A sugar cane chain piler includes a plurality of endless roller chains that are supported so as to define a forwardly curved profile. A head shaft supports a plurality of transversely spaced sprockets at top region of the piler which are aligned with a plurality of sprockets carried by a tail shaft located at a lower region of the piler. Each endless chain includes a plurality of conveyor tines that project outwardly from the chain. The head shaft is driven so that the tines engage cane stalks by rolling the stalks backwards into a pile being created as the loader vehicle carrying the piler is driven forward.
