Seeding Unit
Main Page
There is a hopper filled with seeds and mounted on the cylindrical wooden roller assembly. Sides are packed to avoid spillage.
Holes are drilled on the surface of the wooden Roller along the width wise at one point (5 holes drilled equally spaced at 100mm gap).
Seeds will fall over the wooden Roller. Seed will be collected at the drilled holes, when the hole was at upward direction. When the roller tends to rotate the
seed will fall down when the hole is towards downward direction. (Collection and transfer of the seeds takes place by the rotary movement of the wooden roller.)
There will be 5 flexible Hoses connected at the falling Point. Seeds will be received by the hoses and transferred to the ground. (Seeding takes Place.)
Plough set up Installed in the device.
Front Plough to dig the soil and back plough to cover with soil after seeding takes place.
Plough depth designed with 150 mm approximately. (This prevents harms to the micro organisms in the soil. If we dig more depth it will affect earthworms & microorganism in the soil).
