Harvesting Flax Methods in Different Field Conditions

Flax may be cut with a grain binder or header and threshed with a stationary thresher. If weeds are absent the crop can stand to full ripeness and be harvested by a combine. With weeds, windrow and thresh with a pickup on the combine when dry. Frost can kill weeds in northern regions, aiding drying and later combining. In wet seasons, green stems after ripe bolls require harvesting at boll ripeness and drying in shock or windrow before threshing.

Threshing Flax Techniques and Standing Maturity

Flax threshing requires dry seed and careful feeding to avoid seed cracks. Avoid crowding the machine and slow cylinder speed to prevent damage. Standing flax shows strong shattering resistance when ripe, allowing harvest with binder or combine if drought is not extreme.
