As one of the
39 Melachot, this
includes all harvesting operations such
as
binding grain into sheaves or bales.
Gathering fallen fruit into piles, or
placing them into baskets also falls under
this prohibitive heading. This is even true
in a
private enclosed yard where
carrying
is permitted.

Most of this information is taken
from the book "SABBATH Day of Eternity"
by Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan, published by NCSY.
In the book itself, there are notes that refer the
reader to detailed footnotes.
I am lucky to have found such a clear, concise manual
with these brief overviews of laws so vast and complex
there are Rabbis that specialize in them.
