Design of portable peanut planter

Abstract

At present, manual sowing is still the main sowing method in Hilly and terraced fields. This operation mode has the problems of low efficiency and high labor intensity. Although the traditional mechanical traction large-scale peanut planter has complete functions and high efficiency, it is not suitable for the sowing of complex terrain and small area land such as hills and terraces. In order to solve the above problems, a portable peanut seeder is designed in this paper. It is composed of hoe shovel opener, seed metering device, seed box, scraper type soil covering device and other parts. The operation efficiency can reach 4-5acres/h, and the missing sowing rate is less than 6%. The sowing effect is good, which can meet the technical requirements of peanut planting in Hilly and terrace areas.
