As a consequence, the design and operation of such equipment requires increased investment in research and development to enhance their operational and performance characteristics (see also, Human and Animal Powered Machinery).
Typically, harvesting represents the final stage of crop production at field level and essentially brings the farming season to a close. In many cases, harvesting is the most labor intensive farm operation and not infrequently associated with the drudgery of rural life. The development of machines that could successfully harvest most if not all agricultural crops has been greeted with enthusiasm. And yet challenges remain.
