Are you sure we can use a word like defoliator here?
And we have a winner! First used in Antwerp Flower Auction to remove both thorns and foliage from the bottom third of an entire bunch of Flowers at one time. Adapted from commercial Fowl pluckers in US processing plants.

Thanks Carlos
Enough of the potato themed tools.
I'm sure it's driving you all nuts.

I've never lived where I could use this tool, but possibly an easy one for you to identify.
Please say what it is if you know.

This isn't to pick up potatoes but it is for nuts Like pecans, roll it on the ground and picks them up slick.

As the man once said works good last longtime..

Yep, you got it. Grant Wins! It is a Pecan picker.
Just because I've never seen one... I thought this may be too easy.

Grant can maybe find something a little less nutty.
