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 TH-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.
Ryan i will have to agree with some others that have commented , u do look happier with Hannah , she is a farm girl for sure , think u found a keeper
8:45 Really good camera work to show us the seed going down the tube. Thanks.
That was Hannah’s shot! She did a good job!
@@HowFarmsWork Great work, Hannah!!! OL J R :)
Hannah is Awesome!
Thanks for another fine HFW video. I enjoy watching you & Hanna interacting with the farm work. She is a Keeper!
Nice job on the video Ryan and Hannah! Definitely more interesting with both your input. Rocket is the chaperone on the 🚜. Who would have thought Hannah’s hair would be so long! Those HFW hoodies cover a lot!
Love how you had the Manger and the intern in the cab at the same time. You watch the video and look at where her eyes are most of the time while in the buddy seat! :) You look great together. :)
Love to see how the grass is coming up, maybee a time lapse or just some video.
Yet again....another great video. Love ur choice of music for the drone shots. Very tasteful. Awsome job ryan
I had a farmer tell me years ago,it always takes a little more seed than you expect,by a bag or two,so good job.
They hugged!!!!!!❤
Glad you got Hanna seem like she is a very good hand and very nice lady
Thanks Hannah! Your hair is really nice! I knew you had a good part covered up. :)
Enjoyed the video .... Hannah letting her hair down, go girl ... all the best from west central Arkansas!
Great video, don't care how many ads, if it helps you, it's all good !!!
Pray. I like that idea Hannah.
I don't think I had any adds. Hope you have better success with your hay this year than you did last year.
Ryan you and Hannah are a great couple very happy together ❤
Nice drone flying.
Great work bro
I need to hire Hannah! She would work circles around our hired hands!
Great video keep up the great Content
Hey Rocket & Ryan! I use @Sharpie Paint Pens to mark rotation directions, on & off positions, and hidden latches. Works super for me.
A couple that farms together, stays together!
Farming is one big science experiment.
Now I’ve never ran a drill but am I the only one who thinks that one is way more complicated than it should be?
Ain’t new love grand? You two look great together!
I hope you have betterluck with alfalfa on alfafa notill. We tried it one year and it didnt seem to help, but we sprayed our alfalfa and our agronmist said it was due to autotoxicity.
You're a whole new Ryan! I am liking what I have been seeing. Keep up the content.
Nice…….. Your intern gives hugs!
And points for the dragon ball Z super sayin reference. Admittedly I’ve been playing the old video games for that lately
For those that watched until the end, how many ads did you see in the middle of this video?
How Farms Work
Didn’t have a single add throughout the video. Watching from Sweden. Nice video by the way, keep up and all the best for the season. Stay safe.
None
I had 4 ads pop up
1 twords the end
None now I come to think about it. Witch is kinda unusual. Normally there is one with this videolenght
That hug you gave Hannah made me so happy. I know she's crazy in love with you, nice to see it coming from you.
thanks for this good video!:) what happend to your old alfalfa field? Did you chisel it?
16oz in 1lb. Divide your ounces by 16 and you'll have it.
Well If Rocket is out to Micromanage you... I could live with that..At least he does it from a down on the floor position..Olga My Micromanager always wanted to be in my lap while in the tractor.. And it is hard to drive with a St.Bernard in your lap
@Acer Acres My Poor Olga was a rescue from another farm where she was not treated that well. I got her at 2 yrs of age when I was a kid.. She was afraid of trucks and tractors and yet did not want to be alone when I was at work or when I was at school. So she would climb up in the cab and at first sit in the buddy seat then lean against me and then try to get into my lap to be cuddled and to protect me from the nasty tractor...in the house God help me if there was a thunder/lightening storm.. Under the covers on the bed in a heart beat and if I wasn't there she would swarm my Mom and lay on her on the couch...
Cobambam bambam 😂😂😂😂 well said sir. Not an ideal lapdog no.😂
Great video!!! What was Headband Hannah singing? 😀
I hope your paying that young lady a good wage cause she is worth it !!!!! Great help with positive/fun attitude is hard to come by
youtube premium no adds
Hello Ryan & Hannah great video may ask were do you get your music from?
