Published: Jun 29, 2012

Earlier this week, three farm boys from Kansas dubbed the Peterson Farm Brothers released an ag parody of LMFAO's "I'm Sexy and I Know It" song, changing the words to "I'm Farming and I Grow It."

The video, released Tuesday, has climbed from zero to 1.5 million hits in a matter of three days, and has been passed around social media like wildfire.

The boys even have a new Facebook page to handle all the publicity. More than 5,000 likes in, their Facebook fans are already requesting a video number two.

One fan writes, "New Hampshire loves your video. Get busy on #2!"

Another posts, "We totally want a download of that to play cranked up when we drive past everyone's fields. I'm just a beneficiary of the work farmers do, but I fully appreciate it."

One of our farm organizations need to sign these guys up for ag awareness. I think the youngest one would have been affected by youth ag safety rules proposed awhile back. I would like to see them make a video showing how insane those rules would have been in their daily duties. Great to see pride in our ag youth.
