Feature benefit:

  • Improved separator performance through minimised material-other-than-grain (MOG) intake
  • Reduce ear loss to maximise potential yield.
  • Maximised potential yield through reduced ear loss
  • Improving sample quality through minimised premature shelling and kennel damage.

AutoTrac™ RowSense™ solution enables hands-free corn harvest

AutoTrac RowSense is a solution that increases machine efficiency and reduces operator fatigue for corn growers. AutoTrac RowSense offers operators the same high levels of convenience and productivity experienced in other crops or with AutoTrac-equipped tractors and AutoTrac RowSense on self-propelled sprayers.

Feature benefit:

  • Maintains harvesting efficiency in down crop and low-visibility (dusty) conditions.
  • Increases the acre-per-hour performance potential and reduces grain loss.
  • Enhances operator comfort and reduces operator stress.

StalkMaster™ row-unit enables stalk chopping

The StalkMaster corn head chopping system allows operators to size and chop corn stalks while harvesting, eliminating second-pass operations and saving time. StalkMaster is available on 706C, 708C, 708FC, 712C, 712FC, 716C, and the 718C Corn Heads.

Feature benefit:

  • Uniform sizing of corn stalks to speed decomposition and provide for soil protection from wind and water.
  • Eliminates the need for the second-pass operation to size stalk residue, saving time and expense.
  • Agronomic needs of individuals matched easily because the StalkMaster can be equipped with either intermeshing or opposed knife stalk rolls.
  • Ultimate flexibility to chop or not chop when desired through a quick,no tools required disconnect feature.

Opposed stalk roll options for premium stalk processing
