Based on the identified problems and to reduce the physical working stress of farmworkers in harvesting operation an Ergo-Friendly harvesting system was developed, which comprised of aluminum telescopic pipe, clutch operated cutting mechanism, micro-camera, display, battery, fruit collection net, and ergonomically designed belt.
