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.

Incredible. I remember back in the 70s every once in a while we'd all go to my grandparents farm and stay. As kids this was a big adventure and we'd get up to pretty wild stuff. One of our games we'd play was to climb up onto the silo bin (It was a pretty tall climb) then one day my cousin Anse opened the bin which was full and dives straight in. My sister Becca and cousin Jasper jumped in also and lay about making snow angles ect we were all in there. I can still remember the dust and every time I blew my my nose for days it was brown. More dangerous yet was that same full silo became our retreat to hide, smoke cigarettes and drink grandpa's beer. Good God how we didn't get killed is beyond me.

[@dougspencer6954]

Great video I'm glade you told about the hazards of going into one. For the younger farmers

[@OldTimerDave]

I have never had to climb into a harvestor silo but i have been in the old concrete ones. We did corn silage and one of our silos did not have an auto unloader... I was that unloader. wasnt bad until the silage would freeze to the outside walls in the winter months. got kinda scary when they silage was a foot thick up 6 feet on the walls and you were diggin out the center that wasnt froze. Glad you are all safe. thanks for the video

[@karlbrohammer9105]

Always had to keep picking at the silage stuck to the concrete wall, threw chunks down the chute to thaw in the feed room. Scary work either from top or inside the Harvestore, Grain bins are bad news also. Cheers!

[@MrDaChicken]

Indeed, that was never a fun job. We tried real hard to keep the frozen exterior even with the feed layer so the the degree of suck per day was slightly less.

[@OldTimerDave]

yes we always tried as well but those cold Northern Wisconsin winter always caught up to us

Farmers have to know so much about everything from electricity to plumbing to operating heavy machinery. I respect the effort it takes to keep at it.

Having worked up high quite a bit, make yourself a lanyard for that wrench, through the hole in the bottom, then run your hand through the lanyard loop and then hold it with your hand. 1. If it drops you don't accidentally kill someone, 2. You don't have to go back down to get it. Thanks for the video bud. Here's hoping for warmer (not hot) weather.

[@dav1099]

we always left a wrench tied up at the top, couldn't fall, or be forgotten. thanks for posting

[@nzcyclone]

as a qualified rigger,,, yeah everything on cords that cord either attached to your belt or around your wrist. That way nothing can fall further than its cord. It does not take height, It does not take size to kill someone. The right impact angel is all it takes and if speed is enough then even that does not matter. A small nail dropped is more than enough to seriously hurt someone.... when your feet are off the ground.... does not matter if 10 feet up or 200 feet up treat it the same

One of my jobs was shoveling 16" of silage twice a day from up in the silo for our 96 milk cows. None of our tractors was covered, you have it so easy. I think I have watched all of your videos and have enjoyed all of them. Keep them coming please.

[@farmerbill6855]

There's nothing better for storing high moisture corn. That said, one of the best days of my life was the day the Amish guys took mine down and put it up at their place. I hated being on top of it and I hated being in it. The stave silos never bothered me but there was just something about that Harvestore I did not trust. I do miss the US flag on the side of it though. Nice video showing true respect for the danger. Best regards from Indiana.

[@johnhundt5179]

From experience I hate harvester silos, nothing but respect for you gentlemen, evey single one I've ever been in, same problem always hanging up and someone (me) climbing into it to cleaning it out. God speed and God bless, because one false move and it turns into a bad day real quick.

[@greggreg4679]

[@v4vDrJoker]

Ryan, you really could benefit from leaving a couple of Carabiners hanging on the bottom of that silo ladder all the time. That way you can clip your wrench or whatever else you need to bring up to the top of the silo with you to a belt loop. Having two free hands is a must my man...thats how we always did it on the farm back in the day. Just a thought.

