hi all, for someone who does not even own a picker, I seem to be asking a lot of questions... how do you store your cob corn? cribs? bins? what about storing shelled corn? My preference is to pick and shell in the field but can I avoid drying costs? The neighbours who combine corn have on-farm dryers or sel...

Howdy there yall, i'm new to the forum here and fairly new to corn pickers. Does anyone know anything about, have one, or have any pictures of a CASE 1P pull type 1 row corn picker? We picked corn this past Friday and Saturday and gettin ready to pick again this Saturday.

hi all, please bear with me as I continue asking newbie questions. I'm still 'kicking tires'. There are several 2 row wides available, 12 roll husker units. Can I add a 329 sheller without too much pain? Did the 329 work well? What wears out on a 329 sheller? Are parts available or rebuildable? I have a co...

hi all, a local auction sale listing came out today and shows a NI 327 two row picker. I thought a #327 was a sheller unit. Can someone confirm? thanks,

These are some pictures I took of my New Idea 319/322 combination about a week ago. It has been to the field now and everything works fine. Hopefully I'll get some pictures of it in action and get them posted at a later date.

Hi Everyone. I'm just joining this forum so bear with me. I grew up on an IH 234 mounted on a JD 3010 Diesel and have spent many an evening washing corn shucks from my neck. I've recently acquired a JD 237 that was on a 4010. Will it mount on my JD 730? I've had yea's and nays. Help?

...from central Ontario... I think there might be a corn picker-sheller in my future. This was silage corn country when I was young, very few pickers and then of course the combines came in. I will probably have to travel to western Ontario to find what I want and looks like my choices are New Idea or New...

Here are some pics from this fall. The first five are of me playing with the "red" pickers. The next three are of my son doing some serious work with the John Deere. This year we picked a little over ten thousand bushels of ear corn. We harvested the majority of the corn with the combine.
