flag Australian farmers attend GRDC workshops to fine-tune harvesters, reducing crop loss and saving money.

flag A nationwide series of GRDC Harvester Set-Up Guide workshops helps Australian farmers boost harvester efficiency and cut crop losses. flag Experts stress that small adjustments—like proper header setup, cutter bar angles, and feeder house drum speed—can significantly reduce losses, especially in high-value crops like canola, where 3.2% loss equals over $44,000 across 1,000 hectares. flag Farmers benefit from guidance on optimizing chaff decks for weed seed management and using physical loss tests alongside sensors, as humidity and time of day affect results. flag Proper tuning of threshing and cleaning systems improves fuel efficiency, lowers operating costs—potentially saving $700 per hour—and allows faster harvests, helping avoid weather delays.
