Hi All,

I am currently translating a harvester manual and would appreciate any advice/suggestions on how to translate the above in the following context:

Discos de corte lateral: Auxiliam na colheita de cana crua e cana trançada, separando a linha de corte da rua lateral.

Many thanks in advance.

lodged cane

Permanent displacement of cereal or sugar cane plants from their vertical stance is called lodging. To compensate, the lodged plants compensate by curving upright again resulting in a mesh of interwoven stalks.
