ABSTRACT:
A harvester with unconventional grain flow for collecting and measuring grain grown on strip test plots. A conventional harvester having a weigh bucket for measuring grain located at a high position is modified by reversing the grain flow of a lateral conveyor and locating the weigh bucket at a low position inside the vertical confines of the harvester. The modified grain path upstream of the weigh bucket reduces the time required to move harvested grain to the weigh bucket and thus the waiting time required between harvesting of successive strip plot tests.
