'w" One of the most interesting pro- jects, from the apple producers' point 'of view, being worked on by aï,ricultural engineers at the K erptville College of Agricul- tural Technology is a machine which will speed up apple picking Although it may be some time be- fore the machine is marketed, the first test model shows ecosider- able promise. The apple combine, being de- veloped, is designed mainly to im- prove the picking of table fruit. The hig'h c2sts of hiring pickers and the growing scarcity of this type of labour were factors ini, the project. Growers are asking for a machine which will reduce pick- ingcosts aàid enable them to get their produce to market quickly, and in good condition. The earliest possible date the machine may be ready for mass production, and availabl e on the market is the fail of 1969.
