A front attachment for a self-propelled combine harvester for harvesting stalked crop includes a number of intake conveyor mechanisms are arranged side by side, each of which exhibiting grooved conveyor wheels that rotate about a substantially vertical rotational axis. Snapping units are located downstream of the intake conveyor mechanisms in the direction of crop flow are formed with snapping rollers extending horizontally and transversely to the direction of travel. A transverse conveyor is equipped with opposing auger sections via which harvested fruits are drawn together in the center of the front attachment and fed from there to a feed rake. The grooved conveyor wheels of the individual intake conveyor mechanisms include, on the outer circumference thereof, radially extending driving elements. The driving elements engage via sections thereof into guide channels to pick up and convey plant stalks. The guide channels are equipped with end sections that guide the stalked crop in the direction of the center of the front attachment.
