The Cotton Picker, on the right, dumps the load of cotton into a container for holding, while the picker returns to the field to pick more. The cotton will be moved from this container into the yellow baler on the far left. There the cotton will be compressed into large bales for transporting to the gin for further processing.
@casablanca I am so glad you are enjoying this series! I grew up seeing cotton growing and took it for granted! Now that the number of fields are declining, I wanted to share what I am so accustomed to seeing!
