Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a method for processing agricultural seeds that are difficult to sow uniformly due to their small size, light weight, shape, etc., making it easier for farmers to sow seeds, and uniformly raising seedlings. The aim is to contribute to increasing the efficiency of promotion and management work.

Conventionally, this type of agricultural product seeds have not been mechanized sowing has been carried out by hand or similar operations, resulting in the inconvenience of differences in the growth of seedlings.

In other words, this has resulted in competition for growth in densely populated areas, and in addition, extra burdens have been associated with subsequent transplantation and other management work.

A good example of this would be ``tobacco''.

The seeds are flat, less than 1 mm in diameter, and of course, sowing was done by hand, and in some cases there was a dew sowing method in which water was stirred, but the results were the same as described above, and after all manual labor was exhausted. The underworld was everywhere.

In this regard, the present invention prints a set pattern of dots (.) on water-soluble paper using an adhesive, and uses the adhesive action to separate and fix the seeds and supply them to farmers. be.

The following explanation will be based on the drawings. The base 1, which is made of water-soluble paper or film, is supplied from a roll 2 according to the processing speed, and is produced by a generally known adhesive tape manufacturing process 3 as shown in Fig. 2. A set of dots (.), that is, adhesive dots 1a, are printed continuously.

Next, this base 1 reaches a guide roller 5 installed in a seed tank 4, and a fan 6 continuously splashes the seeds.

Of course, the corresponding adhesive points 1a are located on the glue surface (nori zura) to which one or two seeds can be attached.

Further, the degree of adhesion is strengthened by the appropriate pressing action of the guide roller 5 and the soft roller 7 placed adjacent thereto.

Of course, any excess seed adhesion due to static electricity or other cilia will be brushed off by the rotation of the brush 8, and after passing through this, the final stage will be applied to sheets or rolls according to the sowing form, and the seeds will be distributed to meet the demand. It is.

According to the usage method of the present invention, the desired uniform sowing is achieved by simply spreading the seedlings on a seedling nursery box or other prepared soil surface and watering them.

In other words, the base 1 on which the seeds are attached dissolves in water and is immediately absorbed by the soil.Therefore, the seeds maintain the position they were attached to base 1 and proceed to implantation and germination, thus satisfying uniform seedling-raising conditions. In addition, in the subsequent management work, especially at the time of initial transplantation, there is almost no entanglement or other competition between fine roots, which makes the work extremely easy, greatly reducing labor at the initial stage of cultivation. The basic conditions for promoting uniform seedling raising can be provided at low cost.

Supplementary note: The base material used in the present invention is paper or other films, but all of these must be water-soluble, and at the same time, they must be harmless to seeds and seedlings as well as the adhesive.

In addition, the seeds themselves must be completely free of mold, dust, etc., and must have a good germination rate.
