Historically the '''Crop Harvester''' and '''Crop-Matron''' were paired together for IC2 crop automation. They each use 1 LV amp to run continuously, and together they need 2 amps to keep all crops growing fast and harvested constantly, but were less expensive to craft than the Multifarm for small applications and at a lower tier. They have been superseded by the '''Crop Manager''', which does both tasks in one block. The Crop Manager can handle three levels of farms if placed as shown to the right (just above the dirt of the middle level). Horizontal range varies with the tier of the Crop Harvester, and a few blocks are likely to be sacrificed for hydration and power delivery infrastructure. It is possible to replace dirt with fertilized dirt removing the need for water.{{clear}}
