An assembly structure of a tubular body and a handle includes a tube, two connecting members, a handle, a position-limiting member and a blocking member. The tubular body has at least one pair of insertion holes. Each connecting member has a concave surface with a positioning post. The connecting members are mounted on the outer periphery of the tubular body with the positioning posts inserted into the insertion holes respectively. The handle is connected to a coupling base. The coupling base has a mounting hole and is mounted around the connecting members. The position-limiting member and the blocking member are provided at two opposite ends of the connecting members respectively and abut against two opposite ends of the coupling base respectively. The assembly structure allows the handle to be easily and securely mounted and positioned on the tubular body.

This invention relates to a precision agriculture produce harvesting system and produce harvesting apparatus configured for integration with the system, an essential feature of which is a harvesting device subsystem (100) that includes a harvesting device, for instance pruning shears (102) and a harvesting separation stroke detector (108) housed within a control module housing (110) mounted to the shears (102). A person operating the pruning shears (102) produces discernible separation strokes when the handles (104) of the shears (102) are squeezed together to produce a shearing action. The stroke detector (108) detects the separation strokes of the shears (102). By the addition of the control module (108) to the pruning shears (102), the shears are essentially converted into a data logging device by means of which important aspects of a produce harvesting process can be digitised and supplied to a harvest data digital data processing system.

The stalk cutter device and method of use thereof obtains a desired length of plant stalk, particularly a cornstalk, from a desired distance from the ground. The stalk cutter device includes a pair of handles pivotally connected to a pair of pruning type of cutters. A support rod is mounted through the pivot connections of the cutters and extends laterally a desired distance from the lower cutter to support the device at the desired height to cut the desired portion of the stalk.
