This is a known issue being investigated by the DEVs. TH posted about it in the Live forum.

Happened on my Flora Farms, too.
And my Heavy Mineral Miners.
So this begs the question - what did they try to mess with (emphasis on try) regarding resource harvesting? Contrary to popular belief, computer code does NOT just change itself spontaneously. Somebody tinkered and broke something.
See, as I've tried to explain time and time again, a coding change requires TESTING. Not relying on paying customers who are combat-frenzied and check nothing else but how their new 1337 rifle outdamages an opposite faction member.
I honestly believe they just make coding changes in this game, and just never test them or read about anyone's problems with them, and they implement them.
This has GOT to the be most buggy patch I've ever seen in my time with this game. This patch is an untested nightmare.
I thought the Test Center server was for testing, not the Live servers....

I had a different issue, but it may be related. I had 4 flora harvesters down, all paid up and powered the same. I went to move them today, and one, only one, had decayed and needed repair to re-deed. I had not received a 'damaged structure' on it, either. Glad I had the whim tofarm something different today. I knowthe damaged onehad 10 days worth 4 days ago, like the others, I always double check when I leave them.
Yikes!

Yep I've had this bug too; noticed last night.
One group of 5 heavies on Chilastra/Naboo were mining three items each. One was the actual aluminum I wanted, but the other two were random different things on each harv. And they were all gettng mined before my eyes.
I cleared it up by doing a Change Resource and re-selecting the aluminum. But we'll see on my next visit if the kept doing it anyways.
