Windrowing oats to reduce shattering boosts profits
Barger recommends windrowing as a way to cut moisture before binning, stretch harvest, and lower shattering. Windrowing costs are $1.50 per acre, while combining plus windrow is valued at $3.85. Grain above 14 percent moisture should not be binned without dehydration. while dryers are experimental, windrowing remains practical on Iowa farms. Four main reasons: reduce moisture, stretch harvest, dry green weeds for easier combining, and handle uneven ripening by windrowing and later combining.
