[QUOTE="Pilatus, post: 6515632, member: 381"] Are stripper headers any good in a year like this? I believe [USER=6]@Clive[/USER] has run one in the past,but had high losses in wheat. I have used one in the past in extremely brackled barley and also standing barley and I would say it almost doubled the capacity of the combine with acceptable losses. Not a cheap option but perhaps one for those D/D amongst you , with disc Direct drills to briefly think about. Why the stripper headers have such high wheat losses in the uk always baffles me. If you can almost double the output of your combine for the cost of a stripper header, and you except the losses and can cope with the standing straw must have some merit in it. Know doubt I am missing something,as there are very few about on uk farms [/QUOTE]
