Ranch Hand Huyser Family Dairy - Sully, IA 06/2018 - 10/2018 The Huyser Dairy Farm, formally known as the DaMin Dairy, is a family run dairy farm located in the small town of Sully, Iowa. I wanted to truly test my work ethic and experience country life for all that it has to offer in June of 2018. So I took to craigslist and responded to an ad that read "Short term ranch hand needed." I got into contact with the family and two days later I traveled to Sully, Iowa to meet with them and discuss the position. Once I was given the position I quickly compiled my belongings and relocated to a small house across from the 800 acre dairy farm in Sully. The cows need to be milked twice a day and I was assigned the 2:00 A.M. shift which certainly took some sleep adjustments but it gave me most of my days free. In addition to that shift, because I lived in the house across the street, I was the alternate worker for when they needed other tasks completed. It was an incredible experience which further instilled in me many of the virtues that the small town, dairy farming family lived their lives by. Those being:

Tenacious work ethic of which I have not seen in any other line of work I have experienced

The importance of attention to detail and attentiveness when learning new tasks as well as following orders

Working smoothly with your peers in order to flawlessly and safely execute the objective at hand

Always be doing something productive. This dairy farm is the lifeblood of the family and there is hardly enough time in the day to get all tasks accomplished. There is always something to be done

My responsibilities and duties on the farm were, but were not limited to, the following: Arrive, punctually, at 2:00 A.M to turn on the system and prepare the equipment Seclude, separate and transport the first of four groups of the two hundred and fifty head of cattle from the barn to the milking parlor and commence milking Return the first group of cattle to their respective barn and repeat these steps until all of the cows have been milked

Clean the milking parlor and begin my daily chores for the morning Which included: feeding the calves, birthing calves, transporting hay bails with a skid loader, mucking and cleaning the barns, herding cattle and transporting the cattle when necessary and any miscellaneous jobs and chores that needed to be handled
