Harvesting Pole

A harvesting pole, also known as a fruit picker, is a tool used to harvest fruits, nuts, and other crops from higher branches without the need for a ladder. It is typically a long pole with a basket or wire cage at the end that can be used to grab and pull the fruit from the tree or bush.

To use a harvesting pole, the user first must extend the pole to the desired length and secure it in place. They then position the basket or cage at the end over the fruit they wish to harvest and use a pulling motion to detach it from the branch and release it into the basket.

It is important to have a good grip on the pole to avoid dropping the fruit or damaging the plant in the process. Additionally, it is recommended to harvest fruits when they are ripe, as this makes them easier to remove from the tree or bush.

Overall, a harvesting pole can greatly improve efficiency and safety in fruit harvesting, reducing the risk of falls or other accidents associated with climbing ladders or reaching too high.
