What is the difference between a Super Seeder and a Happy Seeder in agriculture?

Asked By : Amar Deshpande

Showing All 1 Answers

The Super Seeder and Happy Seeder are both modern agricultural implements used for sowing crops like wheat after harvesting paddy, but they function differently.

The Super Seeder combines a rotavator and seeder, which tills the soil, cuts the paddy stubble, and mixes it into the soil while sowing seeds. This process improves soil organic content but requires higher fuel and power consumption.

On the other hand, the Happy Seeder enables direct sowing into standing stubble without requiring soil tillage. It cuts the straw and deposits it as mulch on the soil surface, conserving moisture, reducing weed growth, and promoting sustainable farming.

While the Super Seeder is ideal for farmers looking to incorporate stubble and improve soil fertility, the Happy Seeder is more suitable for conservation agriculture with minimal soil disturbance. Both machines help reduce stubble burning.
