Abstract: A crop gathering apparatus includes a rear platform attachable across a front end of a harvesting machine header, row divider members laterally-spaced and mounted to and projecting forwardly from the rear platform for guiding crop material rearwardly toward the header, and rotatably-driven vertical rotary members laterally-spaced and mounted on the rear platform for conveying crop material across the rear platform to the header. Each row divider member has a forwardly-tapered front crop-engaging structure with rearward and forward sections. Each rearward section is hinged about a transverse axis to the rear platform to allow pivotal adjustment of the angle of the front crop-engaging structure relative to the rear platform. The forward section is hinged about a transverse axis to the rearward section and pivotally movable between extended and folded conditions.
