Best Answer

In this case, the word "head" is an abbreviation for header. A header is the implement mounted to the front of a combine harvester to reap and gather the crop for threshing in the middle part of the machine. A row crop header is a header designed specifically for harvesting crops which are planted in individual rows. In the midwestern US, this is typically corn. A row crop header for harvesting corn can be seen in the related link below. I just randomly picked one brand of combine harvester -- no implication pro or con to the brand.

The 853 A is newer and more improved, than the 853. The size is the same, both are 8 row heads. this statement is wrong and 853 head is just made to combine corn but an 853 A can combine anything from corn to sunflowers but they are both 8 row heads. The 853 was the early version of an 8 row 30 inch row crop bean head. The 853A is the later version of the same head. The main difference was servicabilty. Both could also harvest sunflowers.
