Geringhoff Corn Head

Geringhoff Corn Head COMBINES Headers 21-2-37 The last time FARM SHOW featured the German-built Geringhoff corn head that harvests corn and chops stalk at the same time, it was being distributed in North America by Joseph Christ, Bowmanville, Ontario. After Mr. Christl stopped handling it, the header was distributed by Huron Tractor Ltd., Exerter, Ontario, until about a year and a-half ago. Now, I thought FARM SHOW readers might be interested to know that we at Geringhoff U.S. recently became the exclusive North American distributor. We showed the head at the recent Iowa Power Farming Show at Des Moines, Iowa, and at the National Farm Machinery Show at Louisville, Ky., where it generated a lot of interest. The head features shredder-rollers that replace snap rollers. A six-row (22 or 30-in. spacings) sells for about $36,000.
