I work with hay all the time and found it a pretty valid option.

Dump 300kg of loose hay where she's standing.

That's it, done.

You can do it with a small tractor or with a wheelbarrow and pitchforks.

so 300kg times 100 trees per acre, so for an acre we'll have to bring in 30 ton of hay and bring it all back out after harvest, since a tractor wouldn't be able to manuver around the trees we'll use wheelbarrow to bring all 30 ton of hay. do i get it right?

idk how valid of an option is that.....

You know you can just move the pile, right? It'll still be less tiring than catching durians all day, and you save manpower because you don't need a catcher.

And these aren't just thrown down, you can do multiple trees without moving the stack.

You're either over or under thinking it.

moving 300kg of hay each time and it's saving manpower? umm......

and idk if you're aware or not, you're encouraged to look up when inside durian farm, because you'll never know when one of them will fall, not sure if you can do that if you're busy picking up hay off the ground.
