dc.description.abstractThe Multi-Seed Planter is a machine designed to provide an innovative and cost-effective solution for small-scale farmers. It can be used in planting maize, okra, and pole sitao while addressing the challenges associated with manual seed planting such as labor intensity, time constraints, and physical strain. The multi-seed planter is designed to offer optimal field efficiency, reduce fuel consumption, and increase planting capacity. Through developmental research, the study employed a systematic process involving design conceptualization, material procurement, assembly, testing, and performance evaluation.It was conceptualized and planned at DMMMSU-MLUC, and it was fabricated in Payocpoc Norte Este, Bauang, La Union from January to March 2025. Key performance indicators such as effective field capacity, theoretical field capacity, and fuel consumption per unit area were measured over ten trials. The outcomes demonstrated the planter's viability in reducing planting time, improving ergonomics, and minimizing costs. This research aligns with the goals of the Philippine AFMech Law, promoting agricultural mechanization to modernize farming practices and achieve food security.
