I custom harvest here in central Ga with two old Ford 642's(built by Claas) ant they have ALWAYS been great at leaving nothing behind them but not so this year.I pulled corn in the same area with three other guys that use two newer J.D. combines as well as a 2188 case I.H. and you cant tell any of the fields apart.They all look bad but if you get to figuring on a 230BPA yield 1% would be over two bushels.We lost a lot to shattering just time the head touched it and we also lost some out the back because green leaves and stalks off of high moisture seems to let more corn ride out the back instead of shredding up and working over the sieves like it should.I combined one field at 18.5% moisture and three weeks later went back to the same field and combined some test polts at 13%,if you look at the field now there is only half as much volunteer on the low moisture spot compared to the high one.
