Abstract

See full text

Implements for the removal of insects from plants are provided which dedicate an individual axial flow centrifugal fan unit to each crop row unit. The fan unit also destroys the insects so removed. The frame of the implement can be articulated and driven in such a manner so as to permit fan unit position adjustment while the fans are driven and running. In some embodiments, each fan unit is constructed with means which directs at least a portion of the exhaust of the fan to the plant row in order to further facilitate insect dislodgement and removal into the intake of the fan.
