- We start baling with both balers! The moisture came in over 30%, but we'll be wrapping the hay so it should preserve the quality!

Summer Schedule
Expect a new video every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday! (Schedule May Vary)
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.

LOL! "We got a runner!" Nice catch!
I greatly appreciate you speaking directly into the camera. Well done again Ryan.
Thanks for the update Ryan looks to me like the Kuhn Baler is doing an awesome job 👍
Sharp looking bailer I got a good laugh when u were chasing the run away bail
Good luck with the valley. Rained in So Cal this week. Good luck with the dry down weather, baling and grain harvest.
Excellent visuals. Thank you
Love making hay. That Khun looks like a nice unit. I have been a fan of Vermeer for a long time. Guys I worked for in the mid 2000s ran them and were a dealer. We would pushout 150 to 200 bales per day per baler. When we hit flax straw, they were pushing 6.5 to 7 feet tall and would need a hammer to drive a probe in! They made high moisture hayledge and wrapped it. From the time the bale dropped to wrapped was no more than 1.5 hours. Making hay was an all hands on deck venture, usually 7 to 9 people, but it was fun!
That baler is really nice👍😁 hopefully the weather will be good so you can get the valley made😉👍
Hey Ryan!! The 82 is a pretty good match for the Kuhn.
Great job Ryan and Travis:):)
Great How Farms Work Video, thanks for sharing
nice video and good catch on that runaway
Ryan I never knew that somebody could get the bail of hay like that that's pretty good my friend you're pretty fast when you want to catch a bail of hay don't you have a good day Ryan God bless🙏🚜
Looked like a roller not a runner, it was kinda funny to watch. Love your videos.
Great catch
Enjoy the videos!
I run a Vermeer 605 Super M.
The whole Bale is solid. 2000#.
Baler weighs 8700#. Built tough.
sorry yo hear about the smoke slowing your hay drying. We are closer to the source of the smoke and having the same problem drying our grapes into raisins. same mess last year hen one of the fires was only 30 miles away. really like your videos.
Great camera footage from the drone
I am so amazed at how quick that gate closes.
Six second cycle time!
Nice hay well done brother
I've learned a lot about farming form watching your videos and from other farming channels. I would like to actually do some of this work with you and get a hands-on perspective. I think that'll be a great thing to accomplish.
awsome video ryan its a good thing you got some help to make these bales together because it wood take along time for one person to do all of that but it all depends on everything thought too thumbs up and shared
In the opening scene I thought the Honda 4wheeler was hooked up to the grain cart. Lol
Wrapped hay is definitely the way to go, more palatable and better fresher quality and less protein loss. Wetter hay keeps leaves better
Good job catching the bale. If you missed it would have gone a long way.
That's almost a wrap in the 2021 hay season. 😀
Super nice wk 👍👍👍👍
Good evening Ryan. That kuhn baler is great, the control monitor is well laid out. I would guess about 1800 pounds per bale that was packed tight.
We used to make 970 kg round bales with the Krone Bellima and a 90 HP tractor.Our Kuhn on the other hand required the 200 HP McComick for a lighter bale.Needless to say we got rid of the Kuhn and replaced it with another Krone baler
Looks like you have fallen in love with that Kuhn baler. Doing a great job as far as I can see.
The bale total is coming up greater than last time so that's good.
Take care.
Rockets getting older, poor fella….
Lucky catch! Who says field work is boring. 🤣
Make sure you add "wRapper" to your resume.
I think the Kuhn would be a good investment.
You got Travis convinced yet that he needs to trade green for a Kuhn Baler? Always cool seeing you guys run side by side
He hasn't asked to run it, probably to resist temptation lol
Dry?!?! Cant wait to see you paint moist 🤣 🤣
More tension on the net will firm up the outer layers. My mchale they take the outer knives out for a better sidewall. If your not plastic wrapping that is. Nice baler though!
Oh no! Runaway round bail! 😳😬😄. Any you guys shout out LAST ROUND BALE!!
My guess is around 20% moisture. There was some dust but it wasnt necessarily pulling the crop into the pickup ahead of the pickup. It's a shame they didn't let you try a silage special. Since you have the wrapper you could of wet baled that at about 50% moisture and really would of had some nice feed for the cows. Maybe next year right.
Age gap between those balers is still smaller than the price gap. 🥴
But it shure packs alot more in the bale.
That Kuhn eats hay and makes a real ice bale. Got a guess on how much ho you were using to run like?
Nice bales, but damn if the old JD steel paneled baler doesn’t look tons better than the modern plastic blob baler.
Hey Ryan I think you guys need that John Deere baler from Sonne Farms use.
I can't help but think the bales would roll off that accumulator in a heartbeat on our hills
@@HowFarmsWork u probably right. It would be nice behind the 82
Have you guy thought about replacing the Deere baler with this new Kuhn baler?
