The HT-Cress harvester has been specifically developed for the harvesting of water cress. It can even be used while overhead sprinklers are activated.
In use, the operator typically straddles the row and nudges the harvester forward with his body, so leaving hands free. As the watercress is cut it moves up the conveyor, where the operator gathers the crop into bundles and packs them into a collection bin.
There is a top fence across the conveyor to bunch the crop if the operator can’t keep up. Although the HT-Cress is supplied with crop pick up fingers, operators may prefer to go up each row ‘heaping’ up the sides with a broom before harvesting. This seems to work well.
Also available as a self propelled model, and / or with 24V DC power to drive the cutter bar and belt (plus wheels in the case of the self propelled model).
