Windrow Types
Crops can be laid into six types of windrows depending on crop conditions, machine settings, and weather conditions.
The following criteria determine windrow quality:
•
Weight Distribution:
Heads and stalks distributed evenly across full width of windrow.
•
Good Curing:
A loose, open windrow for better drying.
•
Good Weatherability:
A well-formed windrow that supports heads off the ground and holds together in extreme
weather conditions.
