ABSTRACT:
A self-planter having a frame capable of being moved along the ground. A projector is mounted on the frame for forcing plants into ground being traversed by the frame. Plants are fed into a barrel of the projector by a carrying chain that passes through a slot in the bottom of a hopper mounted on the frame for holding a supply of plants to be planted. A catch is provided on the carrying chain for engaging a plant in the hopper and transferring the plant to the projector. The projector advantageously employs a reciprocating piston actuated by rotation of wheels movably supporting the frame.
