Ear lifter for a mower of a harvesting machine with finger guards attached to a cutter bar. The ear lifter has a support rail with a first end for attachment to the cutter bar, a stalk lifter connected to a second end of the support rail and a locking lever, wherein the locking lever has a support surface for support on one of the finger guards and can be fixed in at least two positions relative to the support rail in order to set a distance between the finger guard and the support rail.

A reel for use in an agricultural header has an axis of rotation and comprises a bat and a finger. The bat is mounted to rotate around the axis of rotation to gather crop, and has a non-circular cross-sectional profile. The finger is mounted to the bat to rotate with the bat around the axis of rotation to gather crop. The finger comprises a tine and a clamshell mount to which the tine is coupled and that surrounds the bat to mount the finger to the bat against rotation about the bat.

The invention relates to a support bar (5) of a crop lifter (10) for harvested crops, having a main direction of extension (X). A portion (12) designed as a sliding skid is arranged between a first end (8) and a second end (9) of the support bar (5). The invention also relates to a crop lifter (10) for a cutter bar of a harvesting machine, comprising a stalk lifter and a support bar (5) carrying said stalk lifter.

Apparatus, systems and methods are provided for monitoring yield while harvesting grain. Grain released from paddles on the clean grain elevator chain of a harvester contacts a flow sensor which reports the rate of grain flow through the clean grain elevator. In some embodiments a brush is mounted to the chain and disposed to clean the flow sensor surface. In other embodiments a bucket mounted to the clean grain elevator chain releases grain against the flow sensor at a rate dependent on a grain property.

A finger support for the fingers of a rotating drum conveyor (e.g. feed drum) and agricultural harvesting head includes first and second finger supports with interleaved ri
