Low-cutting Devices for Harvesting Corn


Book Description

Removal of all cornstalks from the field for later shredding, ensiling, or burning is one of the most effective means of controlling the European corn borer. For satisfactory control by this method, it is necessary that the stalks be cut off at ground level, thereby leaving no stubble. By this means most of the borers can be removed from the field in the stalks.

The sled cutter costs little to make, and is easily constructed and operated. Two men operating a sled cutter should be able to cut about as much corn in a day as a one-row binder, and to obtain 1,600 and 2,000 pounds more fodder per acre than the standard binder.
