Discover the Drago difference for yourself

Today’s hybrids are bred to yield more, dry faster, shell easier, and withstand high populations. Yet, most corn head brands have done little to harvest them to their full yield potential. For more than 25 years, Drago corn heads have offered unmatched harvest innovations. With a Drago out front, you can be confident you’re capturing the most of your hard-earned yield every year.

Drago Durability

Higher quality steel, gears milled to incredible tolerances, independent component clutches and more help create a corn head that not only performs better, but works longer.

Drago excels in down corn
