                    [Title] => Engine-driven rice transplanter is cheaper
                    [Summary] => Farmers can avoid the labor-intensive and costly manual rice transplanting in puddled soils by shifting to an engine-driven mechanical transplanter.


The traditional manual transplanting of rice in puddled soils requires 10 to 20 man-days per hectare. During peak planting period, labor is scarce. This results in a demand for high wage rate, which makes farm production costly.
