A method and apparatus for sowing seeds using compressed-air pulses is provided. The apparatus includes a seed supply, a compressed-air duct extending to a sowing site, a compressed-air pulse producer for sending compressed-air pulses through the duct, and a seed dispenser communicating with the seed supply and the duct. The seed dispenser includes a reciprocating piston having an adjustable seed amount metering space for receiving a quantity of seeds from the seed supply. The piston is also biased toward the duct and has a depressible portion communicating with the duct. The piston moves toward a loading position when a compressed-air pulse exerts pressure against the depressible portion and returns toward a dispensing position in the absence of a compressed-air pulse exerting pressure against the depressible portion, the metering space communicating with the seed supply when the piston is in the loading position and the metering space communicating with the duct when the piston is in the dispensing position. |

Novel methods are provided for the preparation and delivery of botanic seeds which are pregerminated and maintained in a hydrated state in gel capsules. Various types of botanic seeds are encapsulated, in some embodiments, with beneficial additives, in a gel matrix and pregerminated. These pregerminated seeds emerge more quickly than raw seeds from a number of planting matrices. These seeds can be encapsulated and pregerminated in variously described ways. |

Method and apparatus for planting seeds in a field. An anti-cohesion liquid chemical is injected at 30 to 50 p.s.i. into a narrow ribbon of soil, no more than two inches wide and two inches deep. Immediately thereafter, the soil ribbon is vigorously agitated at 900 to 2000 r.p.m. to insure coating of all of the soil particles with the chemical to a depth below that at which the seed is to be planted. The seeds are then placed at precise locations within and covered by the treated soil, and the soil over them is firmed. |

A rotating row marker equipped with both transverse and longitudinal imprinting projections impresses a grid-type pattern into the soil for precise placement of seeds or seedlings in a subsequent planting operation. One of the transverse projections houses an eccentric weight for gravitationally returning the row marker to a predetermined position when the row marker is raised above the earth. |

A method for planting seeds in a pattern comprising longitudinal and transverse rows of seed planting sites, in which the transverse rows cross the longitudinal rows, the improvement comprising: planting the seeds with a seed-to-seed spacing of 1 to 31/2 inches along both the longitudinal and transverse rows, preferably in an approximately square, equidistant pattern. The equidistant spacing, in contrast with row-type spacing where plants are spaced relatively far apart in one direction and close together in the other direction, provides a significant improvement in the growth of the plants, and particularly encourages "stooling" or multiple sprouting of cereal grains and grasses. |

A frame is provided from which front and rear pairs of opposite side wheels are journalled. A prime mover is mounted on the frame and drivingly connected to at least one pair of the wheels thereof. The frame defines a longitudinal center line and the wheels are disposed in four vertical planes paralleling the center line and spaced equally apart transversely of the frame. The wheels include narrow outer peripheral portions adapted, due to the gross weight of the planter, to form narrow depressed tracks in cultivated ground over which the planter travels and each of the wheels has seed planting structure operatively associated therewith and to discharge seeds into the depressed ground tracks at a metered rate. The axes of rotation of the wheels are spaced below the frame of the planter and each wheel has a rearwardly opening V-shaped wheat divider or similar crop stand divider operatively associated therewith for parting the crop stand through which the planter is being moved immediately ahead of the wheels of the planter. |

An implement attachment has a row of soil working members that are rotated about upwardly extending axes defined by shafts journalled in an elongated frame portion. One or more further implements are pivoted to respective points on the frame portion and are positioned to the rear of a supporting roller located behind the working members. The further implements can be material dispensing and each has a draw bar connected to a pivot point so that the further implements can each independently pivot about an upwardly extending axis. Delivery members on each further implement are raised automatically by a cable connection to an anchorage on the frame portion when the implement is raised by a lifting device of the prime mover for transport. The further implements are supported on ground wheels during operation and transport. |

Means in a seed drilling machine for visual control of the seed rate desired for each unit of length travelled, comprising a control feeder disposed in the feed path between an adjustable seed feeder and a coulter. The control feeder has one or more pockets capable of control by the operator and said pockets are movable transversely of the seed path and operated by the driving wheel of the seed drilling machine or other soil-operated wheel at a speed which is adapted to the length of travel such that the number of seeds in the single pocket or more indicate to the operator how many are sown per unit of length travelled, for example, per meter.
