The 40 - Harvesting Corn

Today for #harvest18 we pick away at what we call "The 40" which is 40 acres that is in continuous corn. Thank ya'll for watching!
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.

    @Sebastian Erler name of the channel is"The Rest of the Story" he and Ryan do a good job of not trying to be the same channel while still covering the same topics. Quite enjoyable to see the contrast and because of the different editing and recording styles they blend well together. Travis gives usually daily updates and Ryan does a very well put together showcase of the farming operation. Really want to meet both of them someday but alas, not within my budget at the moment lol.

    Thanks for sharing your harvest! It is a busy season in itself, much less the work you do putting videos out. Very interesting to see historic use of the land and how it carries over into the present. With the two newer bins having different equipment, will you be transferring drier/known moisture corn between bins to manage moisture? I think you've made mention of this in previous videos.. curious your options with consideration to harvest conditions and equipment at hand.

    Great shots... for your "in row" shots like at 10:45, you can dig a quick little "pit" with a garden spade to recess your camera down into the soil a bit so the head will ride right over it... just taper a little "ramp" down into it in the direction you're filming so the soil doesn't block the camera's view... Love "worm's eye" views LOL:) I've done it before with the bean head and it works well. Later and KUTGW! OL J R :)

Hopefully it’ll dry out enough for y’all to keep harvesting and you won’t have to wait too long. Here in South Carolina it is currently very dry and still hot. We’ve still got highs in the 80’s and the lows in the mornings don’t go down past the mid 60’s. Anyway, great video!

    About how far around the first (outside) round of the 40 can your dad get with 9510 before he needs to unload? Would that change much if you eventually go to a bigger combine and bigger head? I had to laugh at the "Darn Kids" moment. Were those empty cobs seen at 10:41 evidence of deer damage or just scattered from the previous pass? Before anyone knocks the PB&J, sustenance in any form is critical for long days like this. It's especially nice when it's delivered right in the field to you. As a fellow overnighter, I feel for your dad pushing so hard with so little sleep to harvest everything. Thank you for sharing the dual perspectives of your channel and your brother's since you're involved in different parts of the process. Epic videos like this keep me tuned in.
