Mechanical harvesting of sea buckthorn is difficult because of the characteristics of the fruit. The sea buckthorn "Moldova" was chosen for mechanical harvesting using vibration because it has large fruit, high productivity, and the detaching force of the fruit from the branch decreases with time. An inertial trunk shaker was used to harvest the fruit. Results show that operating capacities of 29-33 plants/h were achieved, and labour productivity was 132-148 kg/h, compared with 0.6-1.3 kg/h for manual harvesting.
