Before thatching can take place, thatching material needs to be prepared. Various types of Straws and Reed have been harvested for thatching since prehistoric times.A Sickle is a handheld tool and cuts small amount of crops at a time.
The scythe allowed harvesting to be carried out faster, covering a larger area with every cut.
In the early 18thcentury the Reaping machine revolutionised the
cereal harvesting industry..
In recent times harvesters are used to harvest the thatch.They are a lot more quicker and efficient.
