TAILIEUCHUNG - Some physical properties of paddy seeds and fertilizer

Knowledge on physical properties of seeds is one of the most important parameter before designing of agricultural machines or any other equipment. The variety of paddy seeds taken for the study was Karma Missouri and shape was cylindrical while variety of fertilizer taken for study was DAP granules and shape was round. The research work was carried out in the laboratory at the Department of Farm Machinery and Power, SVCAET&RS, IGKV, Raipur. | EXCELLENT PUBLISHERS International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN 2319-7706 Volume 7 Number 02 2018 Journal homepage http Original Research Article https Some Physical Properties of Paddy Seeds and Fertilizer Kipoo Kiran Singh Mahilang1 Khilendra Sonboier2 Pankai Mini2 I CT CT 7 7 J J 7 Yogesh Jaisawal2 Navneet Khare3 and Tapti Taran Mahilang4 1Department of FMP SVCAET RS IGKV Raipur CG India 2Department of APFE SHIATS Allahabad UP India 3Department of APFE SVCAET RS IGKV Raipur CG India 4Department of FPT Bilaspur University Bilaspur CG India Corresponding author ABSTRACT Keywords Paddy DAP Sphericity Paddy drum seeders Geometric mean diameter Article Info Accepted 04 January 2018 Available Online 10 February 2018 Knowledge on physical properties of seeds is one of the most important parameter before designing of agricultural machines or any other equipment. The variety of paddy seeds taken for the study was Karma Mahsuri and shape was cylindrical while variety of fertilizer taken for study was DAP granules and shape was round. The research work was carried out in the laboratory at the Department of Farm Machinery and Power SVCAET RS IGKV Raipur. The main aim of the study was to determine the physical properties of paddy seeds and fertilizer DAP granules which will be beneficial for designing of sowing related machines like Paddy drum seeders seed drills and seed cum fertilizer drills. Test Parameters taken for the study were geometric dimensions of Paddy seeds and DAP granules . Average length L width W and thickness T Geometric mean diameter Dp Sphericity Ộ Mass and Bulk density. The results showed that the average length width and thickness of paddy seeds varied from to mm to mm and to mm respectively while DAP granules varied from to mm to mm and to mm respectively. The bulk density by Mohsenin method for paddy seed was
