Low Harvest Efficiency

Low Harvest Efficiency

Fix low harvest efficiency in reapers and crop harvesting machines.

Practical recommendation

Low harvest efficiency can come from wrong crop stage, dull blades, incorrect speed, lodging or poor field access.

For reapers, verify working width, cutting height, engine/fuel type, blade support and field turning space. Lodged crop and wet soil reduce efficiency.

Operating, cost and maintenance notes

Stop the machine before inspecting belts, blades, rollers, chains or feed systems. Diagnose crop condition, operator speed, drive parts and engine load before replacing parts.
