| Abstract | ||||
| This research aims to study the ability of garlic plant to be suitable for mechanical transplanting process under Egyptian conditions, for decreasing the plant stay period in the soil and decreasing the number of labors who used in traditional method. The performance of the used transplanter was carried out as function of change in transplanter forward speed, distance between seedlings and age of seedlings. The results illustrate that the garlic plant can be suitable to mechanical transplanting process, the seedling must be prepared in the basic soil, with seedling age of two months this tend to decrease the longitudinal scattering , transverse scattering and damaged seedling add to that the seedling depth was increased. | ||||
