How Paddy Transplanter helps to a Farmer?
Paddy farming is labor intensive and heavy-duty task. Agriculture implements manufacturing companies have introduced paddy transplanter so that farmers can save their time, effort, labor and cost.
Paddy transplanter is used to transplant rice seedlings onto the paddy field. There are two types i.e. manual operated and power operated. Power operated is more efficient than manual operated machine because it mainly saves time as well as labor costs.
A common paddy transplanter includes:
- A seedling mat i.e. seedbed set on a shed roof type seedling tray.
- A seedling tray shifter that shifts the seedling tray at constant speed
- Multiple pickup forks that pick-up seedlings from seedling mat and plant into the earth with the uniform row spacing and proper depth.
Benefits of Mechanical Transplanting Using Paddy Transplanter
- Reduces labor cost and saves the time
- Effective & better transplanting ensures uniform maturity and healthy crop.
- Helps to maintain uniform spacing between the plants so that it leads to smooth wind flow, provides equal sunlight for each plant and ensures less chances of diseases. Therefore, it improves micro-climate for each plant.
- Easy and effective weed control because of equal spacing which reduces the chances of plant damage during weeding or intercultural operations.
- Less water requirement for field preparation than the manual transplanting.
- Improves plant productivity
