Read what the academic community says about the value of Crop Lifters:

Here's what our customers are saying . . .

"I don’t know if it is possible to love a crop lifter… but I do. Your lifters allowed me to recover much of the grain left in a field trampled by the fire crews while fighting the recent County Fire."

"Here’s a sense of how trampled this field of normally tall heirloom wheat was."

"And here’s how close it came to having the whole field go up in smoke. The adjacent farm looks like it lost most everything, including equipment. The fire crews were, and are, amazing."
