Summer Schedule
Our schedule may vary, but expect a new video 3 days a week at 11AM Central!
How Farms Work by Ryan Kuster is a KZbin 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.

Videos cannot get any better than this, Photography , drone , music and of course ROCKET😀👍🏾🐕🐕🐕

[@MatthewHoag77]

Can't stress it enough: you guys are having a great harvest despite the rough conditions you've faced this year. For some reason, you seem to get some of your best videography when you're at British, and especially in the 40. Where you go from here into 2020 is for you to know and for us to find out in some part, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there. Until then, these videos are really good! Thanks for sharing them.

[@barrydarnell9748]

After struggling to get planted and fighting weather so much this season, it is very gratifying to see your family have good success with high yields. Very happy for you.

[@bluemtnsman]

One of your best videos,,, and I have seen them all. Great shots with and without the drone, relaxing music, no huge hurdles to be surmounted,,, AND,,, kick butt yield figures. Well done sir.

[@AJwesleyify]

Beautiful clear drone shots of the sunset and unloading the cart.

[@HowFarmsWork]

david w pinkston thanks!

[@jimbob9714]

Thank you Ryan, this was incredibly relaxing to watch on a Sunday morning in the city after spending most of the week in the Hospital. You got some great wide panoramas in this one.

[@ARKNode]

Wonderful beautiful shots as always.

[@rusnsc7622]

Great vlog my friend the camera work, editing and tunes were great. Sure enjoy watching and learning about farming. Thanks

[@daveo1339]

The auger cam shots are outstanding!

[@lynnmoore2664]

Really awesome drone footage Ryan. I have started watching a lot more farming channels but this channel is #1 imo. Thanks for all your hard work in producing these great videos.

[@JimEstep12071]

Glad I watched to the end, was going to ask about the Capello...nice music to the video, thanks !!

[@RKHarm24]

Another fine video and your drone shots are always on top. Of all the harvests, this has been the best in yields and video coverage. Keep up the great work.

[@cassiuspuckett8789]

Man! I just love watching your videos Ryan. Ooo, sounds like your on your way to having a bumper corp this year. Good luck on the rest of harvest.....

[@hazadj]

It’s still 80 degrees everyday here in Sacramento California. Hasn’t rained yet. Awesome shots at the end of the sunsets and tractors. You should put together a book of all the photos you have like that. Either that or get them printed so people can frame them and hang them in their homes.

[@chrisromer8014]

Enjoying your cinematography. Nicely done. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@mikespecht]

I moved away from iowa 17 years ago so I am out of the ag community. I was starting to think no one used grain wagons anymore. We had two wagons, something around 300 bushel was our "big" one, and a homemade 200 ish wagon was our second. Only had to keep up with a massey 300 with a two row head for 80 acres. About 3 years before retirement my grandpa moved up to a big 4 row massey 510 lol. Using old equipment took a little longer, but there were zero payments to cut into the bottom line.

[@piperdoug428]

We're down to 50 acre of flax and same of soy but just had freezing rain then 3 inch of snow, farmageddon strikes again, glad yours is going better.

[@bluedodge14]

Love the videos! I just found your channel a couple weeks ago and I love all the information you put in the videos!

[@VernonChitlen]

The green waterway cover looks really good!

[@gavv_2379]

Looks like you guys are having a good harvest year! Congrats! Love your vids and keep up the great work!!!

[@stanhensley3082]

Wow,some your beat video work.The drone shots are out standing. Looks like your farms have a very good crop consultant.

[@christophmuller6695]

What a beautiful sunset! i love this video. by the way, where do you get this awesome music from?

[@jimplacko9092]

[@lewisgeyer1440]

Great video and editing, as always. Thanks!

[@roscoejones4515]

Beautiful drone photography-and editing. You keep getting better and better.

[@Fundy55]

Ryan, I'm a subscriber to your channel and I've never commented before but I'm compelled to drop a note about this video. I really enjoyed it because of the things you did when you taped. I'm assuming you mounted a camera on the grain cart auger and used it to get the effect you wanted. It was cool to see the auger rotate up and there was the combine unloading into the cart. I also thought the way you used your drone and skimmed across the top of the standing corn, breaking out to capture the combine cutting corn. The shots from high up showing the contour and layout of the field and the combine working was good. The taping you did at dusk was very good. The sunset, the running lights on the tractors and combine was a nice touch. The shot I think that was the best one was about at the 11:10 point into the video when you was taping the grain cart unloading into the wagon and you flew your drone over the carts and rotated the camera about 180 degrees and caught the combine with it's lights on way off in the distance. I don't know if you intended it all to come out the way it did but it was a nice job worthy of mention. The only thing that detracted from the video was the stupid commercial right in the middle. Keep them coming.

[@brianscwh2374]

Great shots and camera placement. My 1 really close friend owns a farm. Last few years he has been going more high tech. He actually mounted a screen in his Case tractor that he uses just for the camera he put on the auger of his auger cart so his wife or who ever drives can see what's going on.

[@russellwischmeyer7864]

U guys are having phenomenal yields happy for you guys and love the intro song

[@makingithappen9722]

You are lucky that you live in Southwestern Wisconsin and not in Jokkmokk in Northern Sweden. We have -13F and about 4 feet of snow.

[@jeffc6268]

Beautiful videography!

[@Chico-td2fy]

Great vids...nice sunny day here in Northwest Indiana🌽🌽🌽

[@arminschmidt6199]

Very moody drone shots from the afternoon, refined with some cool music. Congrats for a very nice (and as always educating) video!

