The Catch All Harvest Concept is a netting based harvest system.

The netting is placed under the harvested agricultural product and a container is placed under the net to gather fallen, ripe produce from the crop.

It is modular. It can be infinitely large (netting systems connected in a row) or placed under a single plant.

The netting is designed to be "slopped" like a funnel, to encourage fruit, produce, nuts, etc. to fall into a centralized container.

It is designed to be attached to the branches or underside of the agricultural product.

This container can be separated from the netting and moved by a farm vehicle (tractor) to a collection vehicle (flatbed - stacked containers or dump truck etc.)

This system -

  • Allows for immediate collection of all ripe fruit, produce, nuts etc.
  • Prevents fruit from falling to the ground, rotting and becoming wasted.
  • I estimate a savings of 40 - 60 % of the wasted crop would be saved.
  • This can be adapted to most agricultural industries.
  • Deployed on any terrain.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
