Summary of the Developing Status of Greenhouse Tray Seeder and Seed Metering Device

Abstract:

The precision plug tray seeder is mainly used to implement precision seeding, and it is the key equipment to accomplish the goal of mechanized and automated seedling in the greenhouse. The plug seedlings planter can greatly improve the productivity of labor and reduce labor intensity at the same time. The seed metering device is the core component of precision plug tray planter. Its performance directly influences the production, the sowing quality and the cost. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the study of the plug seedlings planter for domestic and abroad, and particularly Introduce three typical seeder (plate-typeneedle-likeroller-type). Keywords:Seeder;Seed Metering Device;Plug Seedlings;Greenhouse.
