Why Choose Our Pickup Header?

🚜 Increased Harvesting Efficiency: Harvest two windrows in a single pass instead of two, significantly reducing field time. Fewer passes mean higher productivity per hour and better use of labor resources.

⛽️ Fuel & Cost Savings: Cutting field passes in half reduces fuel consumption and lowers operating costs.

Real-world savings over 800 acres: Farmers switching to the Dual-Bed Pickup Header save between 790 and 1,053 gallons of fuel compared to a single-bed pickup header.

🌾 Optimized Crop Flow & Seed Retention: Precision-designed belt connections and sealing system ensure minimal seed loss. Keeps combine cylinders loaded optimally, reducing threshing loss and increasing efficiency for low- biomass crops.

📏 Enhanced Ground Coverage & Versatility: Available in a 27’ width with two independent 12’ pickup beds (customizable to 15′ pickup beds). Designed to adapt to various row spacings and crop conditions.

🌱 Field & Soil Protection: Reduces soil compaction by cutting required field passes in half. Ideal for no-till and regenerative farming, preserving soil structure and field health.

👷‍♂️ Reduced Labor Requirements: Fewer passes mean fewer operators and machines, reducing labor costs. Enables larger fields to be covered faster with fewer personnel.
