Back in 2010 Geringhoff released the massive 24 row 20 inch folding corn head coming in at an impressive 41 working feet. This… well… this is not that head. Coming in at 10 feet and folding to a much more manageable 7.5 feet, this Custom 4 row 30 folding Geringhoff split corn head is definitely one of the more unique machines I’ve seen.
It is attached to a Wintersteiger special split combine, which is used to harvest grain in test plots. The combine is split all the way down assuring a virtually mix-free harvesting of the left and right plot. This ensures that you receive the correct samples out of the combine. The head was custom designed to perform in these test plots and like the combine, the head is split down the middle, transferring the different grain samples separately to the combine.
In a world where equipment keeps getting bigger, it’s still neat to be impressed by something a little smaller.
