Damage is a major concern of reap harvesting. Damage is usually minimal if the harvesting equipment is kept clean and adjusted correctly for the crop.
The history of mechanical harvesting itself dates back to Cyrus McCormick's marketing of the mechanical reaper in the early 1840s.
Mechanical harvesting is the use of tractors, combines, mowers, corn harvesters among other machines to do the work of many people. They have replaced traditional methods of harvesting wheat, corn, fruits, vegetables, grasses and made large scale farming possible and efficient.
