An Over-Row Harvester is a diesel powered machine that straddles a berry bush to harvest it's fruit. This machine is called an over-the row because the driver and work crew are on the top of the machine. This machine shakes the bush so only the ripe fruit falls onto the catcher plates and into a series of cups. These cups carry the fruit to a series of belts that transport the fruit to berry crates after being cleaned by air fans that remove unwanted leaves and debris. This model has produced the best yield at the lowest cost for all types of crops.
