Optimization of Bulk Density and Moisture Content in Different Stages of Plantation for the Single Row Manually Operated Vegetable Transplanter for Brinjal and Chilli.
Abstract: The machine used in the experiment was designed for suitability to the pot-type seedlings. In pot-type seedlings, soil in the form of soil block, keeps the roots of the seedling enact and therefore ensures minimum mortality and maximum survival of the seedlings. The compactness and seedling settlement time, before its removal from cage for planting, guides the soil block strength against breakage. The minimum damage of soil block in pot …