Good job men I am always a little anxious having to work in the silo or around our bins great job safe job 👍

[@RKHarm24]

I have been waiting for this video. Knowing you had to get the Corn down to a safe level, this video showed the completed operation to fix the problem. Very informative to a non silo usage person, aka city slicker. Although, 20 years working as a County Deputy, I never had a call of a silo injury or death. In the city, near the railroads is many storage silos. There have been some dust issues or fire in the handlers, but no failure of the silos structure. Concrete and Steel construction (Con-Agra)

[@Blazer02LS]

Great to hear you never got that call. Unfortunately I have been on two recovery calls. One in a harvestore one in a concrete. Plus fires and smoldering calls. You need to watch them close after a barn fire as the heat will start them cooking inside.

[@markallen3293]

My father's leg was caught in a Patz silo unloader augers. My brother and dad was in the silo evening out the inverted silage pile from filling, my dad was pulling on the augers side while my brother was on the opposite side pushing while the unloader was running. My father's leg caught in the augers, fortunately the unloader was old enough and the bearings were weak and snapped. My brother carried him down the silo shoot about 50 ft. on his shoulders. My dad being a life long dairy farmer and milk drinker probably saved his leg. Calcium. All he had after that was a scar in his leg. Thank the Lord. P.S. Look out for the pig manure pits and PTO shafts, their killers too.

[@alexandershriver284]

I work at a grain elevator. We don't go in bins if we don't have to. If we do have to climb in we need a full harness, life line, 2 other people, and an air quality monitor.

[@sean3223a]

Hello from Alberta, great video!

[@markb.1259]

So many life hazardous tasks on a farm. Sadly, lives are usually lost in multiples in confined spaces (silos, manure pits, etc...) because the 2nd person (safety observer) runs in to rescue the #1 person who's collapsed, and #2 person then #3 person collapse after being overcome by the hazardous atmosphere (toxic gases). Very sad! You should consider investing in a handheld gas testing meter to test the air inside the silo to ensure it will support life. Be Safe!!!

[@stanhensley3082]

If there is any out there thinks that was easy,think again!Also when they say farming is stressful,there was a very stressful job.I sweated just watching it.Thankfully it went well. Outstanding video!!Thanks

[@paulschoenfelder7500]

when I was younger on the farm , like 35 yrs ago we had the old cement tall silos 4 of them suckers with the foilage remover on top of pile moving around in a circle as it threw out the stuff.

[@danielhenebry8506]

Nice job and everyone is ok. My only issue with harvestores is everyone complains what it costs to repair one. They don't add up what they saved in tractor hours. My point is that how many bushes have gone through the silo and should the sweep and unloader be replaced . So many people will spend 20000 to buy a newer tractor but won't spend that on an updated feed system. I have been updating a tractor every three years and it cost $16.50 per hour this last time on a 110 HP tractor. I do put 600 hours a year on that tractor.

[@raymondhinds3539]

Great video. Excellent explanation of the dangers of a silo and how to be safe when working around and inside one. Grain bins have some different safety issues hope you do not have to deal with them. If you do I am sure you will cover it with another excellent video. Many Thanks.

[@deanhiner9842]

Ryan, Excellent video, Your confined space safety talk could not have been better. When it comes to entering those silos, safety should be at the top of the list and you are well aware of the dangers involved. They are known to be called Blue coffins. I kringed when Travis entered that silo and saw him working on top of the bridged corn and around him everywhere. All went well and nothing happened but it still puts a lump in your throat. As For fall protection, (Sneakysnake109) has a great suggestion for equipment so you don't lose it or hurt someone on the way up, once you are on top, you should have fall protection equipment and be hook in once you are on top. It's not the fall that kills you, its the sudden stop at the bottom. Sorry, you know the safety for the inside, Think about the safety for the outside it is along ways up those ladders. Continue to stay safe in all you do. See you next time.

Farming is one of THE Most Dangerous jobs there is. Thanks for this video!

