Another carrot harvesting scene observed yesterday after work:

These are industrial carrots, they are harvested in a very interesting three phase system:

1st defoliating (with the Schüter on row crop wheels and the Grimme KS3000) defoliator - we call it Kraut-Schläger therefore KS)

2nd topping/"polishing" (with the John Deere 6420 on row crops and the Grimme KP1700 - we call it Kraut-Putzer therefore KP)

3rd harvesting with the Fendt 820 and the Grimme SE150 modified for carrot harvest
