Minecart with Hopper collects and transfers items while moving, faster than a stationary hopper.

Description
Minecart with Hopper combines a cart and hopper into a mobile collection unit. It pulls items from containers above the track, picks up loose drops through many blocks, and can unload into hoppers below. Because the transfer rate is faster than a normal hopper, moving collectors are common under large farms where drops appear across a wide floor.
The vehicle is a core part of melon, pumpkin, bamboo, cactus, sugar cane, and mob loot systems. Rails let it sweep a fixed path, while powered segments and unload stations control when it returns. Redstone can disable or release it depending on layout. Compared with a grid of static hoppers, one moving collector can reduce material cost and lag.
