澳门六合彩资料库 Davis plant breeder Jack Hanna and engineer Coby Lorenzen teamed up in the 1950s to invent a machine that could and develop a tomato that would be tough enough to survive a harvester. Numerous attempts failed, but in 1959 they invented the first machine that sorted and loaded processing tomatoes. The new tomato became known as the 鈥渟quare tomato鈥 because its blocky shape prevented it from rolling off the harvester. Nearly all of the tomatoes grown in the U.S. for tomato sauce, paste, ketchup, juice, and other processed foods are harvested by Hanna and Lorenzen鈥檚 machine.
