As the latest soybean harvest draws to a close, many farmers have once again faced challenging weather conditions beyond their control. These conditions have resulted in yield losses – many of which could have been reduced.
In harsh conditions, the Crary Wind System (CWS) can make a real difference.
The Crary Wind System is designed to retrofit onto any fine-seed header, whether it is equipped with an auger or draper feeder system. This innovative solution has been independently tested at multiple venues under tough harvesting conditions.
The results speak for themselves
Independent tests conducted by Crary and combine harvester specialists have shown that the Crary Wind System significantly reduces harvest losses and increases overall yields.

What does this mean for you, the farmer?
Using the Crary Wind System delivers improved efficiency and better returns, even under less-than-ideal harvesting conditions.
How does the Crary Wind System work?
The Crary Wind System provides a constant high-velocity stream of air that is positioned over the cutter bar on a soybean header. This air stream keeps the crops feeding evenly into the combine by pushing crops back toward the auger or right onto the draper belt.
