Cotton harvesting equipment has been developed over the years, and today, machines are very efficient and typically able to harvest between six and eight rows with each pass. Some newer models of cotton pickers/strippers for sale combine the cotton picking and stripping capabilities with module technology to reduce time and labor needs. Cotton pickers utilize prongs or spindles to pick the cotton, and cotton strippers strip the cotton from the stalk and are preferred for shorter crops. Both cotton pickers and strippers are able to additionally process the crop to separate the cotton from the bolls. Cotton pickers and strippers will blow the cotton into a wagon or basket, which will be emptied into one of the aforementioned cotton module builders which have typically been integrated into the more modern harvesting equipment.
Technological advancements in cotton harvesting machinery enable cotton farmers to track the harvested cotton using continuously updated data. This data may give the farmer information on anything from picking performance and basket monitoring to moisture levels which can greatly enhance quality, efficiency, and ultimately profitability. Other recent technologies allow cotton pickers and strippers to analyze cotton crop heights and monitor the acreage harvested and even to wrap, pack, and tag bales to prepare them for the cotton gin. At Equipment Anywhere, buyers are able to locate both new and used cotton pickers/strippers for sale from some of the largest manufacturers such as John Deere and Case IH.
