The term CROP LOPPER is composed of two words, REAPER and SICKLE. A REAPER is a farm implement used to cut and collect grain crops such as wheat, barley, oats, rye, and flax. It is usually pulled by a tractor or horse and consists of a large blade attached to a frame. A SICKLE is a hand-held agricultural tool used for harvesting grain crops. It has a curved blade that is used to cut the stems of the crop. Both tools are used to harvest grain crops and are essential tools in modern farming.
