Farmer Invents New Harvester To Hull Clover
Near Lebanon Illinois farmer John Herr demonstrates a new clover harvester that cuts, hulls, and cleans seed in the field. The machine, shown to USDA officials, is tractor driven and promises lower costs, aiming for market soon. It harvests standing or swathed clover and reduces per bushel costs from five to seven dollars to under eighteen cents. The system drives heads with a revolving brush, lifts seed into a huller, then cleaners separate chaff, with the stalks left for grazing or fertilizer.
