Obsolete? The person who drives the harvester, is still called a harvester, no? --Connel MacKenzie T C 08:36, 28 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

It's not my area of expertise, but a quick google suggests driver, operator or crew are the terms more likely to be used nowadays. -- Nick1nildram 09:19, 28 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
It had been toned down to "archaic", but I made it "dated". You seem to be under the wrong impression that all harvests are done automatically today. That is not the case. Asparagus, for example, is still harvested manually or at the very most semi-automatically, still requiring a lot of harvesters on the field. 90.186.72.23 11:02, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
