Abstract
The inclined-plate cell type seed-metering device has a point of excellence that seed is dropped easy and certainly.
The experiments for drill seeding of segmented beet seed by this device was conducted and was found as follows.
1) It should be given the sufficent revolution to easy drop the seed, and it is 24-30r.p.m.
2) When the revolution of plate was too low, seeding results are not satisfactory by the reason of influence of seed cell interval.
3) The depth of seed cell should be given as deep as the seed diameter. For this reason we can not revolute the plate too high speed, as the higher the revolution, the shallower the cell depth should be.
4) This device must be reconstructed that seeding quantity may be adjusted more fine.
