A header for mowing stalk crops is equipped with several mowing and feed devices which are disposed on both sides of the longitudinal mid-plane of the header. Along the backs of the mowing and feed devices at each side of the header there is a transverse conveyor channel through which plants, harvested by the mowing and feed devices, are conveyed to the center of the header. At the center of the header deflecting conveying elements are disposed on both sides in front of a feed channel of a forage harvester and operate to deflect the plants to the rear so as to transfer them to the feed channel. The transverse conveying channels are disposed at an angle relative to the transverse direction. Preferably, an extension of an imaginary line lying along the transverse conveying channel at each side of the header intersects the opposite deflecting conveying elements at or behind a point where the deflecting conveying elements move to a greater extent rearward than toward the longitudinal mid-plane of the header. |
