[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

The rush seedlings are discharged after cutting the upper part of the stem and the lower part of the root using a conventional cutting machine. Since the desired plant seedlings had to be repacked into the seedling cassette, manpower and effort were required. It takes more time to fill the seedling cassettes than to feed the cutting equipment. As a result, work was sometimes delayed. In addition, rush transplanted seedlings are transported after cutting. Because they were allowed to fall downward from the belt, the stems got dirty with mud at the base of the plant, causing growth problems. There was.