Seeding feed for the cows👍
I thought that the marker disc on the drill, marked where the middle of the tractor should be when you made the next pass. It seemed to me that scratch mark was closer to the wheels than the middle. Am I missing something? Thanks.
Hey Ryan!! Hey Hannah!! Hey Rocket!! Did I see someone driving the truck???? Lol
Darrin Lull hey Darrin! Yep! That might’ve been me 🤫
Don't you guys have the Wheelman Pro? Or was that just a demo thing? Or do you just not want to use it?
How many hours on the tractor? Nice video
"You know the drill" 😂
Siri has all the answers even when you get her 😡 mad 😂
Hannah Rocks... and Hard working. 😁 You to Ryan.
My dad always said one gets more seed in a crooked row than a straight row.
I thought you had gone for a quarantine ponytail and brill cream then realised it was your cap I am taking it as a sign I need sleep.
How old is rocket and his he a golden retriever? He’s a cute boy
Great vid guys thanks.. I got 4 ads..
Dang! Way too many. That’s why I don’t let TH-cam usually choose placements but that’s what they’re pushing for
@@HowFarmsWork Its ok Ryan it doesn't bother me if it helps you out i'm ok with that.. Take care and stay safe. And keep them coming..
Ryan I think Hannah gonna keep you on your toes most of the time
It doesn't look like you are driving down the center of the marker with the tractor. You would be over lapping, right??
For new seeding of alfalfa don't you normally put down 20 to 22 .lbs
Hello
I’m ready for hay
Nice job getting it all seeded down. I'm not sure that I'll ever buy the idea of Hannah as a "damsel in distress". She's way too handy around the farm for that. Now,, to wait until the seed germinates and sprouts. Thanks for the video!
I don't see why you didn't find out what the ounces was to pounds then aim for that instead of calculating each time. You could then just do it backwards, find out what the weight should be in the bowl and only have to calculate once.
for you to use alfalfa?
Someone is missing their Tupperware and someone is in trouble.
What are headlands?
Headlands are the area where u turn around at the end of the field, where u see him pickup the unit and turn the tractor
The only was at the beginning
can you plant soy beans and corn with that planter also?
You could plant soybeans with it if you wanted! We use the corn planter which is a lot faster
No not the right kind of meters for singulating and planting corn seed. Plus the row spacing are wrong (well, unless you turned off 3 and then left one open all the way across) to get 30 inch rows. Plus it's only 10 feet wide so *maybe* you'd get 3-4 rows out of it... Corn needs to be planted ONE SEED AT A TIME, VERY PRECISELY SPACED OUT and at a CONSISTENT DEPTH AS POSSIBLE... A drill like this is meant to seed crops not sensitive to spacing and are planted at very high seeding rates, corn is the opposite of both of these factors. Later! OL J R :)
Will that drill plant soybeans?
Holy long hair
I am a farmer from the country of Morocco, is it welcome?
Happy you have joined us here. What type of crops do you grow in Morocco?
I think she is learning and liking more working on the farm with someone she likes being around, I think she likes fitting in with your family, Travis even cuts up with her. She helped Brittney give you a hair cut, with Dog Shears. LOLOL The proof of life photos are on IG.
Safe comment
Wait she’s driving the truck. Don’t you think your moving a little to fast😉
Wil Bontrager I was thinking the same thing . That truck is a tank lol
@America heck I've been married for almost 4 years and together for almost 6 and I still don't like when she has to drive my truck lol.
Good thing I know what I’m doing boys 😉😊
It's hard not to make fun of the imperial system when you see somebody who uses it a lot struggle to convert from one unit to another. Have you ever thought about switching to metric for stuff like weight and volume, or is that just too hard to do with everything only being specced in imperial units?
nice you have a smart strong farm lady on your side youtube boy you need it take care of here
None here in N.C. .....
Saw 3 commercials.
What type of John Deere
7600
Where’s Rocket?
Is it just me or does that Seadrill seem overly complicated?
Doesn't Hannah have her own family farm to help out on?
Andrey Kuznetsov yea I do. I’m at home working during the week and I go to their place to help out on weekends.
@@hannahsmith239 Sounds great, happy weekends!
Long hair and moving parts are dangerous combination so be careful Ryan, your getting a little shaggy.
