How Farms Work is a RUclips 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. Our videos show the Kuster family working together raising cattle and GMO crops. We believe everyone who wants to know more about farming should be able to share the farming experience with us.
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.
Be sure to subscribe for new videos every Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday at 11AM Central!
That bass is howling!!!!
Mate I have a new rhino 6200 20 foot galvanised sitting in my shed here in Australia and I got it after watching yours work on your channel cheers Ryan
Craig H awesome! Let me know how it works for you!
Absolutely great video! When I watched this video my thoughts return to the fire. I live close to the Carr fire in California and had to evacuate my home , I am back now and everything is ok at my place but over a thousand homes and buildings were burnt. Part of the problem was poor forest management. It is great to see you doing the right thing!
We're not a huge fan of controlled burns
I love pasture reclaim videos!!
Jim Estep me to
So satisfying watching those damn bushes, scrub and small trees disappear !
This one by far has been the heaviest cutting action. I'm anxious to see what happens when the 4155 goes back. Hopefully, a suitable replacement is found that can do even more foliage destruction as they require.
You should demo one of the New S770 bobcats!
I'd love to!
Heck of a workout for the Rhino Ag brush mower. That pasture was overdue for the clearing that the mower out performed any expectations again. A far better marketing tool than a fancy advertising campaign done by non farmers. Great upload and more pasture for more cattle.
Rhino needs to use your footage for their ads. You definitely put it to the test. That’s a well designed and built piece of equipment.
A skid steer bush hog attachment would be the ticket. Unbelievable how versatile a skid steer is.
That’s some serious mowing. Gotta day that Rhino gets the job done.
Rhino is high quality that's for sure!
Love watching ya destroy that overgrown mess and taking back some pasture ! Keep them coming !! Thanks.
Yep that rhino batwing mower is definitely a beast LOL 👍 👍
you need that ..what are you going to do when its gone ...and i learn a lot from you and your brother and thank you for you and your family's hard work you put in this country !!!!
One way or another, we're going to keep a Rhino mower on the farm!
Damn that mower does a nice job.
that machine is a beast Ryan
I agree!
You should check to see if Rhino makes a forestry mulcher head for your bobcat. If not look into hiring one for a day or two, they can completely clear your fence lines, overgrown areas with ease.
I'm only 2 minutes into the video....but YES....OMG...more! I love these type of videos.
Ryan you need to hit that hard with Tordan and Grazon to keep the small bursh and bushes under control in the future.
Nice video Travis was having way to much fun with the Bobcat woohoo !!👍👍👍👍
Buddy. That mower is no joke!!!
Great video Ryan !! You guys did pretty good it look like . Now it probably needs the chain saw clip ! Locusts are like a venereal disease, easy to get and a real pain - in more ways than one - to get rid of !! Same goes for the multi-flora roses ! Looks like the Rhino does a good job on just about everything you set it to ! It takes time and hard work to undo years of neglect but you guys are making good progress !
Yeah, I learned something. And that something is spelled b-u-l-l-d-o-z-e-r. The really good way to clearing.
Love the new sub woofer!!!!!!!!
It is what it is !
Awesome video. If I was to ever have the money and in need of a large mower like this one you have me sold on it after seeing what it can do. This thing really is a BEAST!! I have enjoyed seeing what you get into every time you have the Rhino mower hooked up to the tractor.
Nothing can stop the mighty bob cat
Great vid on reclaiming overgrown pasture lands / Rhino 4155 and the Bobcat with grapple bucket . Woods brush can get away before you realize. Stay safe guys.
he's rolling on that skid steer lol.
Very therapeutic.
Quality counts when you need an implement. Good job. Enjoy your vids.
Awesome I've been waiting to see the Rhino mower in action.
Enjoyed watching Ryan
I love your channel it reminds me of the big 1978 8430 John Deere we have and you do a great job with your videos.
Travis is having to much fun
I like the flat top they have looks like it’d be easy to clean off compared to our bush hog they look really well built!
How many watts is that dog?
Fred Ivory we don't know, it stopped working, it was feeling a bit ruff
Sid Jones 😂
About 4 paws
y'all should see if you can rent one of those forestry heads for the bobcat it would save Travis some time and really give y'all the ability to open up the areas your working.
Awesome video Ryan🚜👍👍👍
jumping Bobcat was awsome, great work
We just bought a rhino sr240 20ft for mowing crp and reclaiming some land from red willows and small cottonwood tree's needless to say that awesome to destroy 3 inch tree's
awsome job awsome equipment awsome farming family
I like the mowing videos.
Thanks Chris!
At the end, he sounded so disappointed that he didn't wreck anything on the mower.
I Enjoyed the video Ryan and Travis too .
Great video, that mower is a monster! 😨
Looks like the mower is very well built.
Love your videos but especially mowing videos
Extreme batmobile action yea
Rhino makes a pretty damn nice mower, WOW!
Great machine, good video
I’ve ran over 4 inch thick trees going forward and backwards with our Bush Hog
Awesome drone work.
Cool, more rabbit hunting paths!
Awesome video
Another great video Ryan's thanks
I would love to tackle all that brush with the D8 dozer I used to drive, I'd clear the lot and put it all in one big pile for burning. Easy job it would be too.
Robert S a excavator with a hydraulic thumb is much better for clearing jobs it's not as fast but your burn pile won't have all the rocks and dirt mixed in it too which will burning easier
Or a 299d2 xhp with a nice mulching head. Less fuel use then an 8 and most excavators, and also you don’t have to burn anything so you don’t pollute as much.
we just ran everything over when i cleaned right a ways with a 6040jd with the front brush guard, if the tractor can drive on it it got mowed lol
Robert S o
It’s a good thing Travis doesn’t have a bulldozer!
