Abstract
A wheeled agricultural cart for transporting plant materials having at least one removable shelf. The shelf includes a planar shelf element for supporting the plant materials attached to a shelf frame by an adhesive material having a resiliently deformable thickness. The material maintains a vertically spaced part relationship between the shelf element and the frame, preventing them from rattling against one another.
