| Abstract | ||||
| Leafy crops harvester prototype was modifying depending on the leafy crops characteristic like crop height leaves surface area crop stems. The prototype included frame, conveyor, collection box, and transmission system. Results provided the suitability of the modifying prototype to transportation and collecting leafy crops, the suitability of the modifying prototype was judged through the removal percentage, un-damaged percentage and losses percentage. | ||||
