Is header loss a problem in drought damaged wheat that is thin and short? How about going through winter killed or drowned out patches? Also, how do they handle going through weedy patches, like kochia?
You get little stripper header loss if you push the header as hard as possible. Have had good results in drought damaged stuff that yield as little as 15 bu /a.
Very short wheat is a danger to the stripper rotor if your fields have rocks.
Weeds like kochia go through pretty good, upright weeds will often have part of the leaves stripped off with most of the plant still standing in the field, so less weeds go in the combine than direct cut stuff.
