Adjustable vehicle with platforms for agricultural workers

An electrically powered vehicle 10 to assist the manual tending of row crops has a plurality of ground engaging members 14 with which the vehicle 10 can be moved, each of which is mounted to a carrier 22 which is pivotably connected to the chassis 12, each carrier 22 being extensively rotatable about a steering axis. The vehicle chassis 12 carries a plurality of repositionable worker support platforms 70 by which a worker can be carried above the crop. A conveyor system 108, (106 see fig 2a), container dispensing system and foldable storage platform 152 are provided. The vehicle architecture and handling systems are configured to be compatible with orthogonal layouts of row crops, so that the vehicle can function bi-directionally both in its operative mode when harvesting or planting crops, and in its crabbing mode when negotiating headlands linking rows. A control unit is swingably mounted to the chassis 12, from which the alternative modes for steering, driving and conveying are automatically set up.
