IMPROVEMENTS IN AND RELATING TO HARVESTING APARATUS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The specification discloses harvesting apparatus comprising a main frame which is moveable relative to the ground. Power means are mounted on the main frame to provide power for the relative movement between the frame and the ground. At least one shaker head assembly is located on each side of a longitudinal horizontal axis through the frame. The or each shaker head assembly to one side of said longitudinal axis is located forwardly of the corresponding shaker head assembly on the other side of the horizontal axis such that the shaker head assemblies are positioned in a staggered relationship along the frame. A shaft attached to an output of each shaker head assembly is provided with at least one set of radially spaced harvesting fingers. These harvesting fingers, in use, come in contact with produce bearing plants or bushes as the main frame moves through or over the plants or bushes thus vibrating and shaking the plants or bushes to cause fruit berries or the like produce to be dislodged therefrom. This arrangement has the advantage of increasing the yield of harvested crops.
