    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.

    Loved the drone shots of the valley. Really shows how close to the river the land is. Travis talks about it but its hard to see. Now please show the hills and slopes he talks about.
    Glad to see you continuing your partnership with Kuhn.

    I remember a few times on the farm putting fresh cut hay in the feeding trough for the heifers and they went after it like kids let loose into a candy store with a pocket full of money.
    My family farmed 500 acres in southeast Minnesota up into 1981 when my parents divorced. We had about 300 cattle and milked around 175 cows at a time. My dad had been on the Minnesota Dairy Promotion Board and spoke at many of them. He attended multiple Republican $1000 to $5000 a plate dinners including one at which he sat back to back with then President Ford.

    I live in Australia, in the state of Victoria, I am now a retired Dairy farmer and I use to Wrap all my silage and I only made hay from November and December, I did the same with Lercerne [Alpha ]. Good to see you and Hanna changing the mower knives.

    Love the 🦌 nothing runs like a deer. 🚜
    Having a second mower even demo one boy it speeds things up. Two mowers two barriers, one hay wrapper. Smart for your operation.

    Beautiful, Rich Crop of hay❣️❣️Really enjoyed seeing a field it looks so lovely in fact the best I seen this year!! You have a very nice farm and I enjoyed this video❣️❣️ Especially enjoyed your life changing out the blades and well done job!!I’m not a women’s liver but I’m all for women’s rights and proving that we’re just as capable as possible. I grew up on a farm and I was short and petite and I spent my whole life proving how tough I was. One of the happiest days of my life was the day and my father said he would rather work with me any day of the week and my brothers not only because I was a good worker but because I anticipated what needed to be done before He had to ask and also I didn’t waste any time when we were working😊☺️ that was a good cook and Baker in the house but I loved being outside with my father and I miss him terribly. This was my first time seeing your video and I will be much interested in following him in the future!!💕 God bless you both and take care.. May all your dreams come true!!!!!

    Like how well your intern catches on, maybe in the future years she can do a video of you (the intern) changing a diaper! Mowing hay with a discbine has to be the least stressful tractor driving as long as the fawns stay out of the hayfield.

    Finding a good woman can be hard. I was lucky on the first real try. I found her sitting under an apple in blue jeans, work shirt and barefoot reading a book when I went to look at a horse trailer. Our mothers warned us that we wouldn't last a year. I wish they were still alive. My wife and I talk to each other and we know how the other thinks. A big limit for my wife is she's deaf. We've had some hard times. One was when I went to Desert Storm and second was when our daughter went to Iraq for a year. I enjoy your site, thank you for all the hard work. We just celebrated our 49th wedding anniversary

    Another well shot 'hay' video...awesome camera angles. I loved the high altitude drone footage. You could just fly the drone for an hour and post that video and I would watch that with some banjo music. it is mesmerizing to see grass on one side and 'hay' on the other. But I like to mow the lawn.

    Buying a bale wrapper is a great idea, next thing I'd say would be worth buying is a self loading bale wagon after all you save alot of time and money with only needing one person to haul bales from feild to farm....

    • @GoldPicard
      @GoldPicard 2 роки тому

      Be a good idea for a demo definitely, because there are a lot of additional maintenance costs and tasks with one of those self-loading and stacking tools. But they definitely are a useful tool but a demo would definitely help Ryan see if it's worth the costs.

We bought a new self propelled windrower years back and the first set of knives lasted about 250 engine hours before we put new ones on. Didn't even flip them till 150 hours and then we did some custom work and found some rocks that shorted there life spam.
