Abstract

Though many equipment's are available in the market, there is still a need for cost effective solution for rice transplanting and planting and planting of the saplings. This project is aimed at a low cost solution for farmers for rice transplanting without compromising on efficiency. The cost has been brought down by the use of a simple crank mechanism can be either manually operated or by a petrol engine when needed the equipment can be used for planting other saplings also.
