PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seedling planter that easily carries out operations, even if rainwater is collected on a mulchi film.SOLUTION: In the seedling planter in which a seedling planting body 20, moving vertically on a fixed operation locus by a vertical movement mechanism 21 and plants seedlings on a field is arranged and soil covering press wheels 37 are installed behind the seedling planting body 20, the seedling planter is equipped with a plurality of needle-like projections 37a on the grounded surfaces of the soil-covering press wheels 37. Since the seedling planter is equipped with a plurality of the needle-like projections 37a on the grounded surfaces of the soil covering press wheels 37, even if a mulch film is laid on the surface of a field, a plurality of holes are bored through the mulchi film is easily moved to a field and water on the mulchi film is removed.COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT【課題】雨水がマルチフィルム上に溜まっても作業が容易に行える苗植機を提供すること。【解決手段】上下動機構21により所定の作動軌跡で上下動して圃場に苗を植え付ける苗植付け体20を配列し、該苗植付け体20の後方に覆土鎮圧輪37を設けた苗植機において、覆土鎮圧輪37の接地面に複数の針状の突起37aを設けた苗植機である。覆土鎮圧輪37の接地面に複数の針状の突起37aを設けたので、マルチフィルムが圃場面に敷き込まれていても、複数の針状の突起37aでマルチフィルムに複数穴を開けて、マルチフィルム上の水分が容易に圃場に移行して、マルチフィルム上の水分を除くことができる。【選択図】図1
