't be nothin getting that out! There can be some pretty good wet spots.
@@brycehenzler7370 that's rule 3. Whatever you get stuck, takes a larger one to unstuck you. And if you're the biggest to get stuck, becomes lawn art
Zach it’s been a long time since I have laughed that much!!!! I even learned some things, but when you 3 guys are together it’s hard to have a serious moment!! Great video and you couldn’t have had better company on your trip!!!!! Thanks Zach 👍👍😎
Wow!! This video goes to show us how lucky this country is to have such a diversity of farms and farmers to feed everyone so well and cheap. Thanks to all of America's farmers!!
Just keep in mind. Once you get a D11 stuck. It's there and it takes a lot of equipment and time and digging to get it out! We got one stuck and it took two more D11 dozers, two trackhoes and a D9 because the suction vacuum the undercarriage creates is phenomenal.
"Amonds are almonds if you drop the L when you shake the tree." That was a great recovery. Lol
They have been shaking the "L" out of them for YEARS!!
“Did you know we’re almost 40” lol had me dying. Love the videos!! Very informative and entertaining! It’s very interesting seeing such a different side of agriculture.
Zach, I’ve commented before and I have to admit I’m a big fan. There’s something so refreshing about watching these videos and seeing another part of everyday America that has got so much science and technological thought built into it but at the same time is so basic to our “everyday” even though we (as city folks such as myself) may not realize it or appreciate it. Keep the videos coming. They’re like a breath of fresh air.
Thank you, Tim! I really appreciate it! Comments like these mean a lot to me.
@@MillennialFarmer Rest assured Mr. M.F. Mr. Carpenter has put into writing what a lot of us feel. You and yours are doing some fine work and it's appreciated.

Thank you for uploading so often lately. The content is always amazing. Thank you so much Zach. Thanks and stay well. 🙂
You had me in tears. Spoon. I’d like to see some footage after a few beers. You guys Be a riot. Becky you do great work!
Nice family.
Mom is so patient and kind lol
There is a simple patch kit for them Polaris issues with the temp sensor. You have to first load it on a trailer and then trade it for a Ski Doo. All those problems are gone.
OK,,, I spit coffee out my nose at the almond/Amond Dad joke!!! (I don't even wanna address the bunk assignments at the end)
A long time ago, I had a summer job surveying for the Dept Highways. In rugged terrain in Southern BC, the project was to cut a new road and the D 9 with a ripper was impressive.
Even amusing when in going through an old and fractured rock unit it pulled apart a den of rattlesnakes, which in May was still highly populated from the winter hibernation. Snakes all over the place and the engineer observed that "they haven't a pit to hiss in".
Some of your best content is coming from this road trip. I’m learning so much. Thanks
The trip so far with MPL and Trevor has been so informative but also so very funny....like big kids. Keep it coming Zac
You should see a D11 ripping solid limestone. Cheaper, less permitting than blasting.
The D11T is 248,500 lb. That is the largest dozer Cat makes.
We have fans like that here in michigan. They make a whop whop sound when running
This was the best video I’ve ever seen zac your friends remind me of mine I loved this one thank you so much for everything you and your family provide on you tube podcasting etc your work is a blast p.s. thank you Becky for everything you do with this part of the farm as well

@@liftingcoolasf ok
Thank you for the kind words!
@ 27:34 was the BEST MOMENT of the whole visit to California.......The first yell I would have been laughing hysterically and ruined the film.........THAT WAS GREAT!!!!! As Tiny Elvis(SNL) would say those Bunk Beds are Huge!!!!!!!
Love it! The d11s are very handy on the farm, painful when you drive the tractor in the tracks left behind though😂😂
You guys are craaaaaazyyyyy, I like that. Catch you on the next one!
Hey Mr Millennial Farmer! Good info on this one and plenty of laughs. From someone in the bee industry I think it was great you guys did a little bit on the bees out there in the Cali region. Hopefully Randy, Ryan, Trevor and yourself didn't get zapped out there creating that content. The migratory bee operations in this country are unsung workers that put in large hours away from home. So having that piece of content was awesome to see!!! The rest of the video was as funny as ever, not sure I could have held it together as well as you did at the "nut farm" HAHAHAHA!!!
