Abstract
A 2-row vegetable transplanter with revolving magazine type metering mechanism was developed and field evaluated for Brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) crop. The seedlings of brinjal crop were grown in 98 cell (single cell volume of 22 cm3) plug trays in soil less media. Plant missing varied from 2.22 to 4.44 per cent. Upright plants (plants having 00 to 300 planting angle), depth of planting, plant mortality after 20 days were in the range of 8590 %, 5 to 6 cm and 3.33 to 4 %, respectively. The average field capacity of the machine was 0.122 ha.h-1 for brinjal crop.
