- We finished harvesting in almost record time this year, thanks to cooperative weather, and lots of field storage thanks to the Brent V1100 which kept the truck moving!

Summer Schedule
Our schedule may vary, but expect a new video every Wednesday. Friday, and 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.
The camera work and editing is excellent. I wish more people would take that into account when watching these videos.
agreed thats why Im here
By far the highest quality farming videos!
Yeah the best footage and music on youtube 👌👍
I've driven to all 48 states and your area of the country is one of the prettiest. You are lucky to live there.
Always good to see Hannah in your videos. She brings a good energy to them. Keep up the good work.
To the few who see this god bless stay safe and be awesome people these small farms are what make the world go round thank you Ryan for bringing us on the adventure and a special thanks to you Ryan and all other farms I’m a farmers son we own a 10,000 acre operation i drive a 8230r and I love it god bless to you all farmers or not stay safe and be amazing btw love the sound of that freight liner keep up the good content god bless once again love you all
Something very satisfying watching you haul your crops. It might be because some of us watch you all year. The results (harvest/your semi- trips) are the pay-off for us, too. Thanks for taking us along!
I can't agree with you more. Good call.
Nice to have the harvesting done before the weather turns against us. Commodity prices are good here in Ontario Canada. Corn is $225 per ton soybeans are $14.75 per bushel other grains doing well too. Hope your prices are good too.
Even despite the downed corn from the Derecho this year, it seems like you guys had a wayy less stressful harvest than compared to last year. Glad to see you guys got done early enough to finally get some tillage done this fall for a change. Love the drone shots - those rolling hills look so good with the rows of corn on them. Great video, and thanks for the awesome content as always!!
Oh to be 50 years younger.
Hey Ryan!! Hey Hannah!! Hey Rocket!! Had everyone keeping an eye on you Ryan!!
The semi purchase sure seems to have been a great addition to the farming operation. I’m sure it’s paying its own way. It gives you a lot of flexibility. Harvest over, good time for a wedding.
I agree on a weddin'
Glad to hear that harvest is done!👍😉 looking forward to see some tillage videos😁👍
Cong Ryan you’re shifting and driving that truck like a pro! Great job both on videos and farming 😎
Great video Ryan. Love the cinematography on the aerial shots. They really show the grandeur and beauty of the area. Looking forward to tillage.
Crazy weather! I'm in Bakersfield California elevation404' . Its been 18ish - 20ish years since we had snow but it could be a white January here. Crazy weather! Prayers for you success.
Good to see that you finished harvest. We are busy harvesting in New South Wales, Australia, best crop in many years after 3 years of drought.
Nice to see that your helper has decided to return.
Great video, I enjoy how much pride ya'll put into your farm. Brings back a lot of memories that I've got with my family during harvesting.
Yeah weather was GREAT this fall for harvest in WI. Rain ended in September, and mostly dry October. Just for that damn Derecho.
Gave er big ol thumbs up because your drone footage and camera angles are awesome as always! Great job Ryan
Love that drive to and from Dubuque. Beautiful countryside.
Thank you for adding authorship to your music, I really appreciate it.
Great cinematography!
Yay, harvest done!
Congrats on a successful harvest I'm sure this year wasn't easy at all your camera skills are great keep up the good work
Congratulations. Always a good feeling.
Thanks Brian love the videos on Harvest .
Another great video. Glad the weather held. Hope tillage goes smooth.
Great video love the footage,and too see jobs other than the harvesters.🇨🇮👏👏👏👏
Seriously quick tipping. 👍👍👍
Good video, thanks.
Great video and congratulations on completing harvest. Thank you for the video.
Great Season Ryan, glad to see Old Red doing a good job, haven't heard you complain about the slider doors in a while, guess there getting better. As always great video, and Thanks for the content from your family. God Bless
Excellent video- - - one of your best !!!!!!!! 👍👍👍
Hope you now see how much a semi is well-worth the investment. The load distribution is about the same for us as you described, usually make the front hopper fuller than the rear hopper and balances out rather nicely.
You have some dry graphite to spray on your hopper slides? Usually have to do that once or twice a year depending how much hauling.
Great videos, thanks for all you and family do! Can't wait to see tillage videos!
