<p>Harvesting apparatus (10) has a support structure (12), a plurality of driven rotatable members (14) by which the support structure (12) can be moved, and a body support element (16) supported by the support structure (12). The body support element (16) is able to support a picker (22) and is slidable relative to the support structure (12) so that, when the harvesting apparatus (10) is moving in a first direction, the body support element (16) can be selectively positioned relative to the support structure (12) to optimise the position of the picker (22) relative to the occurrence of produce to be picked. Preferably, a conveyor system (18) and collection area (20) are also included on the support structure (12). The conveyor system (18) enables transportation of produce placed thereon by the picker to the collection area (20) for packing. A method is also provided.</p> |
