Abstract: Systems, including apparatus and methods, for harvesting a product with a mobile harvester so as to minimize the amount of product lost during harvesting. The disclosed systems include an array of catcher plates designed to surround a plant to be harvested, in a manner that minimizes the possibility of harvested product dropping through the plates to the ground and thus being lost. These systems may be useful for harvesting a wide variety of products that grow on plants such as trees or bushes, including without limitation berries, fruit, and coffee beans.
