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.
I must say. You are the original farm videographer on TH-cam. Thank you for leading the way n doing what you do.
I can't believe your combine was able to pick that corn up. Great video. Thanks.
Wow it been 9 years already for Rocket I remember when you got Rocket as puppy. I hope Rocket get to be feeling better soon.
The slow motion clips were really interesting - I'd love to see more of those! Sucks seeing so much downed corn, but at least you're bean fields did really well this year! Hope that it at least keeps you out of the red. Great video as always!
I put some up on my channel last year during harvest... corn going into the auger and into the bin... :) Later! OL J R :)
Enjoyed the video! I appreciate you putting the "personal touch" into the work by taking the time to point out the various interesting aspects of your farms! Keep up the great work!
I was a farmer in the 60s and 70s. If farming was easy everyone would do it. Good luck
No they wouldnt
Shitty lifestyle in the eyes of some.
If being a billionaire was easy people would do that.
Your job was/is important.
But it's not like it's the best job for everyone
How old are you then?
Rocket is a beautiful boy. Hope he feels better soon.
Great Haircut. Super videos. Pushing for mandatory watching by all AG students regardless of where. Lovely to have you address us viewers directly...eye contact...Thanks Ryan. You do a terrific job!
I've got to say, I've admired your drone work for a long time. The movement of the drone and the way it manages the subject of the shot has always been fantastic. Love the music that you tie in with it too. Fabulous job, well done.
Looked like it was a beautiful sunset.
As a kid growing up here in Canada every year went through the fields picking up lost cobbs of corn in the field with 5 gallon pales .Just like you Guys Ryan .Great contents
Boy if you could make a calendar with those drone footage pics for every month you would make a killing. Incredible photos Ryan.
Great video. Really shows how hard it is to pick the many many acres of storm damaged corn 🌽. You can talk about it all you want but seeing it brings it home. Farmers are needing help. Hope it can come. There is an old old saying about growing any crop. It goes,” you never know what a crop will yield until it is in the bin”!! You can add,if the bin is still standing after the storm!!Thanks
the 8r is beautiful
Like the slow mo
Always good when you find your missing bucket in the field
I'd love to see how the newer automated case combines did compared to non-automated ones in the derecho damage.
I will never grow tired of watching your videos, you have some of the best pictures from the drone and just seeing those big green machines working is the best. Thanks Ryan and God Bless you and your family
Full bins at rockville make the viewers happy too👍😁 the down corn looks awful, it's great that your mom helps to pick it😉
Simple corn real, but works pretty well!
Thanks like the video and Drone cam .
Hopefully, you can catch a rest over the winter. Downed corn is headache you didn’t need!
Sorry for the crops man, tough to stay positive! Great work as always
Great to see your are getting thru the corn and the weather looks like it's holding, I appreciate you are disappointed in the yield. Getting whats left in the bin is impt, thanks
Heider wagons. Cool . Made in Carroll, Ia .
“Up close its looks like a meth house” could be the funniest thing you’ve ever said 😂😂😂😂
Combining down corn especially stalks that have been flattened like that is a real chore. Watching so you don’t dig the snouts into the ground and crush them. I had a field like that when I left it until spring to harvest. Got a strong wind and the ground had thawed and it was very wet with some wet snow stuck to the stalks. Pushed the plants right over flat roots and all at least 80% of the field. It was a slow process combing and took lots of concentration.
Hey Ryan!! Hey Rocket!! Get feeling better Rocket.
I’m glad that you guys are nearing the end of harvest!
I’m really sorry about the disappointing yields and the frustration with harvesting down corn. We’ve never dealt with corn down that bad, but I know the mental fatigue that it causes.
Will you guys be receiving some crop insurance payments to help compensate the loss?
Gorgeous weather and photography...great and much needed distraction-Thanks!!

Great video Ryan I remeber when u first built the suke up bin now she full of corn I be scared to walk on the side of the bin lol but u got to get over your fears sometime owe poor rocket I hope hes feeling better and good to see your saveing 85 percent of the corn I remeber quit abit got damaged thumbs up and shared
Hope Rocket is getting better:)
With downed corn you should try a bean head that flexes so you can get closer to the ground although you would have to go much slower!
You need to put more videos out I love watching them!
God bless you guys. The numbers sound similar to other Iowa farmers I follow or watch or what ever to term for subscribers. 🙏for your sweet dog. God bless you all.
At least the corn prices are looking great.
it looks like its not gone amount to anything...OH MY GOD..lol!😂😂😂
Hello from Poland 😉
This year's harvest looks like a nightmare hopefully that wheel is helping u guys out great video as always
Get better Rocket!
You are the star!
You should rake the residue into windrows and run the combine through that to try and recover the stray cobbs.
It's always so nice to watch your videos Ryan. You're explaining so well. And you have Rocket!
We had a storm go threw about 6 or 7 years ago and it was not nice to do . It was pretty much the same. I feel for you guys 🌽👍
great info thanks for sharing
God bless Rocket
Well you can take that off your bucket list
your dad is doing a pretty good job
Look into rotational grazing before you turn your cows out, it'll force them to eat everything in an area otherwise they will only eat a little here and there
It works well but requires a lot more work
Thanks for the cool video! Always love these and look forward to them.
