Weed Seed Collection for R62


Posted by 04a72 on March 07, 1999 at 08:55:52 CST:

We have been working on a blower setup to catch and blow all residue from the sieves into a tow behind cart, We have a problem with herbicide resistant weeds developing, so we are keen not to spread them. I think The idea came out of Canada, and is widely used in Western Australia, mainly on John Deere's.

Looking for any Gleaner owners that might have done this or thinking about it, we have solved most engineering problems, driving the fan etc, but have lost quite a lot of capacity. Sieves overload etc.

Any ideas would be welcomed!
