- 1 - Abstract: The invention relates to a harvester of the riding type for tobacco or other leaf crop plants grown in parallel rows. The harvester comprises a vehicle of suitable height and width to span several plant rows. Primers' stations are suspended from the vehicle at a height from the ground suitable for the harvesting of the crop plants. One station is provided for each row. The vehicle has a platform positioned above plant height for an operator who manually transfers harvested leaves to a container located on the platform from conveyors provided at each of the stations for raising the leaves to the platform. The conveyors are positioned to par- tially surround the container at evenly spaced locations in order to minimize the total distance moved by the operator between the conveyors and the container. The vehicle has a lifting device used to interchange the container, when full, with an empty container and to unload the containers at the end of a row of plants.
