<\/a>weed wiper<\/td>\nWEED wiping is a relatively new concept of non-selective weed control for use late in
\nthe growing season. It is based on the principle of wiping (or brushing) a nonselective
\nherbicide directly onto unwanted tall weed plants that stand above crops
\nand pastures.
\nWick wipers, as they were then called, first became available in the 1980s, but never
\nsold in marketable quantities.<\/td>\n		GrassWorks<\/p>\n

Thrasher<\/div>\n<\/td>\n
The purpose of the thrasher is to remove the peanut pods from the plant. The peanut plants are first dug with the peanut digger and allowed to air dry for two-three days. Plants are then fed into the thrasher which has a rotary drum that essentially beats the pods off the peanut plant .<\/td>\nPeanut for Life.Thrasher<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Sorter<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Peanut pods (nuts) come in different sizes. Sizing of these pods is needed to reduce damaged kernels (seed) during the shelling operation. Screens for the in-shell sorter are interchangeable according to the general size of the peanuts being sorted. During a single operation, the sorter removes thrash and separates the pods into two grade sizes. Further pod grade size separations are possible using other screen sizes.<\/td>\nPeanut for Life.Sorter<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Sheller<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

The peanut sheller is a great labor saving device and is useful for shelling edible nuts and seed for planting.<\/td>\nPeanut for Life.Sheller<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Sizer<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

The kernel sizer can help ensure seed size uniformity for planting, and as well, uniformity in product appearance for marketing and uniformity of roast.<\/td>\nPeanut for Life.Sizer<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
