Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to an attachment for a crop harvesting apparatus, such as a cotton picker, to improve the yield thereof. A fluid source provides a pressurized fluid. A pipe, oriented substantially parallel to the ground, is coupled at a proximal end thereof in fluid communication with the fluid source. The pipe is provided with a plurality of holes therein, the holes being oriented such that the pressurized fluid passes through the holes in an upward direction to suspend the crop prior to and during harvesting, or to cause movement or turbulence of the bolls of cotton to increase the probability of the bolls being harvested by the harvesting apparatus.
