Abstract:
A tractor drawn mechanical tobacco harvester in which the defoliating apparatus is pivotable as a unit to accommodate changes in terrain and variations in the alignment of the tobacco plants within the row of plants being harvested. The defoliating apparatus is selectively positionable to defoliate different rows of tobacco plants without a change in the position of the tractor. A novel defoliating apparatus is also disclosed.
