With the Brussels Sprout harvest well underway, Billy Logan's team from East Lothian Produce are seen here at Knowes Farm, East Linton, where 350 tonne of sprouts will be harvested from this field alone.
Harvest started for the team at the end of August and will go on through until April – however in the run up to Christmas the team have been harvesting 24 hours a day, which will see them produce 150 packable tonnes of sprouts each day, with 4500 tonnes a year being produced for British supermarkets and export.
Seen here are four sprout harvesters and a team harvesting and packing stalks of sprouts in the field. Over the course of December the team will harvest cut and pack 280,000 stalks Ref:EC1812184390
