That’s right, rubber gathering belts

Yeah, it’s caught the attention of a number of visitors at the Farm Progress Show, Oxbo International’s corn head with rubber gathering belts. Mike Miller, Director of International Marketing says the technology has been used for years in sweet corn and seed corn, so why not design a corn head for corn farmers . Miller says it’s all about gentle handling of the ear.
