Tea picking machine, Malaysia. Speically designed two man gas driven machines can be used to mechanize picking on some slopes.

---

This is a two man machine that allows semi-mechanized picking on terraced slopes. Only the bud and the top pair of leaves on the plant is plucked, which makes machine harvesting difficult, particularly on the slopes that are best for tea growing. Steeper terraces require picking completely by hand.
