combine harvesters
Field harvesting vehicles
Combine harvesters are agricultural machines that harvest grain crops—cutting, threshing, and cleaning in a single pass through the field.
The name reflects the combining of operations that once required separate equipment.
Also called simply combines: The combine harvesters worked through the night to beat the rain.
