ABSTRACT:
Cotton harvesting apparatus for harvesting cotton from cotton plants planted in spaced apart generally parallel rows and having a cotton picking apparatus with ground engaging means for movement of the cotton picker over the ground. The cotton picking apparatus includes one or more picker mechanisms which are adapted to pick cotton from the cotton plants as the cotton picking apparatus is moved over the cotton plants. Boom mechanisms are carried by the cotton picker and are used for striking the cotton plants for removing leaves, leaf stems and other trash off of the cotton plants prior to the cotton plants being engaged by a picker mechanism. One of the boom mechanisms extends in front of the cotton picking apparatus whereas another boom mechanism extends to one side of the cotton apparatus and over the rows of cotton which are to be picked. The height of the boom mechanisms can be adjusted so that the cotton plants are struck by the boom mechanisms at predetermined heights.
