Stalk Devastator Best Buy
Allen Meissner, M & P Farms, Bartlett, Texas, says the Yetter 5000 Stalk Devastator does an amazing job of demolishing corn stalks to the point where they disintegrate, and a person can’t even tell where the rows are in a field. “It completely lives up to its name,” Meissner says. “I’m glad we threw the old stalk stompers in the scrap pile.”
The Devastator uses flat steel roller bars that knock over stalks and crimp them as the combine moves through the field. It breaks up stalks, which is completely different than a stomper-style attachment that just pushes the stalks over. Stalks behind the Devastator don’t damage equipment tires and tend to decompose faster because water and air can get into the stalks and help them disintegrate.
Illinois farmer Nate Young has similar comments about the Devastator on his combine. He says, “We tried stomper-style attachments and were completely disappointed. Then we switched to the 5000 Stalk Devastator and saw complete tire protection for all our equipment in the fields as well as much better stalk decomposition. When it came time to upgrade corn heads, we knew they would definitely be equipped with Devastators.”
