CURRENT SCHEDULE
Expect a new video every Sunday at 11AM Central!
How Farms Work by Ryan Kuster is a UA-cam channel based in rural Potosi, Wisconsin. Our mission is to teach those who didn't grow up on a farm what the farming life is like. These videos show the Kuster family working together raising cattle and crops. We believe everyone who wants to know more about farming should be able to share the farming experience with us and we look to educate the world on many essential agriculture topics.
How Farms Work takes place on ~1,100 acres with around 75-200 cattle at any given time. Four John Deere tractors are currently used on the farm, which are a 4020, 4640, 7600, and 8235R.

Man we had a bad drought down here in Louisiana as well as texas and most of the southern U.S. So many never got a 2nd and 3rd cut. My uncle has cows and he fed corn fodder and he said his cows ate more corn fodder then they did hay. He said the fodder leaves are what they mostly ate.
The jcb sure makes it easy to feed. Hope you guys have a great vacation.
If I’m close by the show. I’m going to stop by!❤
That jcb has been a great investment
The MagSafe charger mounts would probably work great for that.
I know it seems silly when a regular pocket knife can do it (I had the same thought) but I bought the Sloan hay knife and I love it. I think it would definitely help you with how you reach in over the ring to cut it.
Hey Ryan. It was great to meet you walking around at the show last year. I'll be there again hosting a booth. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for sharing Ryan and yes it’s a mess feeding this time of the year 👍
Great video! Mud is the standard for my northern VA area in winter. Be careful with the processed bales, especially since you tip them down to unwrap them. They can slide off the forks. I believe you will prefer processed bales for bedding. Besides smaller stuff to spread, they have a better absorbtion capacity. And DON'T just sample the hay from the edge, you need to go deeper. Your local Extension Office may have a hay sampling probe, and they can direct you where to get it tested. Dry hay can be tested from a windrow sample, just before baling, but you are better off pulling samples from silage bales when you open a row. Smart move checking on nutrition, but protein blocks/tubs can be an insurance policy for the cattle.👍👍
any feed merchants will do an analysis on feed usually for free well they used to
Be sure and start adding a high mag mineral about a month before green grass to prevent grass tentay. Great videos.
Like the video Ryan on feeding your cows and all the sugestion you give .
Thanks Ryan!
Why not store some bales on pallets. They are usually free and would keep the fodder drier. Have seen some farmer do that to a lot of bales. A little extra work but would keep bottom of bales dry
It's pretty tough to feed cattle in the winter month, but the jcb is the right machine for the job😉👍 nice video again👍👍
Does the Ag Extension office in Lancaster do hay analysis? Or maybe the UW Experimental Farm out towards Bloomington?
Check out Redmans salt and mineral. They analyze feed and build mineral blocks for your herd with pallet purchase. Farmer Tyler Ranch utuber just did a process review. The JCB still is a game changer.
In the past I've used Dairyland labs for nutrient analysis. They're in Wisconsin although I don't remember where. Can get as simple or in depth as you want with there testing.
Great stuff Ryan, stay warm👌👍🙏🙂
The White wrap can be used for small tarps. You might ask Plumbing Co’s if they could use them on job sites.
Hey Ryan you're not the only 1 to deal with a muddy mess.
Thanks!Love your winter videos!:)
awsome video ryan thumbs up and shared yes never good when mud sand frezzes on your tracks can casue issues in the long run for sure
I could’ve used a jcb with a snow blower when we got dumped on two weeks ago.
Great video as always Ryan keep up the great work
This video was awesome, and also, jet fuel does not melt steel I beams
Get one of those hot water pressure washers for the tracks.
Or if you have one of those on demand hot waters heaters for the house; add a spigot somewhere to supply hot water to a pressure washer.
send him 3K
Hey Ryan, nice video as always! Can you maybe tell me what jacket you are wearing? That would be awesome, thanks buddy
Hey Ryan!!
Why don't ya look into buying them white hoop barns, see alot farms have them for cheaper alternative for storage.....
Good video
That is a cool app
Hard to believe that it's this muddy at end of January. Changing times and temperature s
Safe travels enjoy Louisville! Check their River out too!
ryan get yourself some wellington boots fer pete's sake keep the wife happy
Pullover Tingley are the best, and Treds are ok. You have your comfy work boots on and the pullovers keep the water and mud out.
I was thinking you must have boots on when standing in 7 inches of slop.
Hi Ryan - thank you for the time, effort and information you share about your operation. Quick question, I am looking for a suction cup phone holder that actually stays attached to the inside glass through all seasons. Is your new one staying put and what do you have?
Putting arrows randomly in the thumbnail needs to die on the Internet.
Good content. 👍
Hey Ryan, My friend looks like you need to invest in a good pair of rubber boots. But thank you for another video for us. Take care. Take is easy and TRUST JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Ryan how far away is the closest walmart?
Hey Ryan, great video again. I’m interested in a jcb like yours. Could you do a review on how it’s holding up over the years. And anything newer models might have that yours doesn’t ? Thank You
I’ll be doing a 5 year review this spring!
Muy bueno! Para los animales tenes que estar todos los días! No importa el clima! 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🇦🇷👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜acá tuvimos un año con bastante sequía! Ahora se puso bastante normal con las lluvias !
He Ryan, you maybe got a link to the click counter? I would love to have it on my phone, but can't find it.
what hay app did you use or was that something you created
Do you still use the corn harvester at the main farm?
I am wondering if a hot water pressure washer cleaning station would be easier to use than a shovel cleaning out the mud on the skid loader?
That would be pretty great, I used to use the water hose but washing every day makes a mess in the yard so I reverted to just using a shovel.
What is that hay tracker you are using on your phone
I think you guys should buy a John Deere 5030 for a manure tractor.
Do any of the specialized rubber track tread patterns make a difference in snow or slick mud/clay? Anyone seen tracks for less then $1500 each?
What’s the app called
🍻🍻🍻🍻
Hey How Farms Work can we Colab?
Good stuff
