The article presents the developed automated unit for magnetic pulse processing of strawberries. To maintain the required magnetic induction value in the impact zone, the unit design provides for the possibility of changing the position of the working bodies in the vertical and horizontal planes in an automated mode. The unit includes a device for magnetic pulse treatment of plants, magnetic inductors, a control unit for the system of adaptation of working bodies and a program for controlling operating modes. As a result of field studies, it was found that in order to obtain the required value of magnetic induction in the processing zone at a pulse repetition frequency from 1 to 64 Hz and a magnetic induction of 0.3-15 MT, it is necessary to ensure a distance between the working organs and plants from 10 to 250 mm. The required design parameters of the unit that allow for magnetic pulse processing on strawberry plantings with a row spacing of 0.3-1.5 m are determined: the width of the gripper, adjustable 1.6-3.6 m, the tilt adjustment of the working bodies in the vertical direction from 0 to 90.
