| Abstract | ||||
| The aim of this research is to determine the suitable method for transplanting Damsis. The experiments were performed the objective of EL-Gemmiza Research Station, EL-Gharbiea Governorate, in 2008 season. Damsis was transplanted by New-Holand and Lännen Roulette transplanters at different forward speeds (0.9, 1.3, 1.8 and 2.3 km/h) additional manual transplanting. From the obtained results can be concluded that Damsis transplanting by Lännen Roulette transplanter at forward speed of 1.8 km/h is the suitable method for transplanting Damsis to obtain the optimum seedling uniformity space per unit area (25.6 ´ 30.5 cm), missed 5.0 % and floated 4.7 % seedling, field capacity and efficiency were 0.46 fed/h and 85.6 % respectively, yields 17.9 and 0.27 ton/fed. of green plant and seed respectively, energy consumed 2315 MJ/fed. and cost about 8.4 LE/ton. | ||||
