  • We were about done with chisel plowing, when we were about to start for the day we noticed the front tire on the tractor a little low. We took it to Tandem Tire and they found a microfracture or two in the tube. After patching us up, we got on our merry way!

    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 CZcams 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.

    Talk about a grind... When it's a wet fall and you can't get into the fields after harvest to get the chiseling done, it becomes that much more of a stressor when you have to get it all done in such a short time in the spring. My relatives were never much into doing fall tillage, but their farms are quite a bit farther north than yours (Chippewa and Dunn Counties). I suppose, as long as Travis and you are willing to burn some midnight oil and roll coal, you can get it done. Those long (30+ hour) shifts in the seat must be rough at times.

      I'm so glad we don't do tillage anymore (we do no-till with terraces and all that hilly nonsense). No-till is easier and we only pull out the cultivator every once in a while. It's worked out well so far (~20 years or so). We're an old operation so I dunno how we''ll work out all the GPS guidance stuff (we're still doing all manual).
