ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a low profile, compact row crop attachment which eliminates the use of crop conveyors in the form of chains with crop-engaging extensions attached thereto, such conveyors being subject to fast wear and being relatively expensive to replace. The chain type conveyors are replaced by a plurality of rotary means which are staggered transversely of the attachment relative to each other and positioned along side and outside an associated stalkway defined by a pair of spaced apart members. Conveyor means extend from the rotary means from outside into the associated stalkway so as, in operation, to convey crop along that stalkway.