Yes, I saw fans in vineyards in the Santa Rosa region back in the 90s, to circulate the air to keep the vines from freezing.
Now this is entertainment!! Thank you for the great laughs Zach!
I LOVE these!!! So cool to see how other cops are harvested, I had no idea they moved bees around like that! And the humor.... OUTSTANDING! I'm still chuckling...
Amazing video, Zach!
It is sooo cool that you go out to other farms and show the different aspects of ag that might not normally get as much exposure.
The work you do to get the word out about agriculture and how it benefits us all is amazing.
Your videos are always so much fun to watch.
Thank you!
The wind machines very likely are Orchard Rite machines manufactured in Yakima, Wa. They cost about $20,000 each, and will protect 10 to 15 acres. Some Cat operators split their tracks on the second pass, they believe that running the cross pattern leaves an unripped diamond pattern. Thx for the video.
Speaking as a CA resident, they already tax the hell out of us. They don't pay for the roads like they're supposed to.
Just like any government that’s 24-7 on drugs and alcohol
Used to do that with D9s back in the 60s and 70s in the hill country east of where you are at. The 9s of the day used pony motors to start the main engine. The state of California used to be such a Wonderful place for all kinds of foods that grew but how time reveals what we were doing to ourselves...
That was a great video! I laughed so hard especially at the bunk bed scene and the “ can u believe we are almost 40” lol great stuff keep doing what u do guys!
Komatsu no longer make the biggest dozer, the D575. It ceased production well over a decade ago as the series was plagued with mechanical availability issues, combined with poor sales (due to availability and usefulness). Komatsu still make the D475 which is basically the same size as the D11 and a helluva lot cheaper!
Anyone else watch the Jackson Brothers??? Our down under farmer brothers with two D11's... good channel, just saying...
The CAT D11 and Komatsu 475 are very similar (same as the D10 and 375),,, spec wise the 475 weighs about 10-15k lbs more, production wise they perform so similar its more of a TCO decision I'm sure,,, whats it going to cost you for the next 30 years...
A D11 doesn't have bad visability - try operating an HD 21- Allis Chalmers and push up coal with a 21 foot finish blade- that's what we had up in Alaska in rhe Air Forde.
We used slightly longer rippers in the mines I worked at. We ripped the ore dumps so we could leach them better and not pond up on the surface. Once in a while there would be a buried rock and it would either stop the machine or buckle the rams on the cylinders.
I bet that would give the operator a headache!
A coal mine near me breaks a ripper shank every 6-12 months on their D11s, which gets expensive.
There is a CZcams channel called Cutting Edge Engineering that fixes the rams and shanks. Really good channel.
@@Eric-dr5bj Kurtis is a great machinist and only an 8 hour drive away so next time I'm around there I'll probably call in and thank him for his videos.
@@bmw1894 wait...like...break the shank at the big end or work end? That is metal either way...but wow.
The best MNF video I've ever seen 😂😂😂😂 big dozers and plenty of humor. The bunk beds capped it perfectly
I was waiting for a "Good night John Boy" lol just like deercamp snuggled up to your buddy!
Seriously though the Tour has been very cool to watch.
😎👍 〽️
Those 🐝 Bees sure liked Randy! He had a whole bunch of Buddies on him at the Hives’s 😌❤️🖖🏼🇺🇸🐝
Operating in the central valley was really where the track-type tractor and Caterpillar started. Those irrigated soils compacted easily and needed lots of flotation and traction to manage. Before the D10L came out in 1978, they used up to 4 x D9's hooked to a ripper to do what the D10L/D11R does now, to periodically break up the compacted soils. I spent a lot of time there when I was in Cat's Ag Division. It's an interesting place. I enjoy your channel, and it's nice to see all of the tracked equipment you use.
The same issue for almonds exists as it does for apples. In upstate NY, orchard farmers have to watch the weather when the blooms are out to minimize loss.
Love the content Zach.. The Nut Shaker piece everything around them collecting the nuts deez nuts .. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Priceless Content
You guys are having way too much fun!
At one point my uncle was the biggest bee keeper in Illinois (he still might be?) Anyway, it's about the most miserable work I can think of. I think a major, subconcious reason for moving to Phoenix was so I never have wear a bee suit in the middle of midwest summer again.
