Efficient Tomato Harvesting Practices Proposed by UC Study
Berkeley researchers from the University of California College of Agriculture report that 80 percent of total tomato harvest time is spent picking. They estimate that improved methods could cut labor and costs by about 20 percent, saving roughly 5 million dollars. Recommendations include handling plants lightly, using rotary motions, palm picking, two-handed lifting, keeping hands close, resting a knee, minimizing reach, moving around plant outlines, and picking directly into lugs with early cull removal.