I think that very much depends on the perspective. I won't try to speak for him, but something tells me he'd have some fun with one if given the chance.
That looks like fun
Looks like the bobcat could use a set of tracks to help with the trees and stuff. Like to watch the destruction for some reason. 😏
Should have shown an overview before and after. Great video.
I have used Rhino equipment before and found them to very durable. Glad to see some things don't change. Question though. Do you have any sort of wood that fire wood people would like? I ask because they might be willing to take some old growth so you can let some new growth grow.
We let some people come in and take as much wood as they can.
You should look for a brush mower for your skid steer maybe
I fully understand the whole weight sliding around stuff I Bush hog for the town I work for it just happens sometimes
love the videos keep up the great work
After seeing the bobcat spinning and twisting I was surprised there were no public warning announcements advising you to seek cover immediately.
Tell Travis to be extra careful when doing that. One of my friends was clearing land like he is here and a stick came through the front and went straight through his leg.
Could you please add some technical details about the tractor you use and the batwing ie: power requirements and pto horsepower etc. Thanks Great vid....................
that is tough mower.wish I had one back in ND.i would have made some hunting spots in the woods with it.
Amazing videos
So much destruction, so little time! How often do the blades get sharpened, and how it that done?
I believe your BobCat 773 is a high flow unit. you need to get a Barrel type forestry mulcher head . You're using 2 pcs of equipment that 1 can do all by itself and it can take down trees. Since you don't own the batwing, see if RinoAg has a forestry mulching head for the BobCat.
I don't believe so or else we'd have one! We've had this discussion on the farm between us quite a bit!
I realize this was a semi-sponsored video in that Rhino wanted you to show you using their equipment. But have you considered periodic prescribed burns of the area to clear the brush and smaller trees?
We’re not too big on setting brush on fire. We sometimes burn piles of dead trees, but they don’t burn well enough to justify it.
Great machine. All I kept thinking about while watching this video was, cut all that poison ivy!
I'm sure check out my new sub oofer the radio really barks xd
I hope that you guys have wes's favorite tire jet in the tires on your deforestation equipment if it is as good as his shotgun video it will save a lot of agrivation
You could rent a small tree mulcher for the bobcat.
Good video ryan
thx 4 the nice video
Good video Ryan. Have you guys considered a forest mulcher for the Bob Cat to use on the bigger stuff
Yeap made to go forward. And any cheap mower would cut down those little saplings you were moving away from.
I know you guys have been waiting for the chance to do this. The Rhino 4155 really is a beast! You're not just saying it either. How much of a headache was it to fly the drone in amongst the trees and brush? When will the bulldozer come out to finish the job, or should we call Cotontop3?
It's never a headache until it hits one! The bulldozer will come around when the money is free to do so, but that might be awhile.
All in due time, of course. It'd be interesting to save an overhead shot from Google Earth or the drone of what it looks like now and compare that picture with one taken in five to ten years. I am certain a lot would change.
Nice vid ryan like always
Y’all should get a John Deere 5 series or 6 series for daily chores on the farm like bush hogging and stuff that the other tractors cant
Good job
Looks like a park after you were done, not so much your brother tho, lol.
Love the vid
awesome video Ryan :)
have you ever thought about plowing the areas you just mowed
I would be worried about wash as well as the roots if we were to use the chisel plow.
It's not a mower. Its a TANK!!
A schulte mower will out do that rhino any day. We’re going on 25 years with ours and still have yet to have anything go wrong other then bearings and blades
All just normal wear and tear
I have two TW 84 Rhino 3 point rotary cutters. They are of Mediocre quality at best. The gear boxes started leaking shortly after I got them. If you try to snug the bolts. The bolts easily twist off. ( Butter Bolts.) One of the Rhino mowers cut itself in half. The tip of the blade would make dents in the top sheetmetal. And eventually the blade got into the sheetmetal from just under the P.T.O. to not quit 6 o'clock. I don't abuse my equipment, I just use it and maintain it. Rhino makes a low Value rotary cutter. I will not buy another one.
M.H.
Check out Jason Hollis' Brown Tree Cutter on his RUclips channel: Hollis Farms. It will take care of trees almost 6 inches in diameter. Maybe Rhino has something similar.
Your useing the mower like the bobcat
How hard is it to get the blades off the rhino to sharpen them,or do you use a hand grinder and just leave them on?
Haven't had to sharpen them or replace them yet, honestly.
Will you take down some bigger trees to? To allow the sun to get to the ground.
Probably not. Bigger ones can stay, it's the brush and smaller trees under them that need controlling.
With what you were mowing in the video with that mower. How did you not dull the blades down to where they wouldn’t cut?
They spin fast enough to cut anything.
Go Rocket!
Do you guys have any plans on reseed the area you cleaned up? Looks great what you guys cleaned up.
hey man, what tires do you recommend for a brush tractor, we have real big mesquite thorns here in texas and i just pulled the tumbe out of my tire and filled it with slime, but i was wondering if aircraft tires would work. i talked to my brother in law about it and he said the rubber was to soft and theyd go flat, and i just dont see that happening. im thinking about foam filling with two part foam but eh. my tractor is a 8n so i just need the front wheels filled but i havent decided on what to do with the tires yet
i put slime one one, its holding air for now. i think im going to run that for now, i bought a gallon today
Have you ever broke the drive shafts or the cutting blades? Are there any shear pins in the system?
I think it has slip clutches rather than shear pins
That mower does have slip clutches...and with a large tractor you can slip them on some heavy stuff...I know because I changed some out yesterday.
