PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid such a problem that a seedling is planted in an unfertilized state caused by abnormality of an endless body for transmitting fertilization motive power.SOLUTION: The sulky transplanter includes: a fertilizer tank 12 for storing a paste fertilizer: a fertilizing nozzle 13 for discharging the paste fertilizer into soil a fertilizing pump 14 for sending the paste fertilizer in the fertilizer tank 12 to the fertilizing nozzle 13 and a fertilizing speed changer 16 for shifting motive power of the fertilizing pump 14. The sulky transplanter further includes: a fertilizing transmission detection switch 54 for detecting removal, cut and/or elongation of a transmission chain 45 for transmitting the power from the fertilizing speed changer 16 to the fertilizing pump 14 and a fertilizing transmission notification lamp 57 and a notification buzzer 59 for notifying of abnormality of the transmission chain 45 in response to the detection of the fertilizing transmission detection switch 54.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】施肥動力を伝動する無端体の異常に起因し、無施肥状態で苗が植え付けられてしまうという問題を回避する。【解決手段】ペースト肥料を貯溜する肥料タンク12と、ペースト肥料を土中に吐出する施肥ノズル13と、肥料タンク12内のペースト肥料を施肥ノズル13に送る施肥ポンプ14と、施肥ポンプ14の動力を変速する施肥変速装置16とを備える乗用型田植機において、施肥変速装置16から施肥ポンプ14へ動力を伝動する伝動チェーン45の外れ、切断、及び/又は伸びを検出する施肥伝動検出スイッチ54と、施肥伝動検出スイッチ54の検出に応じて伝動チェーン45の異常を報知する施肥伝動報知ランプ57、報知ブザー59を備える。【選択図】図9