The joy and laughs you bring on a snowy wyoming day is great!
You shake the "L" out of it. Brilliant. Also, that must be a very well built bunk bed to have 4 tall guys in it.
It all makes sense now!
"Tall", good choice!
I'm really impressed that bunkbed held up. Funny video, Thanks.
Wasn’t expecting that ending. Hilarious. ( On second thought…shouldn’t have been surprised. Boys will be boys 😂).
you guys remind me of being a early teenager, still tied to mom's apron, Not yet figured out winning does no good and still remember "just you wait until your father gets home young man!
Once again, proof that guys don’t mature much past the age of 14 - LOL. I was expecting to hear “night John boy” but then I’m not a millennial. Thanks for the interesting content and the laughs.
I was too. :)
That was awesome. Tears are still streaming down my face and my winter belly muscles are sore!
Favorite moment of the day, watch millennial farmer's videos while eating
I always try to watch "Outdoors With The Morgans" during a meal. Less chance of needing the Heimlich. !.!
I just watched this video again and I was thinking, during the bunk-bed scene the ultimate line would have been from "Planes Trains & Automobiles" Trevor, Those aren't pillows!!!" LOL
Great video. I'm surprised the almond operations seem to going normally. California is in severe drought again and water allocations have been drastically cut. Almonds are one of the most water intensive crops in California.
"Amonds"
It's a binary equation. The orchards that have water are in full production, and the ones that have no water allocated get ripped out and fallowed or converted to another crop.
The various water districts and irrigation coops and such work out what to do put the available water towards.
That was great video I am midwestern grain farmer corn and soybeans neat seeing something harvested to funny seeing Trevor hanging on the tree with nutshacker doing it’s thing here I have two walnuts tree I let wind blow my nuts off in the fall 😅
They keep building houses that are priority for water. Huge westside canals transport water south to LA
@@deere7227 the cities are going into mandatory water conservation as well.
This really hits. I spent some years in the San Joaquin Valley while in the military. Most people have no idea how much of our food comes from there and the insane farm equipment is like the cherry on top.
I can't wait until Zach gets an erectile dysfunction sponsorship...
I'm hoping I've got some time left before those ones 🤣
The Zach and Randy tour with tag along Trevor has been so informative and very entertaining. Great job guys!
Don't worry...from experience, the receding hairline will go away eventually...especially when it meets the thinning spot on the top
Man up and buzz it off with a number 1 or bare. Buzzed is better
@@rbnhd1976 I started shaving mine at 27
@@anthonyl950 was replying in general to men, it looks much better than anything else, toupee, combover etc. More manly to just own it imo
Pistachios are wind pollinated. My ratio was 12 females to one male but you can go higher with a larger orchard.
I think I need a d11 in my life
We all do.
Sooo...we get to watch crops grow and hair! Kool!!
I definitely wouldn’t want to have to pay that D11 fuel ⛽️ bill! 🤮
Kind of like filling up motorhome fuel tank
YOU boys did a mighty fine tour// i had a fine time just beeing along //TKS//
How do you call an American bee? USB😂
I really enjoy the winter trips. Shows another dimension to agriculture.
Fantastic video! The four of you need to take the show on the road. Hilarious! More please!
Have a brother that was starting to lose his hair at the age of 22 took away all acidic food(bad food)always had pure well water a, went to Nettles silica in them,hair grew all back
When there is hard pan it’s rough. The stuff they’re ripping is soft and easy. And when they put a slip plow on the back of the ripper it will bring the bottom soil up top and mix the soil.
That is one well built bunk bed!!!!!!
Thank you to Zach and the guys. I really needed the laughs. I have been dealing with the declining health of my elderly parents this week. My dad is in the hospital with asymptomatic Co-vid and some other health issues and I can only go to the hospital and get updates. Policy doesn't allow visitors to his room, not even caretakers. My mom who has early stage Alzheimer's is at home alone. So, on top of the hospital trips, I have been juggling staying with her, seeing my wife who works full time and kids that are in school, stuff around my house, worship and my self employed business, in which I can't find help. So if I don't work I don't have a paycheck. The only sibling I had died years ago and there is no other family that can really help. My parents don't have a whole lot of money so outside care right now is out of the question. All that being said, I laughed until I cried at your antics. Haven't been able to do that in a while. What I really love about your videos is that it is just honest and not full of made up drama. Thanks again!