Why such a small seeder
It's one of the sizes Kuhn makes. It's actually serial number 1 and it's the drill Kuhn was talking to farm shows last year. Now their using it for field demos. Besides for the amount they seed they really don't need anything bigger.
@Acer Acres I believe Travis is the one that said drills are a controlled dump and they prefer the accuracy of the planter better and with the wider rows there is less problems with white mold.
Also companies only demo certain equipment and sizes or else everyone would be trying 9rs and 60+ ft drills or 36 row planters. You get what's available and then purchase the size you need.
@BBDcummins yeah
Ryan there are only 16 oz to a pound. I am shocked that you didn't try to finish your seed out by trying to split the rows. 6 commercials watched
Your seed boxes are getting low because your seeder is working ;).
Id would take the halt of the time,to calibrate the seeder if you would use the Metric system lol
@@earlgunman6325 Yeah and everyone else that is not stuck in the 19th century
@@Nikeceee So, because everyone else is doing it? That's your argument? I don't know if you realize this or not, but the US is kind of known for doing our own thing. We don't give a shit how it's done anywhere else. We'll keep our freedom units, you can keep your communism.
@@earlgunman6325 Everyone else is doing it because it makes sense. US is using freedom units because tradition? And yes you can keep your freedom units but you should really read more about metric system and ''our'' communism.. (hint=no connection)
@Acer Acres Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, is it skippy? I never said that the metric system is communist. I simply said that you can keep your communism...or socialism, aristocracy, religious oligarchy, or whatever other bullshit form of government the shit hole country that you live in decides to rule over you with. You can keep that shit and your metric system. I know there was a few big words in there, take your time and read it multiple times if you must. There's no shame in it, you simple bastard.
@Acer Acres Lol, and yet, hundreds of thousands of people risk death trying to sneak into my shit hole country. The fact that you're even watching this channel says enough. I promise, I'm not watching any content from your country. I don't give a shit what some dumb little list says, I guarantee that you have or have had a desire to come here at some point. I promise that I've never wanted to go to your country...and probably not many people will. That's just the way it is.
Put a ring on that finger! A good woman will work side by side with her man. She seems like a good one!!!
Hannah, you look gorgeous with your long hair down. Hint from an older guy.
1st
Hannah has some long head hair - down to the middle of her back
I agree with you there, Donald! I used to have hair that went below the waist line, but had it cut shoulder length and I really enjoyed donating it to the Wigs For Kids Foundation! I won't go through Locks Of Love anymore!
@@kristenscott9438 Why is that?? Just curious. Years ago when I was driving a bus, I had a really sweet kid who had hair down past her waist and she donated it to locks of love. I'd never heard of them before but I thought it was a great idea... OL J R :)
This drill appears to be quite old school to be a brand new unit. No automation. It doesn’t have any of the new tech that everyone is starting to utilize in planters.
Man I hate to say it but that Kuhn seems overly complicated! Ya got give it brain surgery before you can use it. Not the most efficient process! great content though as always! Keep it up!
Gosh, it seems like a lot of steps and monkey work for such a modern, hi tech machine. Agree/disagree?
maybe Frank but since this is all new to them , once they have the numbers and settings done , they will not have to do it again , as long as they are using the same seed
Maybe if everybody uses a metric sistem... To many conversions, factions, etc...
@America, Agree, NO to metric.
Yeah, I could've spread that little amount of seed in 30 minutes with my 4 wheeler spreader.
Doesn't it he,p not having any electronics to hook up or fiddle with. Just set it and forget it
Ryan I would tell Hannah to not give up her daytime job lol
Rob Hakeman haha good thing my day job is working with him 😂
Hannah Smith I always thought you two would make a good pair from the 1st day of intern. I sure want to meet you all some time.
U guys should get married
Is she the intern or the girl friend?

Whats the advantage to wearing your hat backwards ?
She put it on me
If she put your pants and shirt on backwards, would you wear them like that too ?
If she put your pants and shirt on backwards, would you wear them like that too ?
Absolutely!
Does the hat say "whipped", lol.
Is Hannah still just an Intern or, Slave Labor. You Man, Claimed female, Hannah. Tell woman what to do and she DO IT. Load Seed into Seed HOPPER, Hop To IT, NOW, please?
