CURRENT SCHEDULE
Expect a new video every Sunday and Wednesday 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.

That Kuhn does nice job. Every bale looks tight and nice square edges.
Definitely a great baler to have and always love seeing the bale wrapper in action
LOVED the overhead drone shots at night at 14:29
You guys are so efficient doing that operation, You work well together.
Hey Ryan trying to beat the the rain can be very hard especially in your field of work.I hope you get a good night rest.
Another great vid Ryan,/Hannah 👌 👏 nice seeing the tubeliner doing what it does best and you keeping the lines straight ish 😊.. stay safe 🏴
Nice to see how you got them done also definitely have a video of the difference in the cut to uncut
Great video and drone footage as always Ryan. Looks like the Kuhn Baler does an excellent job 👍
awsome video ryan love the late night clips thumbs up and shared
Thanks Ryan. 'Back in the day' we used to blow our bedding fodder into a huge pile then use a manure spreader to bed the barns.
Thanks for another great video Ryan. As always, entertaining and well-done.
The bales will sweat, anyhow. You may get a green slime on the outside, which is really nice when you take the netwrap off😝, but inside will be fine. Cows are going to nibble on it some, and putting the knives up really will help you get the most from the stalks. Great video!
The fodder bales look very nice😉👍 the night shots are cool👍😃
Thanks for the awesome video👍👍
you guys did the right choice about wrapping it
See you next time Ryan the guys .
Hiya Ryan! I love your videos. You're by far my favorite farming UA-camr. I've always been curious, how many hours a night sleep do you average during harvest? I'm a retired trucker, so I'm used to not sleeping, but the hours you guys put in is just amazing. Be well!
Great Video Ryan, Interesting process, thanks for sharing
Another great video. You guys all work for together
I’ve watched how farms work for a long time and enjoyed it. But kind of steered away when 90% of the videos became B roll
Love the music with ur video’s keep them coming please
Great video
Great video Ryan! Thank you!
So beautiful
Mighty job Everybody, hope it all works out when Ye open them up 🤞👌👍🙏🙂
Hey Ryan!!!
Thats 100 tons of dry bedding/feed put up in a day. I hope the mollases test on 50 bales for feed pays additional dividends. That kuhn with knives sure rolls out a pretty bale. ? With the foundation on the old barn, can a pit be built under the old free stall barn roof after removal of the first floor concrete and the side walls are shored up? It would be great to recycle and feed is in the yard. Big Amish job. Good reason to add a rock breaker attachment. Save back your hardwood saw logs for a future farm event. The local dealer will jump at the opportunity to demo a saw mill and you get the timbers and lumber to build with from the farm. OLF stores his cut wood in the dairy barn. All you need is a pallet jack and we all know how dam hot a hay loft is all summer. Natural kiln.
Some time when you get a chance can you educate us on the preventive maintenance that is needed for farm equipment (i.e. tractors, balers, combines, planters,etc.)
U r gonna need a bigger tractor cab if U keep adding family! LOL
Have you thought about experimenting with the colour as some seem to swear by white and green as it keeps it cooler while others swear by the black wrap as they feel the heat helps the ensiling process.
The biggest issue we find is quality as one of the more common wraps here that is usually green we find tends to split and or go holey when flattens while the premium manufacturer branded (JD, CNH etc) wrap that is normally black doesn't.
Using knives = increasing surface area of bedding = more absorbant, easier to feed

Maybe it's just the camera but they look like baby bales. I would love to batwing the corn stalk but don't want to take that much of the stalks. We use a Vermeer 605N corn stalk special and do about 2500 bales a year. The bales will weigh from 1500lbs to 2000 lbs. We have just raked the stalks with the rake set as light as we can to leave as much of the stalk as we can. I don't mind if they are a little damp as we tub grind most of them for feed and if they are just right they will install kind of like silage makes great feet for cows.
Love the drone shots do you own that Kuhn wrapper
The knives will help after all with hay it was 260lbs difference between cut and uncut bales. I personally think the savings will help but if ya did custom baling I think ya see how big of a difference the knives really make
Good stuff
Good content. 👍
Have you ever tried baling bean stalk stubble for bedding it works just as good as corn fodder
No, they say that baling soybean fodder removes a ton of nutrients
Esa maquina de empaquetado es una maravilla! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏼🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🇦🇷
How hard are they to work on and maintain? Thanks
How much is a roll of the write wrapping material and how many bales will 1 roll do?
Why do you make them so small? Can't you bale a 6 foot roll? Is it because the skid loaders want handle a 6 foot roll?
60” fit well into the wrapper without risk of breaking the seal
2nd comment it will do
I do know one thing, It is a Damn Shame all that wasted Farm Land used on Solar Panels. Everytime I see it in your video's It kinda makes me sick. Enjoyed your video, Thanks for sharing.
Is the speed adjustable on the wrapper? Seems like the idle could be raised?
Hey Ryan, are the front tires toed out a bit on that tractor?
Did you say you had to move bales out to Hannah's place?
I know you have a thing with kuhn but do ye not have mchale in your area
Are you going to buy the Kuhn mower or wrapper?
Hi Ryan and Hannah I wach all of your videos I do love farming but my hip doesn't like it no more and I am only 31
Hmmmm 🤫 Gee, I wonder if it works on leaves?
I’m not really familiar with corn fodder, so is it just used for feed or bedding?
The cattle do eat some as food so guess you can call it fodder versus bedding.
Depends on several things. Totally dry is mainly bedding, no palatability. 60%+ moisture is almost silage, but mainly fiber unless you add ammonia at wrapping. All bales are feed if molasses is added and allowed to soak in, but feed value is low, but better than snowballs. Great question 👍

Hi 0:23
Call me stupid, but why are you wrapping something used for bedding?
You are not stupid. Wrapping is to prevent rain and snow from saturating into the bales and losing 15%+ in the first year. Almost a disposable shed, in a way. Great question!
Hey Ryan, Hannah, Dad and Travis and the 2 managers. Ryan that is a good deal putting the knives in but what happens to the ears of corn when they hit the knives? Does it shell the corn or do they turn sideways and go on through? I know the ears of corn is the main reason the cows go through the fodder is to find the corn. And yes the Kuster's are a well oiled machine that really work very well together. OK I want make this long. Take care, Take it easy and TRUST JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Corn was combined before baling.
Yes Sir but I have heard Ryan and Travis doing cattle video's and saying the cows are going thru and looking for corn. Maybe the new combine gets 100% of the corn and their is no corn what so ever. Thank you for your input Sir.@@MorganOtt-ne1qj
@@larrysheriff8251 👍 No combine gets 100%, but the lost stuff usually hits the ground. But stalks smell like corn, especially after wrapping them.
Fodder, that's what comes out of a politicans mouth.
No, 💩 is.
