Automatic row-guiding method for maize combine harvester based on situation of missing plants
Disclosed is an automatic row-guiding method for maize combine harvester based on the situation of missing plants, comprising: S1, guiding calculation of missing plants according to a traveling speed of a harvester and output values of left and right detecting sensors; and S2, performing guiding calculation of missing plants if there is a situation of missing plant, obtaining a first target turning angle of an electric steering wheel; or obtaining a second target turning angle according to the output values of the left and right detecting sensors if there is no situation of missing plant, then adjusting the steering wheel in terms of controlling direction, and finally, realizing automatic row-guiding of the combine harvester.

Stomping shoe assembly for an agricultural harvester header
A stomping shoe assembly for an agricultural harvester header including a stomping shoe having a substantially planar proximal end for connecting to an agricultural harvester header, and a curved distal end for engaging crop. The assembly further includes a stalk cutter having an elongated body mounted to the stomping shoe and extending from the stomping shoe from the curved distal end to the substantially planar proximal end. Also provided is an agricultural harvester header including the stomping shoe assembly.
CORN HEADER CONFIGURED TO REDUCE KERNEL LOSSES
A corn harvesting header (24) includes a powered row unit (38) and a gathering hood (98). The row unit (38) defines a longitudinal crop row path that extends in a generally rearward crop travel direction and receives a corn row as the header (24) is advanced along the corn row. The gathering hood (98) partly overlies the row unit (38) and includes a laterally extending dam (132) that restricts corn from moving forwardly. The dam (132) at least partly defines a gutter to receive corn kernels and direct the corn kernels rearwardly.
HARVESTER IMPLEMENT DEGREE OF CROP PROCESSING SENSOR SYSTEM
A harvester implement includes a crop processor positioned to receive the crop material from a head unit and process the crop material to alter a characteristic of the crop material, e.g., a cut length or a kernel processing score. An image sensor assembly is positioned downstream of the crop processor along a flow path of the crop material. The image sensor assembly is operable to capture a post-processing image of the crop material. A computing device is operable to execute a crop processing analysis algorithm to receive the post-processing image of the crop material from the image sensor assembly, and to analyze the post-processing image to determine an actual degree of processing to the characteristic of the crop material achieved by the crop processor. The computing device may then communicate a notification signal to an output indicating the actual degree of processing to the characteristic of the crop material.
Automatic header latch
An attachment system for an agricultural vehicle including a feeder housing and a header. The attachment system includes at least one feeder connecting member configured for being located on and movably connected to the feeder housing, and at least one header connecting member configured for being located on the header. The at least one feeder connecting member is automatically connectable and securable to the at least one header connecting member as the feeder housing lifts the header.
REMOTELY ADJUSTABLE ROW DIVIDER FOR AN AGRICULTURAL HARVESTER
A header for an agricultural vehicle includes: a header frame; at least one crop remover carried by the header frame; a plurality of row dividers pivotably carried by the header frame; and at least one divider lifter coupled to at least one of the row dividers and configured to activate in order to pivot the coupled at least one row divider relative to the header frame. The at least one divider lifter is configured to be selectively activated by a remote controller.
