PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a movable cultivation device which circularly moves a plurality of cultivation benches along a closed loop formed by a pair of vertical guide devices and a pair of lateral conveying devices, and automatically performs a series of treatments including watering and chemical spraying.SOLUTION: Lateral conveying devices comprise at least one of a watering device 31 watering plants on cultivation benches during conveyance and a chemical sprayer 32 spraying a chemical for insect pest control. A movable cultivation device is provided with the lateral conveying devices, push units moving the cultivation benches from the lateral conveying devices to vertical guide devices, and a controller 600 controlling at least one of the watering device 31 and the chemical sprayer 32. The controller 600 operates at least one of the watering device 31 and the chemical sprayer 32 in a prescribed timing and for a prescribed time counted by a built-in timer 601 after the lateral conveying devices start conveying the cultivation benches.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 18COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】一対の縦案内装置と一対の横搬送装置で形成された閉ループに沿って複数の栽培ベンチを循環移動する移動栽培装置において、潅水や薬剤散布を含む一連の処理を自動的に行う。【解決手段】横搬送装置は、搬送中の栽培ベンチ上の植物に対して潅水を行う潅水装置31及び害虫防除用の薬剤散布を行う薬剤散布装置32の少なくとも一方を備え、横搬送装置と、横搬送装置から縦案内装置へ栽培ベンチを移動するプッシュユニットと、潅水装置31及び薬剤散布装置32の少なくとも一方とを制御するコントローラ600が設けられ、コントローラ600は、横搬送装置による栽培ベンチの搬送開始後、内蔵のタイマー601で計時された所定のタイミングで所定時間だけ潅水装置31及び薬剤散布装置32の少なくとも一方を作動させる。【選択図】図18
