Dumb, I guess, but I don't know the difference. I think maybe a swather cuts and windrows, such as for small grains? A cutter conditioner or mower conditioner cuts and has rollers which crimp stems to speed up drying for crops such as hay??? Am I somewhat right or totally wrong? I looked at this site for ads for a swather and also on tractorhouse. Neither has any swather for sale.
Harvesting oats is a problem for me due to (sometimes) weeds and rain just at the time to combine standing oats. I'm thinking that cutting, windrowing a bit prior to dead ripe and then using a pickup attachment for a combine might be better. Agree? Where would somebody find a pickup attachment for a John Deere 55 combine? Where would someone find a swather? Thanks for advice. kelly
