Abstract
In the part 1 of this series, physical properties of rush seedlings were measured to obtain basic data for manufacturing a planting machine. Furthermore, functions and specifications of the machine were examined based on the result of measurements. In this paper, the planting machine was manufactured and tested. The machine mainly consisted of a planting part moved vertically, a sliding table of tray and a controller. From the results of performance tests, the success rates were around 90%.