Lol that IH red cub cadet is a highly sought after lawn tractor! I’m a Deere man and I’d love to have that!
You drove through my old stomping grounds of Porterville and Lindsay in Tulare County. Some of the best oranges in the world come from there.
That is a heck of a hedge trimmer and boy thats one hell of a subsoiler!!
I work where the steering and ripper controls are assembled for cat. Kinda neat to see them in the machine.
I was waiting for "Mom, Mom, MOM.... I want meatloaf.... Mom...." Absolutely hilarious
THAT WAS A GOOD ONE, Interesting about other farmers no matter where they farm.
I know exactly where that is. I’ve leveled those fields before. So cool.
I’m in NorCal near Chico and we had a hard freeze devastate our almond crop thank god for insurance but it’s still a damn shame
in aussie we dont do this sort of stuff our soils are mostly light and we try not to disturb it too much we talking a top soil of three inches lol most is never plow dont even disturb the stubble from last year some times might burn off but mostly we seed and fertilize at same time
Enjoy your videos .... they keep approving these huge orchards, part of the reason for the lack of water ... lived there for 40 plus years, miss that place like a root canal .. all the best!
You do realize that approval is based on the amount of taxable income, and massive property. Can you compete financially with an orchard so young it hasn't dropped it's nuts yet?
I'm in Fresno! Glad to know you were in the area. Sorry for the bad air though 😬
I lost my Sh!t when he was yelling "mom!" Best moment EVER in thousands of hours of Millennial Farmer.
This is exactly what my niece and her husband do. North Dakota to Texas to California. Great video.
So a question for Randy how many D11 dozers do you want now to play with
In Florida they use to put heaters in the fields
This video had it all. Education, technology, 🐦 & 🐝 , & comedy. Thanks for sharing!! 🤣🤣
In & Out is the best fast-food hamburger operation in the states!
A Boy Scout Troop that own drivers licenses and can go to bars!! The explanations are priceless. And a little scary!
Zach look at the people that standing in front of the hives have bees 🐝 all over their back. Because they are flying back to the hive and they are to heavy to make another trip around to land in the hive.
Here in So. Cal, the we get the wind coming off the ocean and the mountains keep the smog from blowing away. The fans are turned on when the smog levels get too high. This helps dissipate the smog. lol
Zach (as gigantic D11 roars away): "Well, that, uh, was my tutorial on, uh, DRIVING this thing..."
CZcams, two seconds later: cuts to Depends commercial
25 years or so ago, I had the chance to visit the Cat plant in Lafayette, IN. My dad worked for a foundry that was geared toward making unique samples of products more than making thousands of any one thing and Cat hired them to make some custom exhaust pipes for an engine that was about the size of that one if not bigger. Each cylinder except the end ones had a pipe that was over 100lbs of hi-moly cast iron, the end ones being about 150lbs. The engine in question used a V8 Chevy as a starter and had a radiator that was almost eight and a half feet high. I don't know what the overall weight was, but the one we were there to see had to have a custom trailer built around it to be able to get under some of the overpasses on the interstate. Fun stuff.
But great video of the farms and sharing how they get their product to market was fun to learn so thanks Zach...Boys...and Becky for the edit I believe. Appreciated!!!!!
How did ya like House of Beef Zack? If its the one in Oakdale man I love that place. I’m born and raised in the Central Valley thanks for highlighting our Hardworking farms/farmers!
I bet Becky is glad you guys did that tour out west and not in Minnesota
We had several D11R and N Models on the mines I worked at when I was younger. They're awesome machines. They move a lot of rock and dirt for sure.
WOW..... from start to finish.... and the Bee guys.... amazing
Becky had to be shaking her head looking at this video. It was a great laugh, good stuff.
You guys have way too much fun! So nice to see. Thanks
OMG. The bunk beds at the end is the funniest outtake ever! Almost wet myself on that one. Awesome trip!
