Combines Duck Feed

I believe that 2 kernals of corn per sq foot is a bushel per acre, 4 soybeans per sq foot is a bushel per acre. With the help of this web site, Hyper himself, and friends to the west of us we have been able to get the losses from our rotor down to 1_2 or less bushel per acre. I guess for these guys to help you, you should tell us what kind of set up you have. Do you have half height bars IJ F2 bars IJIJ Extended cylinder kit IJIJIJ In case you are not familiar with this web site the button to your left called " Hper Mods" will help walk you through things that will help with your rotor loss. I would bet these guys can help you get that number down and put more corn in your bins and it be better quality corn too. Good luck.
