Abstract:
In order to understand effect of full automatic vegetable transplanter in production,transplanting tests of lettuce on ridge and film and cucumber on ridge were carried out,applicability of full automatic transplanter to these two vegetables transplanting were assessed.Experimental results showed that both transplanting of cucumber on ridge and lettuce on film and ridge had good adaptability,transplanting pass rate was as high as 92%,and performance indicators basically met standard requirements,no obvious injury was found.In terms of operational performance,full automatic vegetable transplanter could be used for promotion in outskirts of Beijing.Full automatic vegetable transplanter was more suitable for transplanting on ridge with no film,and had higher planting rate.Compared with manual work,operating efficiency of transplanting machine was 6 times higher than manual operation for transplanting lettuce,and was 18 times higher than manual operation for transplanting cucumber.
