<p>In order to form a double windrow of a grass crop after it has been cut, a windrow grouper (12) is mounted behind a mower conditioner unit (10). The windrow grouper is in the form of an upright rotating drum (40) and skirt (66) which is provided with crop-engaging tines (68), and is positioned so as to deflect the cut crop into the double windrow when the crop is still in flight from the mowing unit (10) and before it has any substantial contact with the ground.
<??>The windrow grouper (12) can be swung clear of the crop delivered by the mowing unit (10) to enable an initial windrow to be laid, and then swung back into the flight path of the crop to form the double windrow. </p> |
