The Pinwheel Harvester in Action – Precision Macadamia Harvesting
Harvest season is a precision-driven operation, and our machinery plays a crucial role in maximising efficiency. Here, you can see the pinwheel harvester in action—an essential piece of equipment designed to clear debris, dislodge nuts, and prepare the orchard floor for collection.

Equipped with powerful air jets and rotating pinwheels, this harvester effectively removes leaf litter and ensures macadamia nuts are exposed for easy pickup, reducing contamination and improving overall nut quality. By keeping orchard floors clear and accessible, this system streamlines the harvesting process and maintains tree health by minimising organic buildup.

At MFM, we integrate cutting-edge technology with sustainable orchard management practices to enhance productivity across all our farms. Machinery like this pinwheel harvester is just one example of how we ensure every harvest is efficient, clean, and high-yielding.

✂️ Precision Pruning in Action! 🌿🚜

The Afron Pruner is back in the orchard, carefully shaping the canopy to maintain tree health, airflow, and optimal sunlight exposure. 🌞 By keeping the orchard structure balanced, we're ensuring better nut set, easier harvest, and long-term tree productivity.

🍃 Why is pruning important?
✔ Reduces overcrowding for better light penetration
✔ Supports disease management by improving airflow
✔ Encourages strong, even growth for future harvests

⚠ Safety first! This machine works fast—keep your distance when in operation. I used a zoom lens for this shot! 📸 #macadamiaorchard #afronpruner #SustainableFarming ... See MoreSee Less
