The individual bundles were called sheaves and with corn just as far as I know just called bundles. 50 years since we cut corn but I still have the John Deere corn binder that my Mom's Dad had orignally then sold to my Dad's Dad. The toung truck is long gone and we pulled it with a 1944 2N Ford Dad bought new in May of 1944 along with the orignal 2-12" Ferguson Plow.

The foder was blown in the barn and fed to the milking cows in the evening with what they did not eat going out for bedding the next morning and getting hay in the morning. Both the shreader and corn binder with a little cleaning would be ready to go to work and the binder always had the bundle carrier and it deposited the bundles far enough to the side they were out of the way for the next round. Never made silage but they did make wagon loader bundle carrier for making silage and you never had to pick the bundles up off the ground. They also made a soybean attachment for the corn binder and a second string knotter for different size corn stalks.
