How long does it take to harvest a field with a combine harvester?

It depends on the size of the field and the size of the combine harvester, but many farmers prefer to size their operation so that it only takes between a partial day and two days to harvest one field.

What are facts about grains?
When grain is ripe it is cut from its stalks. This is called reaping. After reaping the grain must be separated from the stalks and chaff (waste). This is called threshing. After threshing the grain must be cleaned and separated from the husks. This is called winnowing. In some places grain is still reaped in the ancient way with a long curved blade called a sickle. In most developed countries wheat and other cereals are usually harvested with a combine harvester. A combine harvester is a machine that reaps the grain, threshes it, cleans it and then pours it into bags or reservoirs. The first horse-drawn combine was used in Michigan in 1836, but modern self-propelled harvesters only came into use in the 1940s. If the grain is damp it must be dried immediately after harvesting so it does not rot. This is always true of rice. If the grain is too damp to harvest, a machine called a windrower may cut the stalks and lay them in rows to dry in the wind. They will then be threshed and cleaned. A successful harvest is traditionally celebrated with a harvest festival. The cailleac or last sheaf of corn is said to be the spirit of the field. It is made into a harvest doll, drenched with water and saved for the spring planting. Hoped I helped :)

When was the combine harvester invented?
It was invented in the U.S. in 1834 by Hiram Moore. It was pulled by a team of horses, and the running gear was driven off of the wheels. So if it was muddy, the wheels slipped and the combine plugged up. Later they were pulled by steam engines, and were fueled by the straw that was being cut. The first readily manufactured combine was built by Massey Harris in Canada (named Clippers) around 1937.answer 2The combine harvester, or simply combine, is a machine that harvests grain crops.The first harvesting machines were devised by Patrick Bell in Scotland and Cyrus Hall McCormick in the United States. McCormick invented his first reaper at the age of 22 and tested it in a neighbor's field in 1831. It worked well, but was so noisy that it frightened the horses, and someone had to walk beside the team to keep them calm!Some late 19th-century combines were powered by steam, but in 1912 the gasoline-powered internal combustion engine began to appear on some models. In the 1930s the "combine" shifted away from horse-drawn to tractor-drawn, though it was not uncommon in wheat country to still see teams of up to 40 horses pulling reaping machines.Self-propelled grain harvesters, better known as combines, are the norm today, machines that cut the stalks and feed them through a thresher, which separates the wheat kernels from the stalks and expels the chaff out the rear of the machine. John Deere and International Harvester are among the most common brands.History about a combine hasverter is a long history and aswers might vary.
