Crop Catcher does what its name promises: it eliminates seed losses caused by shattering of the retractable fingers on the auger. Another advantage is that no seeds are smashed and thrown over the back of the header, nearly eliminating volunteer weeds. This is particularly valuable for sugar beet crops following oilseed rape where volunteer seeds can cause severe problems with harmful cyst nematodes. It also reduces costs for tillage and spraying. Crop Catcher in addition eliminates build-up of seeds and chaff on the feeder house, not only maximising operator view, but also keeps your feeder house clean so you never have to clean it again!
