ABSTRACT:
A mowing machine adapted for use in harvesting long stem textile fiber plants such as kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus), comprises a lower cutting unit provided with counter-rotating cutting discs, mounted on a wheeled frame in front of the inlet of a sheaves-forming magazine, and insertion members which are operatively associated with the cutting unit effecting the mowing of the stems, for guiding and conveying into the said magazine the cut stems standing in a substantially upright position; the said magazine having one elastically yielding wall; sheaves-expeller means associated to said magazine, and adapted for intermittent operation upon a control from a sensor or feeler member, which continuously senses the size of a sheaf being formed in the magazine, and automatically controls the operation of said expeller means, whenever the sheaf being formed has reached a predetermined size, so as to expel or discharge the said sheaf.
