I have a 5x7 B&W photo of this harvestor mounted on a TO-30, with my father in-law operating it. I beleive they were availiable with a hay head, corn head, and a flail head for green chopping. I will have to look in the old box of manuals to see if he kept a O&M manual for this attachment. He was a field testing engineer for Ferguson in Detroit. BTW Progress has slowed on the TO-30 restoration, just too D**M cold.

On the Ferguson Promotional Films DVD that was put to gether by the MFH Club of Ohio you can see on in operation. There is also an article on the Forage Harvester in the Ferguson Furrows Newsletter Number 7 from August 2002. These back issues are available from Paul-AZ (see his posts for e-mail)

The Forage Harvester was designated the F-HO-20. There is a family in Minnesota that has both the Froage Harvester and the B-EO-20 bailer.

There is also a corn picker and a mounted combine was under development.

That one row Fergie picker reminds me of an old one row Woods picker our neighbour had; pulled by a Cockshutt 70 with a home made heat houser from an old WWII Halifax bomber. I wish I could find that pic. Red

The combine was never put in production and the balers were all supposed to have been recalled and scraped but a very few excaped, a friend has one, there was a Massey Ferguson 1 row mounted corn picker made, neighbor had one 30+ year ago, long gone, but none with just Ferguson that I ever heard of

The Forage harvester had a 1 row corn head attachment. There are pictures of it and of the ad's in the Ferguson Furrows issue #7. There was a trail behind 1 row corn picker made by Bell City that Ferguson Dealers sold also.

Yes I know about the Belle City corn picker and the neighbor that had the 1 row mounted had a Belle City before that and I have a Ferguson manual for that Belle City picker but it is all under the Ferguson name and Ferguson numbers. The Belle City was never made in a mounted version that I know of tho. I do have an ad that shows the mounted forage harvestor. Jeff-oh, what part of Ohio are you from? I am from Wapakoneta
