A machine and method for removing tassels from corn stalks comprising a blower positioned over the stalks as the machine advances over a field of corn and blows downwardly on the upper ends of each respective stalk to cause the upper leaves on the stalk to move downwardly from their normal disposition. Vertical wall structures are positioned outboard the stalks to momentarily prevent the leaves from regaining their normal disposition. Tassel-removing structure is provided between the wall structures for removing the tassel from each stalk while the stalk passes between the wall structure.
