As world markets change,
manufacturers like John Deere have to ensure that they follow
trends and that their customers get the right equipment for
their needs. Demand for conventional reciprocating knife
finger type cutter bar (sickle) Mower Conditioners has been
replaced by Self Propelled Windrowers. Working with one of its
associate suppliers, John Deere have again made these machine
available for the smaller area forage producer where the
performance of a Self Propelled Windrower cannot be justified.
