Small or big, farming is changing in Odisha and Andhra Pradesh. And thanks to farmers for believing in Godabari Agro’s advanced technology, which saves time, increases productivity, and reduces overall costs. As you know, one of the biggest game changers in farming is the combine harvester. Instead of spending days or weeks harvesting manually, farmers can now harvest crops like rice, wheat, maize and pulses in just a few hours. In states like Andhra Pradesh and Odisha, where rice and wheat are staple crops, the demand for multi-crop combine harvesters is growing. This is where a multi-crop combine harvester for small farms comes in.
In this blog, we will walk you through the elements of a multi-crop combine, what makes it perfect for small farms, and everything else you must know about it.
But first…
What do you mean by a multi-crop combine harvester?
So. A multi-crop combine harvester is a machine that harvests more than one crop. Unlike traditional harvesters built for only rice or wheat, multi-crop models are versatile. They can handle Rice, typically in paddy fields, under wet conditions, as well as Wheat, typically in dry and tough stalks, and other items like Maize, Soybeans, and Pulses.
This 3-in-1 system offers a time-saving and cost-effective solution, particularly for farmers in Andhra Pradesh and Odisha, where multiple cropping is a common practice. It does three main tasks: reaping, which means cutting the crop from the field; threshing, where it separates the grains from stalks; and finally winnowing, which means cleaning the grains and removing chaff.
Why is it suitable for Small farm lands?
We know that many farmers do not want to invest in large machinery. More specifically, because it may be costly and more than that, what’s the use of a big harvester in a small field? Well, that’s why we introduce the compact, affordable, and best combine harvester machine for rice and wheat that suits smaller-sized farms, while also giving the following benefits:
- Cost savings
These multi-crop combine harvesters reduce the need for big labour teams during harvest season. - Time efficiency
It is time-efficient, meaning a job that takes 10–12 days to complete manually can be finished in 1–2 days with no extra effort. - Better yields
It reduces grain loss during harvesting, which means more profit. - Multi-crop use
As the name suggests, it’s a multi-crop. This means you invest once and use it for both rice and wheat seasons. - Easy maneuvering
Finally, the smaller models can navigate small or uneven fields, making it easy for both amateur and professional farmers to use them efficiently and to their full potential.
What is a good combine harvester for wheat and rice?
Well, as a pro in this game, you already know that both rice and wheat require different handling. Rice is grown in muddy fields and has higher moisture content, while wheat stalks are dry and harder. That’s why a good combine harvester for rice and wheat should have a strong threshing mechanism to handle stiff wheat stalks with mud-proof tracks for paddy harvesting. Apart from that, it should have an efficient grain separation system to minimise loss. The Godabari Agro combine harvester features a fuel-efficient engine that helps reduce costs and requires minimal maintenance for long-term use.
Now, if you wonder whether these combine harvesters are of any use when your small land starts expanding to a bigger one, then the answer is most definitely yes! Many farmers begin with small plots where compact machines are sufficient. But as your farm grows, say from 5 acres to 15 or even 25 acres, it also starts challenging the harvesting methods. At that point, the same small machine may not be enough to handle the workload efficiently. But that’s where Godabari Agro’s harvesting equipment for medium-sized rice farms comes in again.

It can give you distinguished results like this:
- Scalable efficiency
These harvesters can cover more acres per hour, even as your landholding increases. - Less dependency on labour
We know larger fields require more workers if harvested manually, but our combine helps keep costs under control. - Better timing
These harvesters ensure all crops are harvested on time, with no losses due to rain or delayed threshing. - Multi-crop advantage
It can harvest rice, wheat, maize, and pulses, making it ideal for farmers in Andhra Pradesh and Odisha who grow multiple crops in a year. - Residue management
It comes with attachments like straw choppers, making it easy to handle post-harvest straw, save time and prepare land quickly for the next crop.
Bottom Line
Godabari Agro’s multi-crop combine harvester for small farms and medium farms works efficiently throughout the year, with minimal maintenance. And that is not even the best part. For states like Odisha and Andhra Pradesh, cultivating rice and wheat can get complicated, and that is where our compact harvester comes in, allowing you to complete 10 days’ worth of tasks just in 2 to 3 days.
So, whether you want to cultivate rice or wheat, our versatile machinery is always at your service.
