Oxbo -Â Model 8040 -Blueberry Harvester
The reliable 8040 was designed to harvest blueberries in a broad range of field conditions. An entry level price point and low total cost of ownership make the 8040 the choice for many fresh-market blueberry growers. Its legendary three-wheel design allows for tight turning in short headlands while the narrow width fits in older 9-foot row spacings. Meets engine emission tier requirements and global compliance standards in most major blueberry growing regions.
