Abstract

The main objective of our work is to increase the speed of seeding process with higher rate of
accuracy. This process is mostly applied in the plant nurseries where large numbers of plant saplings are to be grown. At
present the seeding process in plant nurseries is done manually by hand which is a time consuming process and the
accuracy and speed of planting the seed depends on the skill of the worker, so to bring a solution to this problem we are
developing an automatic seeder which uses vacuum pressure to plant the seed in less time, with more accuracy and with
no wastage of seeds.
