Corn picking is on the ear, shelling is either with a combine or picker with sheller attatchment. That I have only see a couple of those at shows, never a working unit. Cut corn is with a corn binder and silage corn is chopping. And we combine wheat and beans. No cutting ahead of combine on wheat, never saw a pickup head work. Few old ones in junk from when it was thought you had to cut swath and dry red clover before combining it but I proved them false. Dad thought it had to be that way but I was seeing how much seed we lost, I got him convinced to try direct cut and never went back. Neighboe one year thought he was going to be smart and swathed his wheat to get double crop beans in sooner, did not make it for that as rains came as soon as the wheat was swathed and spoiled all his wheat in the swath. Never tried by anyone elce since. Wheat or oats with a grain binder was bind the crop as it was all tied up in bundles with twine that was half as thick as baler twine. Then after binding the crop you went to field and shocked the crop for a few months before the tresher came. Load hay was with a loose hay loader on the wagon, haul hay was with the buckrake from field to barn for the hay fork to put the loose hay in overhead mow. Dad got first combine when I was 2 years old and picker when I was 3 years old. Now 76.
