West Texas
It has several cylinders with bars that have teeth across it that separate the peanuts from the vines. Peanuts then fall onto what's called the stemmer saws that take off any remaining stems. then air blows them up into the basket.
Some peanut combines use straw walkers and sieves but Amadas uses a disc system and beaters that separates hay from peanuts.
