Um, Actually...

Not everyone floods their bog. In some regions, flooding is fairly uncommon with maybe 20% or less of farmers choosing to flood.

There are picker machines that harvest the berries straight from the ground. I knew someone whose machine ran on rails they'd installed throughout their bog but I'm not sure how common their exact setup was.
