Italian term

trinciasarmenti

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Agriculture
Il termine rientra in una lista di macchinari agricoli.
Ne ho trovato una descrizione in wiki:
http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinciasarmenti, ma non ho idea di quale sia l'equivalente inglese.

Cane shredder/chopper Cane or vine shredder/chopper is fine as a translation. If you are unhappy with cane, use "vine shredder/chopper".

It really doesn't matter.
Giles Watson Nov 5, 2011:
For DrSeuss (or whatever your name is) If you are googling "cane shredder", then you are likely to come up with results that involve sugar cane. Try googling "cane shredder" with "vine" as a separate word to exclude the sugar cane occurrences.

L'ultimo link di Oliver la chiama "bush shredder" e la ricerca conferma:

cane chopper/shredder

"Sarmento" is a cane, in other words a mature grapevine shoot after the bark becomes tan-coloured. Canes are thinned (pruned) in winter and used to make mulch or, increasingly nowadays, pellets for sale or on-site energy production. "Vine chopper/shredder" is OK, although it is actually a hypernym.

"Stalk" can refer to the bunchstem ("peduncolo") of the cluster or the pedicel ("pedicello") of an individual berry but these generally end up as pomace, the fruit waste left behind after the grapes are crushed.

Thank you!
I seem to find cane shredders only used for sugarcane fields; when it comes to fruit farming vine shredder is more prevalent. What are your thoughts on this? Thanks!

I don't know. As the term is used in different websites I thought it could be the right one.

neutral Andrew Bramhall : Trinciare is to chop, yes, but the mechanical arms which cut and chop grain, hedges etc, are called flailers in the U.K.//'"Choppers" are types of axes, usually used manually .And its flaiLers, nor flaiRers!
