PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a branch collecting apparatus capable of efficiently and easily performing work of collecting and transporting pruned branches scattered on the ground.SOLUTION: A branch collecting apparatus includes a branch fork part F of comb shape for scooping branches, formed by juxtaposing, at suitable spaces, a plurality of long-sized forks F1 projected forward, and disposing, between the long-sized forks F1, short-sized forks F2 thinner and shorter than the long-sized forks F1. A branch receiving part 1 with the same width as the lateral width of the branch fork part F is erected above the rear end of the branch fork part F, and a branch receiving surface 2 is formed of a net-like or transparent member. A branch collecting part 3 comprising the branch fork part F and the branch receiving part 1 is mountable to the front side of a travelable working machine.
