Au Contraire Mon ami,Depends entirely on the crop pocked actually. Cabbage is 100% had pocked, so are sauce tomatoes and green peppers.
That used to be true, not so much anymore...since about 2004 more commercial growers are going mechanical.Not here, besides that is in Europe anyway. Here, migrant's do the picking, not machines.
I sure wish they would show more detail about how they get the grapes off and separated. It looks like a a lot of juice or water when they dumpe plus the stuff off the top of the roller beds falls into the trailer. I am kind of confused as to exactly what is happening. Kind of like the green pea harvesting videos I have seen.Grape harvesting in Italy:
This harvesting process is straightly done to make wine out of the grapes, hence why you see a lot of juice because it's inevitable that the grapes will get squished.I sure wish they would show more detail about how they get the grapes off and separated.

I'll see if I can find a more in dept video on these machines. There is a lot going on in the middle of the machine, that's for sure.
EDIT: Here is a cool animation video showing how it works:
