Basics
- This page aims to cover the various Farm Equipment / Forestry Equipment required for harvesting Tree Nuts
Overall Process
- Ground Preparation
- Mowing
- Raking / Leaf Vacuum use (the latter may exclude stray pre-agitation harvest which would be of use)
- Agitation
- Typically with a Tree Shaker (Could also have an integrated Umbrella -like collector potentially), although manual agitation (or letting the process occur naturally) could be done, albeit with more harvest time and/or less yield
- Collection
Main Specialized Equipment
Tree Shakers
Nut Collectors
- Rotary Nut Collector (Mesh Cage Style, Manual or Vehicle Mounted)
- Rotary Nut Sweeper + Hopper System
- Reach Extender / similar more specialized tool
