Mussel Reaper

Description of Invention

Mussels grow on rocks, bamboo and other solid surfaces underwater by attaching themselves on those solid surfaces. It is also their way to feed on the tiny planktons in the water. A thick filament attaches these mussels on bamboos; hence, making it hard to pull out the mussels for harvest. There are many ways to harvest mussels on the bamboos stuck underwater. But the process is painstakingly crucial and tough for the harvesters. So, the researcher aims to invent a tool the will help lessen the pain and time taken from the harvesting process.
