  Save on labour while harvesting fresh market beans,
  peas, and corn by going mechanical this year.
   

  FOR THE SWEET CORN MARKET

  

  Pixall CP100 Corn Puller

  A one-row sweet corn puller is a gentler way to harvest. This method produces results comparable to hand picking.

  Pixall Pull-pix one-row sweet corn picker

   Pixall Pull-Pix one-row sweet corn picker.  Pixall and Byron merged with Oxbo Corporation in August 1998.  Same great quality products!

  FOR THE GREEN AND YELLOW BEAN
  PEA, BUTTERBEAN AND LIMA MARKET
  

  

  Oxbo BH100 one row green bean picker

   OXBO  BH100. With this unit and a 40 hp tractor. This machine gently harvests all beans.

  EVEN FEEDER and VIBRATING TABLE

  A perfect addition to the BH100.The vibratory sorting table eliminates field debris such as rocks and leaves, as well as removing any pin or broken beans.

  The even feeder eliminates one worker from the bean packing line.  The feeder will run unattended for five minutes, filling a 5 bushell hopper.  One worker can fill the hopper and return to packing beans saving hundreds in labour.

  As you can see harvesting and processing sweet corn can be very mechanical when done on a commercial scale. However sometime just husking by hand and boiling in water is just as sweet. The AGTV Network will continue our Equipment Highlight in 2012.
