The present invention relates to a feeder device and a grain sorter having the same, and to a feeder device for moving grain grains to sort into good and bad products and a grain sorter having the same.

Crops are small-scale production and require a machine capable of post-harvest processing according to the size and timing of farming. After harvesting, grains contain stones, so they must be removed cleanly before shipping. For grain-shaped grains, grains and foreign matters have similar weights or shapes, so it may be difficult to select them completely using specific gravity, shape, etc. At this time, a device capable of automatically sorting and removing various foreign substances such as stones included in grains is called a grain sorter.
