Farm Science Review Corn Harvest Information

Chuck Zimmerman

New Holland Harvest CrewHere’s the New Holland crew after just finishing corn harvesting at the Farm Science Review. I spoke to Mike Craig about what they found.

He says they had been running for two days and that they were getting between 130 to 150 bushels with 18 to 20% moisture.

I asked him what’s new from New Holland and he says it’s their 8 row corn head with stalk chopper on each row unit which he says, “Allows us to chop the stalk as the ear is being pulled off from it to help with the residue on the ground.” He says it’s on display at their exhibit. Mike also says he really enjoys the interaction with farmers at the show.
