Pumpkin Harvest Equipment
A Slovenian company showed off its innovative pumpkin and squash-harvesting equipment at Agritechnica.
  Kovastvo Prelog Alojz in Verzej says its equipment makes large-scale production of pumpkins more economical. Its equipment can also be used for custom harvesting.
  The company's "pumpkin plow" is a V-shaped front-mount blade that moves pumpkins into windrows. Then the harvester runs down the rows. A large wheel fitted with sharp spikes pokes into the pumpkins, lifting them up to be dumped into a wagon hopper.
