A hydraulic governor valve coordinates the flow of crop material to a processing unit with the rate of processing of material therein. A gear driven pump is powered by the processing unit in direct relation therewith to drive a conveyor hydraulic motor. The flow responsive governor valve diverts flow to a reservoir when the processing unit is overloaded and to the conveyor motor otherwise to coordinate delivery of crop material with processing of same.
