A transplanter is an Agriculture machine used for transplanting seedlings to the field. This is very important as it reduces the time taken to transplant seedlings (when compared to manual transplanting), thus allowing more time for harvesting. It also reduces the use of manual energy. Paddy transplanter machines are comes in 2 , 3 , 4 up-to 6 rows for large capacity field .

3. INTRODUCTION
Transplanter :- A transplanter is an Agriculture machine used for transplanting seedlings to the
field. This is very important as it reduces the time taken to transplant seedlings (when compared
to manual transplanting), thus allowing more time for harvesting. It also reduces the use of
manual energy. Paddy transplanter machines are comes in 2 , 3 , 4 up-to 6 rows for large capacity
field .
Seedlings :- A plant or tree grown from a seed.
A tree not yet 0.5-1.5 feet high.
Any young plant, especially one grown in a nursery for transplanting.
4. Manual transplanting of rice
: a labour - intensive
operation
Mechanical transplanting of
rice : a suitable and
profitable alternative to
manual transplanting
5. COMPARISION
Direct seeding Transplanting Mechanical Paddy Transplanting
• Direct Paddy Seeder is for Sowing
Germinated paddy seed directly in wetland
field.
• A transplanter is an Agriculture
machine used for transplanting seedlings to
the field.
• Time require for transplanting is more as
compare to manual transplanting.
• Time require for transplanting is less.
• Weed is the most important problem in
manual transplanting .
• Weed is not ocuur in manual paddy
transplanting.
• Uniform spacing and optimum plant
density is not possible .
• Uniform spacing and optimum plant
density is obtained.
• Number of Plants place in unequal
amount.
• Number of Plants pick and place in
unequal amount. Generally 2-3 plants are
placed.
• Labour cost is high • Labour Cost is low
8. LITERATURE REVIEW
1. [1]According to report by Han et al. (1971) Japan was the first country to develop a
unit called rice transplanter whose patent was obtained as earlier as in 1898 .

10. PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION
1. In the state of chhattisgarh the government has scheme called “1 Rs. kg of rice” due to this the
labour has become more lazy and deny to work.
2. Migrants labourers, who had got work under “MNREGA” at there native places are now
reluctant to come in sowing and harvesting seasons.
3. In this operation the farmer are dependant of labour, as the labour consume more time than
machine . Hence ,the machine is more efficient than labour.
4. The cost analysis :-
In this operation labour cost per acers is about 1500 to 2000 rupees, whlie
In machine operation farmer spends only 300 rupees per acers, which gives
Profit to the farmer.
11. CONCLUSION
• Transplanting of seedlings at the optimal age (14-18 days).
• Uniform spacing and optimum plant density is maintained.
•Higher productivity compared to traditional methods where plant spacing and density may
not always be consistent.
•Lower stress, drudgery and health risks for farm labourers.
• Addresses the problem of labour scarcity.
• Increases farmers' net income.
12. SCOPE FOR THE FUTURE WORK
• Due to unbeaten population pressure , flow of migratory labour towards
transplantation is decreased and agriculture in the area will threatened.
• Due to less availability of labour the automation farming is used so the
machine requirement increases.
• Farmer will not dependent by labour in paddy transplanting.
• Due to more efficiency it will attract the farmer .
• For a large farming field scope is high.