[@Amanda-bg7ib]

To help people who might have gotten stuck in one of these, im wondering if can we install a microphone and system where if you shout a word like "call" it will contact the fire dept (or others) through a radio or a cell phone? Another idea is to install a voice activated trap door, letting the grain out. Would it be helpful to have a wristband with a button that stops the augers from moving, it seems like a simple device to make. If not a wristband, we could install the button on a commonly used tool. We could even make it voice activated too. So if someone yells "help"/"stop" the auger will turn off. Would any devices like these be useful? Or is the issue mostly that people suffocating from the pressures of the grain and help cannot arrive fast enough? As a engineering student from a city, (who knows nothing about farms and is learning how to build devices like these) I feel like there has to be some better tools/systems/devices that farmers can use to help mitigate accidents

[@ihus9950]

Glad to see you made the repair safely 👍

[@Greg_Gatsby]

Ryan, that looks like a cold 🥶 place to be on top of that silo. Thanks for featuring the safety precautions. I knew a guy years ago who had to stay attached to an oxygen generator because of cleaning a silo and destroying his lungs. He didn’t last much longer. Take care, my friend.

[@l337pwnage]

So that just pulled out. Interesting. I wouldn't think it would do that. I never used an unloader like that tho, we just had the paddle type. I was told they put incomplete ladders on there to keep kids off, but, tbh, we just had a portable latter with hooks that we could hang on there. Been up and down them a few times, not fun for me, I am NOT a heights person. Apparently that company now makes power doors for those now to market to the richy rich farms. Never saw a John Deere blower like that. Seems like it has a few extra moving parts with that shaker tray.

[@frankdeegan8974]

Growing up around farms as a kid I always wondered why farmers did not worry too much about keeping the silo roof in good repair if the silo had a roof. As of 2006 the last time I saw it one silo still had the unloader in it but no roof on it.

[@14Marathons]

[@randallgee5026]

As an apple grower we have controlled atmosphere rooms that we pump almost all the oxygen out of to prolong the amount of time we can store them. They can be real dangerous and many area farmers died when the practice was new by entering a room before it had properly been aired out! Stay safe!

[@etm567]

I'm curious about the silos, I watch Sandi Brock, and she uses plastic bags to "ensile" -- if that's how you spell it - her hay and oats and corn for feed. A man has this big tractor thing that has this plastic bag that's 140 ft long and about 9 ft in diameter rolled up on it and they chop the corn up and blow it into this bag and the tractor moves away and they seal the bag up and they seal it for 6 weeks and then she gets feed out of it. Looks easier than a silo.

[@samkom33]

Chris Goodman that not just grainbins even normal silos for say haylage can become deadly,, spesially the type we had at the farm i workd at growing up, where the lowest spot was 20 feet underground. it made filling it easy becouse you could just back up a standard dump trailer with gras, up a ramp and dump it in, instead of using a fan. but instead you had the opposit problem when there was little silo left... you had to use fans and hoses blowing fresh air down becouse silage gasses and exaust from engines and so on is heavyer than air. so we usually run the fans around 1 hour before we hoisted down an electronic gas reader to check before 1 was allowd to going down punching down the claws to the silage jaws that lifted max 3000 pound silage... the one that climbed down used a belt, cind of the type electricans use climbing poles that he put on the chain from the winch to the claw so in an emergency the person on top could winch him out. it might sound silly, but many farmers in norway died in that type of silos going down alone. here is a video that show the system with the winch and claw, altough these people just playing with the winch, not showing the silo, and this claw loos like it have only 4 claws, our had 6. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWGpl6qag9Vpf6c

It's known as a "confined space" and you never go into it without the proper equipment, such as a rescue rope and harness. There was an accident at a refinery where a worker saw a roll of duct tape inside a reactor...that was full of nitrogen. He either got a ladder and climbed in and was overcome, or he was dangling his feet in and was sitting on the flange and nitrogen was coming out and he was overcome. It is unknown which way it happened. The idiot who was with him got the bright idea of climbing in and pulling him out of it. He was promptly overcome. End result: 2 idiots dead! A 3rd person there saw that they were collapsed inside and was at least smart enough to hit the alarm. He wasn't an idiot, since he didn't try to go in himself. Why were they not issued resprators? Well, simple. They were supposed to replace an elbow on top of the reactor. Since they were not supposed to actually enter the reactor, there was no need to have respirator or rescue equipment.
