JAGODA 300

Trailed Raspberry & Blueberry Harvester

The JAGODA 300, an over-the-row trailed blueberry harvester that has been designed to efficiently collect berries from plantations prepared for mechanical harvesting, Elevates your blueberry harvesting experience. Not just for blueberries, it’s a multi-crop harvester, conquering raspberries, haskap berries, blackberries, currants, aronia berries, and more. The harvester delivers a gentle mechanical harvest for well-trimmed, non-large trees like sour cherries, plums, and almonds in intensive orchards.

The blueberry harvester: Unmatched Efficiency for Blueberry Growers?

Benchmark Performance, Proven in the Field:

Optimizing harvesting time: at speeds ranging from 0.4 km/h to 1.8 km/h
Output harvest: 0.2 ha/h to 0.4 ha/h
Number of rotor picking heads: 2 x Type 920
Tractor capacity: Min 80 HP
Knowing that 90% to 95% of your berries reach your collection bins in pristine condition.

Plantation requirements:

Distance between Rows: min. 3 m ( depend on tractor size )
The height of the harvester can be regulated and the lowest position of the catcher plates is at 33 cm above the ground.
Adaptability for Various Terrains: Designed for flat or raised beds, trellis systems, potted plantations, and slopes, with wide-front tires ensuring reliable performance even in wet or muddy conditions
The crown has to be narrow to minimize the loss of the fruit. Wide crowns increase the loss when the catcher plates open around the bush.
The distance required at the end of the rows: min 6 m – 8 m.

Highest workmanship standard – The blueberry harvester is fully equipped:

Hydraulic Adjustable Picking Tunnel: Easily adjusts from 2.8 m to 3.4 m with a 60 cm lift range to suit different plantations, featuring an Automatic Ground-Adaptive System that raises the tunnel when the sensor detects ground contact.
Efficient Maneuverability with Steering Wheels: the harvester allows for a smaller turning radius, making manoeuvring on tight U-turns effortless
The harvester is equipped with a hydraulic platform for convenient fruit collection in both transport and working positions.
Wireless control: Operable up to 30 m away, from the tractor cabin or around the harvester.
Additional rear control panel: Enables full control of harvester functions for quick, easy adjustments during operation.
Drive and working lights: for safe operation in low-light conditions

Reforming Blueberry Harvesting : Blueberries for Fresh Market (Post-Sorting) & IQF with Minimal Green Fruit

Innovative Vertical Shaking System for Damage-Free Post-Harvest Plantations:The JAGODA 300 blueberry harvester features with 2 vertical shakers 920, ensuring efficient yet gentle shaking that is far more considerate to shrubs than conventional shaking heads. The ability to adjust the shaking force by regulating the rotating weight contributes to an impressive harvest rate of over 98% for ripe blueberries.
Innovative Catcher Plates Design for Minimal Fruit Loss: Strategically positioned catcher plates around blueberry bushes, with adjustable height and incline settings for adaptability to crown widths, contribute to groundbreaking fruit loss percentages ranging between 2% and 8%.
Effective Fruit Cleaning with Dual High-Speed Fans: Two high-speed fans operating at 1000 turns/min ensure the efficient removal of leaves and impurities during the harvesting process.
Single-Drop Fruit Delivery System: Protects fruit quality during the harvesting process
Integrated Mini Sorting Table: Enables on-platform pre-sorting for cleaner, high-quality blueberries directly during harvest.
High Harvest Capacity: Holds 50–60 full boxes and up to 50 empty ones. Features a hydraulic foldable deck with height & width adjustment for small boxes, and allows easy attachment of rear bin trailers such HS3 for extra storage.

Improving Blueberry Harvesting with Innovative Electrohydraulic Auto-Positioning Technology

The system is designed to enhance blueberry harvester operation by automating positioning and height control, reducing operator workload, and ensuring optimal harvesting conditions. It consists of independent but complementary Auto-Guidance and Height Control systems

System Overview

Feature	Function
Auto-Guidance Sensors	Track plantation rows, control harvester steering
Height Sensors & Plates	Maintain correct harvester height above the ground
Pre-Controller	Displays wheel alignment for manual steering
Safety Lockout	Prevents accidental activation during maintenance
Obstacle Detection	Stops conveyor lowering when obstacles are detected
Manual Control Mode	Allows full operator control, deactivates automation
Auto-Reactivation	Automatically resumes automation when conditions are met

1. Auto-Guidance System (Self-Steering and Track plantation rows)

The Auto-Guidance System ensures the blueberry harvester follows plantation rows with automatic steering. It incorporates advanced 4 electromechanical sensors. To enhance stability and precision while preventing unnecessary movement deviations. Operators benefit from a pre-controller with visual indicators, allowing seamless switching between manual and automatic control, ensuring both precision and ease of use.

2. Height Control System (Ground-Adaptive Conveyor Height Adjustment)

The Height Control System ensures optimal conveyor positioning for efficient blueberry harvesting by dynamically adapting to terrain variations. It utilizes sensor plates to detect ground changes, triggering hydraulic adjustments for precise height control. Built-in safety features prevent accidental activation during maintenance and detect obstacles to avoid potential damage. Operators can seamlessly switch between manual and automatic control, with automation reactivating as needed.

3. Control System & Signal Processing

The Control System ensures seamless automation by processing sensor inputs for precise harvester adjustments. A relay-based controller interprets signals from the auto-guidance and height control systems, activating for necessary corrections. Operators can manually override automation, with the system reactivating automatically when sensor conditions are met, maintaining a balance between manual control and automated efficiency.
