Abstract
A harvester for infield collection of substantially whole cane comprising a drive unit, a removable billet thrower and chute and a feed and billeter module being a two row unit which may be inserted under the chassis and secured by pivot couplings to corresponding mounts. The harvester collects whole cane and throws billeted cane along with trash into an infield transporter which then transports this to a centralised trash separator. Single row modules align single row feed and billeting units may pivot independently of each other. Assemblies are arranged to float and follow the ground surface over which the harvester moves and to this end each of the assemblies is biased into floating contact with the ground by reason of one or more spring assemblies.