Congratulations on finishing harvest. I know it wasn't an easy one due to the storm damage, but you did it with class and style. Well done!
money in the bank..... Glad to see things went fairly smooth with Harvest. BTW nice to see the house sided....
Your videos are always top notch ,excellent job Ryan keep up the good work !!!
Nice vid!
A beautiful morning indeed pal. 🤜🇬🇧🇺🇸
Brilliant ☺️
Great Camera placement! Enjoy the longer 30 minute videos especially when you watch and the time flys by. Too many FarmTube channels are getting filled with sponsered advertising lasting over 1/8 of the video length. Is this the oldest/ longest running FarmTube channel?
Thanks again for another one can’t wait for the next
Hi Hannah ,Ryan and Rocket, good to see ye got through harvest in good time this year:):)
Perfect music mix on the B roll
What a beautiful video
Love your sweet pup.
Thanks for the great video Ryan the drone footage was awesome. Congrats on being done with harvest 👍
Love these videos! Great camera work and editing
Great Vlog, Ryan you are a TOP vlogger, the video quality is great and Hannah adds to the whole deal thanks
Great job on the video thanks for taking us along for the ride awesome drone footage man
Beautiful drone footage!
Great videos, regards from Brazil!!
Happy got harvesting done early this year and actually focus on getting ready for winter this year
And also I wanna be a grain farmer u got any advice for me
Great video
Nice video. Lots of work and scenery! In my area most fields produce 100,000 bushels, it is just same each day. No dumping on county roads, no pastures and hillsides! I sold 75K bu @ $4.70 today looks good for now!
👍Great video Ryan
19:30 the joys of driving a manual with your woman sittin shotgun

Long drive seems like an excellent time to take someone to lunch. LOL!
Dam you trust those camera mounts🤯 🤣😂. Great video editing one again. Stay safe 🏴 👌 👍
Hi Ryan I hope you're doing well seems like you need some Viper sunglasses looks like that sun hurts your eyes in that truck pretty well you have a good day my friend
This is awesome. I went to school at UW-Platteville.
Glad you guys had a good safe harvest, despite the challenges this year dished out with the derecho and of course the "fungusamongus" (kung-flu, wu-flu, Sichuan sniffles, whatever). At least most folks seemed to catch a break during harvest this year. Last year just seemed everything was wet all over... we waited a week and took a lot longer to harvest and corn was STILL coming out of the field wet-- just that kind of a year. Hannah is so cute, and a big help. Think you got a keeper there! Treat that lady right!
Here's hoping you can get your fall tillage work done and be in better shape for a *hopefully* better next year! Later! OL J R :)
Wish it was so picturesque here in Lancaster UK, its been very wet and windy as usual for November. Finally able to watch in high quality thanks to a fault on the old phone line being fixed, noticed big red is more big pink. Maybe a bit of t-cut over winter to restore her paint work?
have you ever considered bringing back a half load of the distillers grain to feed to you cattle. if they are dry you should be able to store all winter but i heard sometimes they come wet?
There's "wet distiller's grain" (WDG) and "dry distiller's grain" (DDG)... he should SERIOUSLY look into that and maybe doing backhauls and selling some locally would be a viable money-maker for the farm. Even for his own cattle the DDG's would be a GREAT addition-- DDG is higher in protein than corn-- when they make ethanol, a 56 pound bushel of corn goes into the fermenter, and out comes ethanol (ethyl alcohol) and 44 pounds of DDG... Part of the starch in the corn is converted to sugar and eaten by the yeasts fermenting the grain into alcohol (they basically "p!ss" alcohol as a waste product) but they don't consume the protein in the grain, so the DDG is much higher in protein and lower in starch due to concentration of the protein in the DDG compared to the original corn. SO feeding DDG or mixing it with corn into a ration for his cattle would really add value, and he could sell more of the original corn into the market, offsetting part of the cost of the DDG. If there's other cattle farmers in the area (or his Dad or brother were interested in feeding some DDG's) then he could easily make backhauls of DDG's and pick up some extra money that way, particularly if he could store it or deliver it to other farmers in the area later on and sell it to them. Would certainly make the drive down there MUCH more profitable! OL J R :)
A good season considering pal.
You know what the good old farmers back in the day used to say if it ain't red leave it in the shed. Lol 👍🇨🇦
Like you said, back in the day, when it was PURELY IH before Case climbed into bed and F..... it.
