Special Crop Equipment

Special Crop equipment includes items such as cutting equipment, secateurs and air compressors, potato harvesters, orchard tractors and drip irrigation equipment for special crops. Many of the crops must be planted, weeded, harvested and processed by hand. Because of this, the amount of labour involved is usually time consuming for any one grower. Special crop equipment must be purchased for such tasks such as special drying, grinding or distilling equipment.

Special Crop equipment for Sale in the UK

Popular Special Crop equipment for sale in the UK includes cotton pickers. There are two types of pickers in use today. One is the "stripper" picker, primarily found in use in Texas. It removes not only the lint from the plant, but a fair deal of the plant matter as well (such as unopened bolls). The other type of picker is the "spindle" picker. It uses rows of barbed spindles that rotate at high speed and remove the seed-cotton from the plant. The seed-cotton is then removed from the spindles by a counter-rotating doffer and is then blown up into the basket.
