{"Page URL":["https://www.appropedia.org/Direct_seeding"],"Page description":["The other method for getting a desired crop to grow is planting the seed directly in the soil. Once a piece of land has been properly prepared for planting (see field preparation) the seed may be planted at the proper depth and spacing. At the Arcata Educational Farm we use a device known as the seed drill. The seed drill operates using different sized plates corresponding to seed size. When the drill is pushed along a bed, the plates spin and seeds are dropped into the soil at the appropriate spacing and depth."],"Page image":["File:Depth seed drill.jpg"],"Page language":["en"],"Page license":["CC-BY-SA-3.0"],"Page title":["Direct seeding"],"Page views":[1247],"Page year":["Saturday, 01-Jan-11 00:00:00 UTC"],"Modification date":["Thursday, 27-Nov-25 21:05:29 UTC"]}
