Straight combining boosts harvest gains and lowers costs
Near Somerset farmer Greg Gaudet adopted straight combining in 1983 by harvesting ripe rye and Durham wheat earlier and with less cutter bar loss. He reports higher yield in the bin, lower drying costs, and better grain weight retention, despite more stubble and plowing. Local figures cite a 1983 35 a tonne saving in wheat and rising costs later in 1985.
