How Farms Work by Ryan Kuster is a KZread 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.

    It's amazing the technology advancements in ag even in the last 10 years, our neighbors son just got certified by the FAA at the beginning of the year to fly drones for agricultural use he has a fleet of 6 drones and can do north of 650 acres on a good day in a day. Crazy to think about the possibilities in even the next 10 years.

    The T30 (successor to the T20 shown here) has a multispectral camera option. It doesn't appear that it can spray and use that camera at the same time from a quick glance at the specs, but maybe it can and I just missed it. You can also get smaller DJI drones that just have a multispectral camera, and they can generate input for the larger drones.
