    CURRENT SCHEDULE
    Expect a new video every Sunday and Wednesday at 11AM Central!
    How Farms Work by Ryan Kuster 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. 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.

    We'd put panels like those out in corn fields after harvest. Placing them in a V shape with the peak either west or North. The feed cows all winter out on the fields in central KS.

    You can probably find a good ration for ground corn that would not cause acidosis and would save you a lot of nutrition $. Ionophores added to the grain really helps with rumen function, and buffers such as bicarb are cheap to add in. Forage choppers have processors for a reason, whole corn passes straight through without much nutrition being used.

    Ryan, have you ever considered getting a weather station for the farm. It would give you rainfall, temp, humidity, etc. You could also put it on the internet so
    we could keep track of your weather. The best ones are IMHO, Davis and Ambient weather. Merry Christmas and Happy New year to you and the family.

    It would add value to the feed if the corn was cracked / crushed. Get more nutrients. But can only work with what you have.

    Watching you cleaning the tracks reminded me of one of our neighbors bought an old fire truck, pumper, to clean his feed lots and equipment. That was 60 year# ago and I’m not sure if the EPA would allow the run off today. Buy, it worke$ and mad3 life easier.
    Merry Christmas, Ryan and a happy healthy New Year. Cheers!

    Hi from oz Ryan. Feeding grain to ruminate animals is a real science and study in economics nowadays. But they still need that 15% roughage in the diet. Here in oz our general rules are oats is safest and not worth the cost of rolling (gives less dust than hammer mill). Followed by corn(but do sums before milling) then wheat,sorghum and barley is the most touchy grain to feed. Here in oz not much corn used or grown here but oats most used for on farm production and feed out then wheat and sorghum. Lots of sheep here and corn very safe with sheep. Glad we don’t have your horrible winters but have heatwaves and bushfires in summer. (Heatwave is more than 3 continuous days over 100*f or about 39 c).

    You could likely save those bunks a while longer if you sprayed the interior with truck bed liner. Just be sure to leave some holes for water drainage.

      My brother finishes his steers on ground cob corn,and his sons finish with ground shelled corn and hay. The cob corn for some reason does better. There must be a little something extra in the cob.

    Do you plan on selling your calves as feeders or finish them yourself? Here in our part of the country a feeder calf allowed to have that amount of grain will show to much flesh when sold and suffer a big discount. Feeders don't want to buy that much flesh on a calf that is still growing his frame. A 1300 to 1600 pound finished animal is I think is bit big. Think your looking at more like 1200 to 1400 at the very topside. Primal cuts from a carcass that big will result in to much trim and cost the packers bottom line. Also will result in cuts that are to large for the average household. As narrow as margins are I would think you would want to take advantage of everything that you can when raising your animals. Processing the grain is an essential part of any cattle ration. They will have to learn to eat again when you do introduce the processed grain. Benefits far outweigh the convenience factor here.

    Why didnt you run that corn through the roller mill? Corn needs to be cracked to be broken down... I said it... just get you a gravity box cheap and crack it in that.... you dont need a poly bin you got a shed to store the gravity box in
