Abstract

Agriculture is a strategic field in assessing food needs, where determining the quality and quantity of food production is the first step. Manual planting methods often produce unsatisfactory results, require a lot of labor, and reduce productivity, which has a negative impact on plant growth and land productivity. This study aims to develop, create, and test an innovative planting seed prototype that can improve planting efficiency, seed spacing accuracy, and seed depth. The method used is research and development (R&D) with a focus on field experiments. The research steps include identifying needs through surveys and farmer interviews, analyzing tools using CAD software, creating prototypes, and conducting field trials. The purpose of the field trial was to improve planting time efficiency, planting distance and depth uniformity, and their impact on growth and yield. The data was analyzed quantitatively by comparing manual and automatic results, with statistical significance determined. The study findings indicate that the innovative seed planting tool can significantly reduce planting time, produce more accurate and consistent results, and increase yield potential compared to manual methods. Additionally, the device's design is ergonomic, easy to use, and applicable to various types of land. These findings suggest that seed planting tool innovations have the potential to serve as a practical solution for enhancing agricultural productivity in a modern, efficient, and sustainable manner.
