Abstract

Systems for sowing germinated and ungerminated seeds through plastic mulch are presented.
New developments in mechanical sowing of dry coated, gel coated or uncoated seeds relative to plug-mix, gel and gel-mix planting are evaluated.
Research on singulation of sprouted seeds for fluid sowing and equipment for punching and burning holes in plastic are discussed.
