Abstract
Mango is generally harvested by shaking and beating of branches which causes cracking and bruising of fruits, which results in about 8-10% losses at farm level. ICAR-CISH, Lucknow has developed a light-weight, user friendly mango harvester for reducing drudgery and harvesting losses. Fruit loss was observed to be 40% less with new harvester as compared with the old metallic harvester.Downloads
