Mechanized harvesting of dates in Reagan

The head of the mechanization department of the North Kerman Agricultural Jihad Organization, on the sidelines of a visit to the mechanization of palm orchards in the city, said: For the first time in Kerman province in the east of the province, a mechanization machine has been purchased and is operating in the orchards.

Hassan Lahsaei continued: Considering that dates are one of the strategic products of the country and in order to obtain high quality dates, farmers have to perform 11 operations to obtain dates. By installing this device in the gardens, the work of farmers will be easier.

He added: Due to the fact that the pollination stage and the greed of the trees are the hard work of palm trees, with the establishment of this device, the work of farmers will be facilitated.

The presence of these machines in the orchards is a necessity, which was successfully done experimentally in the palm orchards of the eastern part of the province in Reagan, Lhasai said.
