The machine has a normally upright, open top, rotary tub provided with a high speed, disintegrating rotor below the floor of the tub that projects through an opening in the floor to progressively reduce the mass of crop materials into disintegrated form as the tub rotates to agitate the mass. The disintegrating rotor serves also as a means for blowing and forcibly projecting the disintegrated materials out a discharge spout as disintegration occurs, without the aid of an intermediate conveyor or the like. The tub is mounted on a wheeled chassis in such a manner that it can be tipped essentially ninety degrees from its normal operating position to a lowered position in which the top of the tub is essentially vertically disposed, thereby permitting the tub to scoop up and load into itself a mass of materials as the machine is backed toward and into the materials. After then swinging the tub back up to its operating position, the mass may be transported by the machine to a desired site for disintegration, whereupon rotation of the tub and activation of the rotor commences the disintegration process.
