A spreading device is disclosed which is particularly suitable for use with drum mowers. The spreading device includes a crop divider of a unique shape and configuration which extends in front of the forward mowing direction of the mower and which is positioned between the two mower drums, or between each pair of mower drums in a large scale mower. The crop divider includes two fins extending in an angled relationship with respect to a main body portion thereof forming a Y-shaped configuration when viewed from the top. A pair of feeder chains is connected to each of the drum mowers in the pair for moving the cut crop through the mower and adjacent to the crop divider fins.
