ABSTRACT:
A forage harvester, otherwise of generally typical construction, is modified to include kernel-processing means in the form of a pair of cooperative compressor rolls situated in close proximity to the cutterhead and adapted to receive from the cutterhead fragmented crops and to further reduce the crops and especially to crack the kernels. The compressor rolls are of the type usually employed in a roller mill and have corrugated cylindrical outer surfaces particularly adapted to crack the kernels.
