Description: Let modern technology work for you! The future of seed plot planting is all about automation. Field staff no longer need to ride on a planter with seed packets, which reduces the risk of human error, operator fatigue, and physical strain.  The latest trend in automated plot planting technology helps to alleviate recruiting challenges and is the pinnacle of safe operations for seed research companies. Learn more about these trends from the leader in seed research technology development, ALMACO.

Why it Matters to the Seed Industry: With the current economic climate, staff shortages are a problem for everyone. Plot planter automation is the latest planting trend which allows organizations to operate with less staff in the field. People no longer need to ride on a planter to dump coin packets full of seed, which alleviates recruiting efforts, improves planting accuracy, and increases safety as well. Operators do not have to ride on planters, so there is no risk of anyone falling, less risk of operator fatigue, and less risk of muscle strain lifting boxes of seed packets on and off the planter. It can help organizations big and small to create a more sustainable operation system and can really save the day with the challenges placed today.
