Is it a combine or is it a self-propelled forage harvester? Actually it is both and the result of work between Dutch hemp grower HempFlax and local John Deere dealer Groenoord. The modified six-walker W660i separates hemp stalks, leaves and seed separately, and at the same time. Called the Double Cut Combine, the rear spout and blower come from a John Deere SPFH. Up front the combine carries two headers – the standard cutter bar and a maize chopper. The details of how it all works, and how much it costs, are inside the latest issue of Profi.