[@davidmoran1422]

Amazing. Thank you.

[@seadog6351]

Great video today. Glad your harvest is going so well.

[@GregLoechel]

G'day mate, when you have a low depression there is more steam, high depression is no steam or very little it's to do with the weather!! Its when ya awake and having a cuppa check it then. Waving from Down Under!!

[@timothymcmurtrie5277]

Ur videos rock. Awsome job ryan

[@nickcooper8322]

The 8235r needs an full led light upgrade. Keep up that amazing work.

[@ironwolf16alpha]

awesome vid man and the unverferth fits the 82r like it was meant for it

[@hughwhaley3179]

Awesome drone video and great yield 🌽👍

[@lynnallen8648]

Good to see Rocket with some bling. My red golden just like yours had his selection of bling and went everywhere with me. Keep the videos coming. Thank you...

[@tooez90]

Back in the 80's , a good crop was 125 bushels/acre...goes to show how far farming genetics have come

[@farmermatt629]

Genetics are part of it most of it is farmers have more tools these days unfortunately when we put those tools to work prices rarely go up...

[@farmermatt629]

Btw I’d take high prices and low yields anyway .... in the 80s seed corn was 80$ a bag on high end today a bag of seed is 250$-350$ a bag and corn is still the same price as it was in 80s

[@robhakeman5873]

I agree on the yields, can't believe how much your getting do to being a wet year. Where did you get your drone at Ryan ?

[@dwightl5863]

Plant population is higher due to narrower rows.

[@timwestendorf8303]

I watch about 10 farming channels. But ryan you and welker farms for some reason hands down have the best videography. I appreciate you putting in the effort. I hope KZbin makes it worth your time. Also i don't like it when ppl are negative about youtubers getting to demo equipment, its great for everyone involved even myself the viewer! Equipment companies are advertising cheaply, you get the equipment for the views your creating, and i get to see the equipment in action not listen to a blow hard salesman.

[@zilla2006able]

love your videos Ryan

[@lindadanielson7849]

Beautiful scenery

[@chadadams5754]

Thanks for saying ah, like your Canadian in the first sentence of this video

[@frmerrin2]

Damn you make some good videos.

[@MrBigrigdaddy]

Great footage, two thumbs up!!!

[@geedubb2005]

I love that steel guitar.. it almost put me to sleep. Thanks

[@ginggur17]

Hey I was talking about you to our friends about 450 miles NW of you at Rochester last night. Plus, I went to a tractor show locally today and purchased myself an 8345R with duallys all round matching yours in a 1:32 scale. Looks identical to yours too. A lil bit of HOW FARMS WORK right here on display tonight. Happy days I say.

[@buckeyefarmboy107]

Excellent camera work

[@americasdream1265]

thrilled to know someone had a good year, here in Indiana we had a terrible year with first to much rain and then in July on a drought. I guess 210 bushels per acres is good in your area but not here, anything less than 260 bu/per acre is a bust.

[@lukestrawwalker]

Yeah very hit and miss around Indiana from everything I've heard... more miss than hit actually. Later! OL J R :)

[@tw-20craig65]

You do some amazing thing with the video thank fun to watch step above the rest

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video

[@justlooking2013]

Ryan you guys need a combine up grade, like anything that you can put a 12 row head on, or another 9500 with a 6 row head.

[@loganfischer7715]

I love your bushes baked beans dog

[@lynnallen8648]

Ryan, which drone and camera ae you using? The videos are really crisp and clear. Thanks

[@dankinnard1833]

Awesome!

[@chadcummings4324]

Good video 👍

[@kamilkuzmicki1687]

When your here early! HI RYAN 👋

[@dannydavis2913]

Nice even stocks

[@marty0715yt]

Fantastic shots Brian. Feels like I'm flying alongside!! Have you watched Trent Palmer?? He has a 360 camera and it appears you are right next to him!! Great Views again. Thanks

[@kaidonwilliams9902]

I’m out bailing and it is 40 degrees out side and I love it

[@lukestrawwalker]

Yep better than doing it in 100 degree weather on an open station tractor! OL J R :)

[@kaidonwilliams9902]

luke strawwalker true we feed cattle In a open cab jd 4020 and that sucks to

[@lukestrawwalker]

@@kaidonwilliams9902 Yep I do most all our stuff with a pair of Ford 5610's and of course open station means freeze in the winter fry in summer and eat dust all the time! If I have enough hay I've only been doing a fall cut of native bluestem hay which doesn't even come on til mid-late October when it's much cooler, SO much nicer cutting, raking, and baling in 50 degree weather than 100 degree weather... LOL:) OL J R :)

[@kaidonwilliams9902]

luke strawwalker rite now me and my dad are bailing in Iowa while it is snowing out

[@lukestrawwalker]

@@kaidonwilliams9902 kinda hard to bale with snow flying isn't it? Or is it not sticking, it you making straw bales that are plenty dry?

[@timwright7087]

Do you fill them sink holes in ..or just leave them ...was the mining tunnel or open pit

[@JuffoWup78]

Is from before the harvesting at the main farm of the previous video or after? Or was the Capello head just for a one day demo? Edit: nvm, just finished to the end. Good to hear the yield is there for you guys even if you are being forced to harvest in the muck due to the weather. Stay safe out there!

[@stevemondal.]

The Cappello prequel.

[@samrugtiv3839]

Well done sod busters
