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 RU-vid 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.

I’ve been watching for at least 2 years or so. Definitely through all of the 2019 season. And at least during harvest of 2018. Glad to see that despite what is going on in the world that 2020 is treating you a little bit better than 2019 did.

@johneastmond9092 4 года назад

Was thinking the same thing about the 4640 being a perfect tractor for that mower.

@HowFarmsWork 4 года назад

We were worried it was going to be a little too much tractor for the mower, but it seemed to run it very well!

@johneastmond9092 4 года назад

If you weren't careful maybe you'd over power the hitch gearbox on start up. But you ran it up a little at a time. Seems perfect!

@lifeoutdoorseveryday1682 4 года назад

Pretty sure I’ve been watching since 2015. I’ve watched almost every video. I want to be a farmer eventually, so you continue to motivate and inspire me. You need to do a “How To” video, for how to back up wagons. I’m terrible at it, and need some tips and tricks.

@robertstibz9506 4 года назад

At 64yrs of age I've seen some grass cut, that type of mower was once popular for a while in the Uk, now its not used as much. I'll put a link to the popular types of Khun mowers in the uk in 2020, btw Ryan, flail mowers not great for grass if you want it to come back growing quicker, the flails smash the grass storks and they DO NOT come back growing as quick as if cut with a blade. Popular Khum mowers, easy to turn with and transport & use. www.kuhn.co.uk/uk/range/hay-silage-making/mowers.html

@nicholashubbard9026 4 года назад

The other mower uses blades to cut with but have a flail conditioner on it. It’s not a flail mower

@robertstibz9506 4 года назад

Yeh i understand that. When i mentioned flail mower. I was refering to those with the flail/blade on the end of a short chain type link. They really hurt the regrowth. Not a clean cut like the mower Ryan used.

Been following since 2007 when you posted the video where you said your family will never quit farming, in the past 3 years I’ve bought land and have converted from tobacco field to pasture, bought few cows 2 years ago just had 2 angus calves waiting on a baldie, hoping to get a heifer calve so I can hold on to her and build up from my own stock, learned a lot from y’all over the years thanks for going through all the trouble of filming and editing to shed light on a way of life that doesn’t get shown unless you’re really born into it leading so many not to understand the farming life, thanks brother

@Well_I_am_just_saying 4 года назад

It seems as if a narrow windrow would be better for drying. That way you are not running over it with the tractor tires and pushing it on to the damp ground. And the narrow windrow gets it up off the ground so that the air can flow through it better.

@donaldharris3274 4 года назад

Been watching for about 3 years I like the demos keep up the good work trying for a hat

@HowFarmsWork 4 года назад

I do regret laying it as wide, not so much due to drying since it dried very well, but because I couldn't hit it pass for pass with the pickup of the merger.

I've watched and commented off and on since your small square baler video many years ago. I cut with a 4840, basically the same tractor as a 4640, except all 4840s are powershifts, have a bigger fuel tank, and a bigger injection pump. My mower is a Gehl 2415. Good match. I totally agree with a center pivot, Swivel hitch is as important.

@rickduquette3399 4 года назад

That new mower sure does one heck of a job. Did you find that it made for a quicker job of harvesting your crops? And by the way what happened to your "Intern"?? You didn't have to let her go, did you? Sure hope not as she brought some beauty to your video's. The drone shots are pretty cool, it gives us viewers a different view of "How Farms Work". Wow-what a great name for your video. Feel free to use it, but only if you really want to. Just pulling your leg. Ha, Ha, Ha.

@travelocity1477 4 года назад

You guys should try a self propelled haybine. On our farm we use an older New Holland 1495 and a newer New Holland HW300. We like them because they use barely any fuel and we don't run over our windrows with them. It also make the cutting go way faster. You guys should try one sometime.

@Fisha695 4 года назад

Grew up in a rural area around farming but never had the chance to farm myself, a handful of years ago I ended up buying Farm Sim 15 (it was the platinum edition so like 2016) and shortly after I got the game and started to search RU-vid for tips and tricks I ended up finding your channel as well as a few others and now it's grown to me watching more RU-vid (mostly farming, a few others also) than I do actual TV lol.

@eddeetz493 4 года назад

I remember the 50,000 party. I hope you get a 10% mower credit with each referral sale. Best Marketing using a implement demonstration on a familiar farm. I watch to learn what I didnt know except throwing idiot blocks and cleaning barns with a fork and wheelbarrow. Watching no touch haymaking is a hoot. Thank you..

@Mikes_Repair 4 года назад

Nice to see the 4640 working. If I cut at 1 1/2" I don't think I would have much for blades left. I'd rather cut a inch or two higher and keep my blades in good shape. here in central MN the rocks seem to heeve higher Evey year. Been watching for years and enjoy your content. Keep on pushing!

You have contributed so much to understanding the complexities of the farming community. You demonstrate the "hey, they just put a seed in the dirt and watch it grow" exhibits pure ignorance.

@chevyon37s 4 года назад

Why mow directly behind the tractor cutting your outside round? It doesn’t pick up where your tractor tires smash the crop down very well.... Coming back the opposite way picks up the crop that you smash down.

@LtColDaddy71 3 года назад

The problem with the equipment now is everything tries to tighten up into a windrow too much, and what that plant needs is sunlight after it's cut, so that it opens up and dries down without losing so much of it's nutritional value. Then you're buying supplements. It's like we're too smart for our own good. That one seemed OK though. If you can just keep 70% spread out, you'll get a lot better product.

I also like how the new machinery has upgraded, its like why didn't they have that when I was in farming. Keep the videos coming.

I think I have been watching for the last 3-4 months. I am an old retired guy and worked on our farm back when i was a teenager through my twenties and then got a job working for a large nation wide company. I am from northern Oklahoma and was an operations manager for a nation wide parking company. Texas for 16 years. I miss driving a tractor plowing the fields etc. Back when I was a kid, we did not know how to farm, no til and wish we did. Our relation and my Step dad played in cattle and we raised crops for feed. Love your videos!

Farm sale line up was the first video I watched on your channel. I remember thinking, this is sad to watch a farm being sold piece by piece. Looking back, that was just the darkness before the dawn. You guys have grown a lot since then.

@nielsdybro9759 4 года назад

I have been subscribing to your channel since well before you hit 100k subscribers. Will you be testing the hay made using the Kuhn mower and the merger for ash content, compared to using the on farm mower and wheel rake? - It would be interesting to see what difference it makes on ash content in the hay bales, especially merger v/s wheel rake.

If you want a good comparison, put the deere flails and the Kuhn rollers in the same material. See which one dries faster. I've had nothing but roller conditioning and cut heavy fescue. I can usually cut one day and bale the next.