Hey Ryan thanks for the great video, awesome drone footage. I hope Rocket didn’t get a hold of poison from someplace, you might want to consider taking him to the vet 👍
Good job. Hope the pesky stuff stays favorable for yous to finish. That grain carts been handy to. Take care 🏴 👌 👍
BIL had a few spots almost that bad a few years ago after a fierce summer storm right after the corn pollinated... we ended up actually picking cross-wise to the rows, basically running opposite the direction the stalks were laying... or at a slight angle to that... basically it acts like lodged beans where if you can get under them and start them going up into the header, the ones laying over on top of them are raised up and pulled in a LOT better. Seems crazy but can't argue with results... no matter what you do you're gonna lose some when it's on the ground like that, but going crosswise the stalks just slid one way or the other past the points and into the gathering chains and from there they either go through the snapping rolls or break off and go into the auger anyway... Later! OL J R :)
Rocket turned 9! Ha ha ha My male Chihuahua turned 23 last month
Such and awesome drone video beautiful
Sounds like you're running a damn wildlife sanctuary!
Rocket: Sounds like trip to vets for check-up
You need to market the corn as "limited availability derecho corn" - see if you can't make it into a niche market, specialty product...
remember the pet rock, and tumble weed craze in the 1980's? i agree market the "Derecho Corn". as weird as 2020 has been it may work..
Good stuff
Meth house. 🤣🤣
Rayn you really need to update that combine I think a caseih 7150 limited edition would be a perfect fit
The way you capture the footage is awesome, just wished your yields would've been better
Holy buckets! Lol!
I watch these machines harvesting and wonder what Eli Whitney would think if he could see them.
15:00 min 🤣🤣🤣
How much more work next year will you have from the derecho damage? It looks like there is a lot on the ground. Till it into the soil?
Id be courious if a newer combine and corn header would capture more of down corn
feel better, Rocket Dog, some days are like that.....
Ok I got to admit. I love combining corn and filling graincarts! But this looks painful trying to get that flattened corn combined, what a bummer 😕
That was a good yeet. 👌
I was wondering when he was going to fix your home you got a nice place you can really do some things with it I'll wait till you put it on film but yeah I look forward to that for sure got a nice home
Brilliant ☺️
Ryan, I can tell your disappointment in this years yields... Stay positive man, next year will be better. Great video. Thumbs up for ya man!
Yes reals suck driving one way takes lot of hair off the head but better then those do fence it all cattle clean up even after snow plus fert next year stay safe most people are done but always have the few don't know wish ya would say date cause. I know your done ✌
Lol, Rocket sure did jump, he was day dreaming. Hmmmm, nice sloppy boots 🤢🤢. Get well soon Rocket from across the pond. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸
What flattened the crops?
We don't even want to know what was in the bucket 😝
Hello
Wow your a manoutstanding in his field
I love the country jingles you use in your videos, for example the one at 12:45, where do you get them?
Too bad about yield, but the way the corn was down it's good you got that much. Hope the rest of harvest goes good.
You may have talked about this, but do you have insurance on the corn? If so, how do you "prove" what your yield is?
I sympathise with you though not arable we have had similar things happen with the sheep price due to reasons out of our control before as well the number we have had to sell due to being extra picky with any ewes showing the slightest sign of being green mouthed.
Rather frustratingly while from the sound of it prices are poor in the US especially in the Midwest our feed bill for the winter has shot up as we are told £/ton the prices of soya, wheat, maize and rapemeal have all shot up. Some that have been fed about a lb a day are rather mad as they have been cut off.
Might think I’m dumb but what are the black times on the corn heaf
Did you say 24 acres of corn planted?
How much of the corn will settle after if dries
Did you find any difference in varieties for downed corn ???
Ryan, This is Painful for me to watch. The slow progress of your Dad on the combine is gut wrenching. Back when I was a kid, We had corn damage similar to yours and we had to go out and pick all the ears off by hand, Luckily it was just a small area 3 or 4 acres. Grandpa had to save ever bit we could. things where really tight on the farm then. At least your process is a little faster than ours, That was in the 60's. Enjoyed your video.
4:38 2020 Derecho Cab Corn
Did the scale reading on the side of your cart come on there or did u put it on there
oh poor rocket btw is he a full blooded retriver might want to take him to the vet could be serious mine looked just like him and he developed an invection in the digestive system with meds it cleared up in a few days get well rocket i miss you
Hanna could say Hi sometime! I sure would love to walk and get squirl corn. Here in Peoria,il.
All that matters is that you have a roof over your head ryan don't matter what it looks like
Pay some kids to pick up corn from the field. Tell them there is a $20 Bill attached to some of them to provide incentive.
Do current corn prices reflect the Derecho event?
What song is this? and great vid btw!
I hope Rockets get better
"Sell April, 142."
why not go with the down corn , slide it it?
Another great video...what tune did you use during the video
When the reel isn't needed do you just speed up or shut it off?
