Abstract:

The developed manual multicrop planter helps to small and marginal farmer’s. It is manufactured by local available material to decrease cost of planter. The recommended row to row spacing, seed rate, seed to seed spacing and depth of seed placement vary from crop to crop and for different agro-climatic conditions to achieve optimum yields. The designed manual multi-crop planter had handle, wheels, adjustable furrow opener and furrow closer, seed hopper, seed metering house. The planter has adjustable furrow opener and soil covering device. The planter can be used for different crops by changing the seed metering wheel. The planter is a pulling type, The total cost of planter is Rs.5270. The manual multi-crop planter was simple in design and easily operated by a single worker (men/women).
