ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an automatic method for planting balled seedlings grown in container trays. According to this invention, the balled seedling (7) is removed from the container by taking hold of it from the top with a fork-like gripping element (16) and transferring it into the ground. For this, a gripping prong (16) which remains in position at the gripping stage and into which the seedling is pushed is used. The seedlings can be planted without breakage or problems and in the correct position.
