Abstract: A peanut combine is provided with an improved thrashing or picking system having longitudinally spaced thrashing cylinders rotating at different speeds in combination with vine flow control apparatus for directing the vines through the thrashing chamber and for intercepting the vines as they are moved by the cylinders to cause greater shredding of the vines and more efficient detachment of the peanuts from the vines.