@@steveholton4130 Sorry it's the other way around... back before Case got effed up with all that red sh!t... IH managed to bankrupt themselves and then CIH did it again and ended up as CNH, and now they're BOTH owned by FIAT (Fix It Again Tomorrow) what a sh!t-show just like AGCO LOL:) OL J R :)

Rocket has you well trained!
Oh by the way Ryan you need your logo on the side of your truck that would be cool
Thought about it but it seems like I change my mind every other month on upgrading 😂
@@HowFarmsWork Upgrading logos or upgrading trucks?? LOL:) I always thought adding a semi to the mix would really help you guys out-- I learned myself when I got back into grain in the mid-90's after a 15 year hiatus of all cotton (and of course hay and cows) that trucking costs sucked up a LOT of profit out of the grain; I could never justify a semi but I did buy an old 66 Chevy tandem to haul my own and was WAY money ahead at the end of the year. I was curious, seeing how that big cart really helped yall out (keeping the combine running and filling the truck quicker for more "turn and burn" time instead of wait time) you thinking about possibly upgrading carts at some point?? I know you gotta pay down debt on the JCB and semi and stuff first no doubt and that would be wise, but looks like a bigger cart that could double-duty as a "mother bin" would really speed things up for yall, at some point. Ideally the "perfect setup" is when the truck only sits long enough to get loaded, the combine doesn't have to stop to wait for the truck to get back and the cart unloaded into it. Worked great last year for us-- BIL was running the 9600 Deere, and I was jumping between the 600 bushel Killbros cart and the semi, hauling into town... I could make a run into town, dump, weigh out, and get back to the field, and the cart would be full and the combine full and he sat maybe five minutes-- dump the cart on the truck as he dumped the combine into the cart at the same time, he'd double back into the field, I'd finish dumping the cart, grab another dump off the combine by the time I got down to where he was in the field, run it back out and top off the truck, then stage the cart next to where he was picking, jump down roll the tarp on the truck, hop in and head to town again-- slick as snot!
I love it when a plan comes together! LOL:) OL J R :)
I love how rocket just shook his head and was like “nope”
Rockets so cute
i love yore drone fotige
Congratulations 🎉🎊 on your harvest! The weather an stuff was excellent. I think there is a aftermarket jakes brake to add on? But if not probably make jake brake sound effects instead 🤣
You can add them, but you gotta do some engine work to install them, and it's NOT CHEAP to add them on... cheaper to just buy a truck with them on it from the factory probably... OL J R :)
go hannah
rail it, front to back :) for us hauling shuger beets to Minnesota the dot pulls the scale tickets from the plant and sends us a bill at the end of the year.
Ryan hows it going buddy,Melbourne Australia here it’s been a long time since I spoke with ya but still watching mate,well done on harvest again great viewing, now why don’t you use a rattle gun on truck gates,will it work or what,again well done quality video.
I know you were talking about getting a new trailer, need to get you one of those powered grain door opening ones the MN Farmer's got.
$$$$... OL J R :)
MY FAMILY IS FROM PLATTEVILLE WISCONSIN
I was up on my friends farm in Decorah Iowa
In Michigan, field loading allowed you to be up to 10% over.
Thank god the prices are starting to come back.
My family is from Platteville, Platteville is right next to Potosi but i live in Indiana
explain how three farmers share equipment, crop production/mix batches ect, thanks.
There is an Ethanol plant in Monroe. That could be a little closer I enjoy your videos. Stay safe
Old RED needs a nice paint job this winter...
Do you guys plan on upgrading combines at some point?
That's a long haul
dogs are the best. even better riding shotgun!!!!
Saw it a couple videos ago, but did you make an engagement announcement? Congrats anyhow!
Make sure you charge Travis a little extra to get your costs covered!
Ryan have you ever been to the John deer museum in Waterloo ,Iowa
How many crop acres are you guys up to now?
Hey Ryan - what engine and HP does the Red Rig have?
When do they take a sample for moisture and foreign matter? I kept expecting to see it but did not.
During weigh in at every elevator I've ever been at. Later! OL J R :)
When Ryan hits 1 million subscribers he should get a John Deere Tramp Stamp tattoo.
classy! lol
