摘      要：Hand transplanting of vegetable seedlings is always been a time consuming and labourious activity which often leads to muscular *** of hitech instrumentation increased to achieve precision and automation in agricultural *** present the transplanting is done manually which accounts for large amount of hand labour and *** ensure precision and timeliness in operation,an automatic transplanting based on embedded systemfor use in seedling transplanters was *** developed systemconsists of feed roller,pro-tray belt,a pair of L-shaped rotating fingers,embedded system,DC and stepper *** plug seedlings were released into the furrow with use of developed embedded system by actuating DC as well as stepper *** performances of the developed system was tested rigorously at four different operating speeds(1.0,1.5,2.0 and 2.5 km/h)and three angles of pro-tray feed roller(00,300,450)for attaining optimum plant to plant spacing in soil *** result indicated that percent transplanting and plant to plant spacing was found optimum at 2.0 km/h forward speed and 300 angle of pro-tray feed *** average plant spacing,transplanting efficiency,furrow closer,angle of inclination and miss planting were 600 mm,91.7%,90.3%,18.30 and 2.1%,*** developed system ensures the precision by sigulating the placement of seedlings at optimumspacing for sustainable agriculture *** also enabled the optimumtransplanting rate,the ability to transplant at higher speeds and maintaining proper plant to plant spacing.
