A John Deere 8600 is a self-propelled forage harvester, a machine designed to cut, process, and collect forage crops—primarily corn and grass—for silage and animal feed production. John Deere is a globally recognized manufacturer of agricultural machinery serving farming operations across a wide range of scales and crop types.
This 2016 model is equipped with a kernel processor, enabling it to crack or process corn kernels during harvesting for improved digestibility in livestock feed. The machine features dual cutterhead configurations: one cutterhead fitted with 48 extra-wide corn knives for efficient corn stalk processing, and a second cutterhead with 40 grass knives for forage grass harvesting. Both cutterheads are available separately, allowing operators to switch between crop types or maintain flexibility in their harvesting setup.
The unit is located in New York, USA, and is offered in used condition at $219,900.
