Jim,
One way to set the combines is to check the "vines" coming out of the back of the combines to see if there are shelled peas coming out the back or peas unshelled left in the pods. If we spread them then I could not do that and I would not be able to walk behind each combine. Also, we harvest in some stoney areas and spreaders would create dangerous projectiles in the field. I am not a fan of this thinking but it is pretty much a "this is the way we have done this for years, so that's how we do it." It hard to add a $500 spreader on a $400,000 combine and justify the cost. HaHa, just kidding.
