Don't worry about sowing and harvesting mechanized garlic planting

Recently, at the agricultural machinery exhibition held in Lanling County, Shandong Province, there were many agricultural machinery about garlic, but what attracted the most attention of reporters was the garlic planter displayed by Linyi Huaxiangxin Agricultural Machinery Technology Co., Ltd.

Because growing garlic is a troublesome matter, not simply planting it in the field, but also ensuring that the garlic sprouts are up, and it is extremely dependent on manpower, and the busy farming season is very worrying. So garlic sowing can also be mechanized? Xu Zhen, general manager of the company, pointed to a machine nearly half the height of the machine and told the reporter: "this makes use of the principle of gravity in physics. After 13 steps such as transportation, adjustment, and placement, the garlic can finally be adjusted to the garlic sprouts facing up. Planting in the ground is the same as planting it artificially. Don't underestimate this guy, he can sow 3 mu an hour, or about 30 mu a day. But a person can only work three points of land a day, and the benefit is 100 times that of manual labor! " Xu Zhen said that this machine has been patented and is now successfully tested and is ready to go on the market in the autumn. Each machine is priced at 42000 yuan, but it has already ordered nearly 50 units.

Compared with garlic sowing, there are more kinds of agricultural machinery harvested by garlic machine. The harvest of garlic is also a hassle, digging, removing soil, cutting stems, finishing, etc., also require a lot of labor costs. Machine harvesting is more convenient, but it is also afraid of injuring garlic in the process of machine harvesting. Generally speaking, you can't see it on the first day, but the wound is obvious on the second day. Han Wen, head of Shandong Asustek Jinrun Machinery Co., Ltd., told reporters: "the garlic harvester can harvest one mu of land in an hour, but if there are three or four people, it will only be one mu of land a day. Harvesting garlic alone can save a lot of money every year!"