I'm curious which baler picks up the hay off the ground better. Does one leave more hay on the ground after it passes?
They pick up the hay the same, they both use teeth on the pickups
Ryan ..can you possible explain . Why your farm chooses the round bales vs the small to larger square bales??
Large square balers are expensive, and rounds keep better outdoors
Small squares are mainly for horses and small livestock operations, or larger ones with the means to handle and feed them mechanically. You either need a lot of labor or you need bale accumulators/sledges and grapples to load and handle the small squares and they all must be stored indoors to keep and not rot. Just not worth the trouble for most guys, unless they're selling hay retail to small buyers or auctions or something like that. Big squares are great for long distance transport, but the balers are VERY heavy and VERY expensive and take a LOT of horsepower to run them. The bales are dense but being square they either have to be stored indoors in a barn, wrapped in plastic, or stacked and tarped securely to protect them from the weather or they'll rot and deteriorate badly.
Round bales shed water off the rounded sides of the bales pretty efficiently (like the old "thatch roofs" that were made out of palm fronds or grass-- the grass sheds the rain water from leaf to leaf and stem to stem til it drips off onto the ground-- so long as the hay is fairly fine stemmed/long leafed it can shed water quite well-- hay that is coarser and stemmier or has broad leaves like legumes doesn't shed water as well and you get more infiltration into the bales stored outdoors). Round balers are cheaper to buy than large square balers and don't require anywhere near as much horsepower to operate, and they're a good match of capacity and ease of handling, more like large square bales than small square bales. Rounds, like large squares, are easily moved and stacked with hay forks or spears but don't transport as tightly or as well as large squares (the big squares fit on a truck better).
Some of the pros/cons of each type of bale... later! OL J R : )
Travis is the farm manager
Cool baler why are you wrapping it?
No shed space and they'll last much longer if wrapped
Can you turn up the pressure on the John Deere to get the same bale as the Kuhn
It’s pretty well all the way up
A newer Deere baler blows the Kuhn away. We run a 569 silage special and I would put money on it makes a better bale. We’re nowhere close to having the pressure turned up high on it and it makes a very tight and heavy for diameter bale if we want to. We leave ours slightly less dense now that we mix the hay.
@@chevyon37s ya ok kid
How many round bales of hay do your cows eat in a year?
Nice video Ryan, you should compare the kuhn to a new Deere and a Krone to make a good comparison and will also make for some nicer video's. Demo some other brands then just Kuhn.
Gotta have manufacturers willing to bring them stuff for free to use... Krone let them demo a baler a few years back. OL J R :)
Where’s the Lucky lady
Did you change all 4 tires on the 8235R?
We haven't changed any recently
I remember them being quite worn out but in this video those threads somehow look quite sharp and deep so I thought may be you have changed them. Oh boy, what an expense that would have been 😱
Should be ok lots of dust when baling
Is therea job in the company👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😢😢😢😢😢😢
I like the kuhn baler but Id put money on new deere baler with pluse2 accumulator after all why drop a single bale when ya can drop 3 at a time
Its called compaction kid thinks about it
I saw where Vermeer has a continuous running baler where you don't need to stop to eject. Many brand feature varieties to suit any need on the market. I wonder which saves more time if time is a factor to do any given field until the hay all leaves the field? I lean toward the accumulator apart from any internal baler features.
@Acer Acres
I didn't know that. I was only speaking ideas and not necessarily brands. No doubt Krone makes a quality product. With the pre-packer as you say it appears a lot to go wrong compared to a regular baler.
Oh, the pain in the back, shoulder, leg, and rear end for bouncing in those tractor seats. just saying
LOL!
LOL CHASING THE BALE ARE YOU SURE YOUARE BALING THE “GRASS” OR SMOKING IT. LOL THINK YOU AND THE MANAGER NEED TO SPEND A DAY ON YOUR BOAT SOAKING IN THE LAST DAYS OF SUMMER.
You need Hannah to manage you
Get rid of the jd baler keel the khune
Those bales are bloody awful
YEAH WHY DON’T YOU REMOVE YOUR SHOW OFF MY YO TU STATION BECAUSE I’M NOT SUBSCRIBED TO YOU. WHY DON’T YOU TAKE YOUR SPYWARE OFF AS WELL WHEN YOU LEAVE BECAUSE IT INTERFERES WITH MY WORK. IT IS REALLY SICK THAT YOU BLOCK ME FROM DOING MY WORK YOU DON’T WANT ME WATCHING ANY ONE ELSE ON THE NET BUT YOU . HANNA MIGHT BE YOU FIANCE BUT DOES SHE KNOW YOU ARE A PLAYER?
