Again copied and got the harvest in (6)

I believe the answer is:

reaped

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'got the harvest in' is the definition.
'reaped' can be an answer for 'got' (I've seen this in another clue). I'm not certain of the 'the harvest in' bit.

'again copied' is the wordplay.
'again' becomes 're' (prefix meaning 'again').
'copied' becomes 'aped' ('ape' can be a synonym of 'copy').
're'+'aped'='REAPED'

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reaped that I've seen before include "Gathered, harvested" , "Gleaned like harvest" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
