Abstract
A corn saver apparatus removably attached to a self-propelled commercially available corn harvester which facilitates harvesting of corn growing in a field. The apparatus comprises an agricultural implement which augments a standard corn harvester by picking up stalks of corn which have fallen, and further by moving broken stalks of corn into the harvesting apparatus. The apparatus of the present invention is removably mounted in overlying relationship respective to the gathering apparatus of a conventional corn harvester and significantly increases the yield realized from a field of corn by avoiding the waste of corn which heretofore has been left lying on the ground.
