I don't know the answers to these questions but would like to. These are combine questions.

1. What company was the first to introduce electrohydraulics in combines?

2. Who was first with hydrostatic drive?

3. Variable control ground speed?

4. Auger-type header?

5. Variable control for cylinder speed?

6. Stone protection?

7. Yield monitor?

8. Shaft monitors?

9. Rasp bars in lue of spike tooth cylinders?

10. 12 row corn head? (who was first with 6 & 8 row also?)

If you don't know who was first you might know when Deere came up with these features. Thanks in advance.

If you are really into ag equipment history find a old copy of "The Century of The Reaper" published by the Farmall boys in 1930 something. I think it was the 100 year anniversary of IH. It is so biased toward IH it is kinda corny but it is fascinating story about how cutthroat the ag eqipment market was at the turn of the century. Patent protection wasn't good for much so 'may the best marketeer win' prevailed.
