The modified Porter P6-121 machinery demonstrates superior maneuverability in peatlands without many wooden stumps, making it economically viable for operations in such areas compared to bicycles. It is efficiently utilized year-round for various tasks including chemical spraying, fertilizer and lime application, and stump extraction. Ongoing enhancements, such as the fruit bearer rod, suggest its potential for improving pineapple cultivation at the estate level.
