This has led to demand from various farmer groups and societies through thevarious states ADPs for an improved, effective and faster means of carrying out theplanting operation since the imported planter are majorly beyond the purchasingpower of an average farmer in Nigeria. In response to the demands NCAM developeda tractor drawn multi-seed planter with aim of solving the problem and encouragingfarmers to increase their production scale. The planter was designed for plantingseed crops namely maize; beans and guinea corn and the crops were used to test thethree available seed plates for the machine. The field test was carried out gave a seedmetering efficiency of 85%, field efficiency of 75.68%,effective field capacity of0.7675 ha/h, at an average planting depth of 2.53cm, and an average spacing of 48cm intra row. The result showed that NCAM developed multi-seed planter performedsatisfactorily when subjected to field operation and can as well reduce drudgery facedby Nigerian farmers during planting operation.
