After the harvest of corn, the ears had to be separated from the straw and the grains had to be extracted from their husk. First, the corn was trampled by herd circulating the threshing floor. The cleaning then was continued by throwing the grain into the air with the aid of balers (winnowing). The date of this example of wood, which is slightly damaged, is difficult to specify.

Après la récolte du blé, il fallait séparer les épis de la paille et sortir les grains de leur enveloppe. Dans un premier temps, le blé était piétiné par un troupeau circulant sur l'aire (le dépicage). Le nettoyage se poursuivait en jetant en l'air le grain à l'aide d'écopes (le vannage). La date de cet exemplaire en bois, qui est légèrement endommagé, est difficile à préciser.

Nach der Getreideernte mußten die Ähren von der Spreu getrennt und die Körner aus ihren Hülsen entfernt werden. In einem ersten Arbeitsgang wurde das Getreide von einer Herde ausgestampft, die auf einem Platz kreiste (das Dreschen). Die Reinigung bestand darin, daß man die Körner mittels der Schaufeln in die Luft warf (das Worfeln). Das Alter dieses leicht beschädigten Exemplares aus Holz ist schwierig zu bestimmen.

Dopo la raccolta del grano, bisognava separare le spighe della paglia e scartare i grani dal loro involucro. All'inizio, il grano veniva pestato da una torma circolante sull'area (la trebbiatura). La pulitura avveniva gettando in aria il grano tramite delle sassole (la spulatura). La datazione di questo esemplare di legno, che é leggermente danneggiato, é difficile da precisare.

Após a ceifa do trigo era preciso separar as espigas da palha e fazer sair os gräos do seu revestimento. Numa primeira fase as espigas eram pisadas pelo gado que circulava na eira. Seguidamente era preciso separar o trigo do joio, o que se fazia lançando ao ar os gräos com o uso de uma peneira para joeirar. A data deste exemplar de madeira, que está ligeiramente danificado, é difícil de precisar.

Tras la coecha del trigo, había que separar las espigas de la paja y sacar a los granos de su envoltorio. Primero el trigo era pisoteado por un animal que daba vueltas en la era (la trilla). La limpieza continuaba arrojando al aire el grano con ayuda de horcas (el aventamiento). La fecha de este ejemplar de madera, ligeramente dañado, es difícil de precisar.
