“This is the most important harvest I have received from this project”

Question

I was wondering if it is fine to write

From this project, I have learned [blah blah], and this is the most important harvest I have received from this project.

What is a better metaphor or better way to express the meaning?

Answer 1

The most important benefit I have received from this project is having learnt that

would avoid needless repetition and still convey the intended meaning.

Answer 2

I would say this is the most important thing I have gleaned from this project.

Glean has one definition of "To gather (something) slowly and carefully in small pieces." It also has a relationship to harvesting, with its other definition: "To gather (grain) left behind by reapers."

Answer 3

How about finding?

This is the most important [or significant] finding from this project.

NOAD lists, under finding:

a conclusion reached as a result of an inquiry, investigation, or trial: experimental findings.

Answer 4

This is the greatest reward I've reaped from this project.
