Picking
Only fully ripened cherries are picked, manually.
Over-ripe and unripe cherries are left on the shrub.
This is therefore the best way to harvest coffee,
but it is also the most expensive.
Stripping
For harvesting, a simple device is used that shakes
the cherries from the branches onto the ground.
The drawback is that ripe, unripe and over-ripe
cherries are all harvested.
Machine harvesting
Tracked vehicles are driven past the rows. These
vehicles shake the bushes and collect the cherries.
