How do you pick pecans?

Hickory trees grow on steep slopes, while adult hickory trees are taller. All these factors bring many difficulties to pecans. Almost every year people die in the process of picking. Therefore, it is best to "open the net to pick".

Lay a net on the ground, and the pecans will fall into the basket due to gravity, thus eliminating the need for tree picking. It takes about a month from ripening to the complete natural landing of all pecans, which is not a long time, and reduces the damage to pecans.
