It usually rains; therefore we cannot work with too much mud. These days are short and we have to work against the clock.
Few days before starting sowing we have to prepare the seed. This starts drying garlic, after that, we have to thresh them and finally, we will get garlic cloves which will be sown.
Our garlic planting is JJ Broch (other known brand is Erme from France) with 5 rows that lets to sow about 4 ha/day. The biggest problem is we have to fill containers so often therefore we waste/lose too much time with this item. These containers have a capacity 40 Kg. with a small trapdoor to regulate the garlic seeds level inside. We are using about 600 kg of garlic/ha. The distance between rows is of 47cm. and the distance between garlic is about 5cm (Distance in the plantation row can be regulated from 6 to 15 cm, through a very easy pinion shift operation). We can regulate it to obtain the most appropriate plantation depth too. Garlic is sowing with tweezers which get garlic from container to ground. We can change these tweezers with a very easy access and dismount. There are 11 different available sizes. The transmission is developed by 2 driving wheels with a perfect behavior even in the hardest conditions.
Mechanical garlic planting is not very accurate but we can work faster, cheaper and easier than sowing manually, the manner we planting 20 years ago. Nowadays other models are been developed with pneumatic system getting greater precision respect of the distance between garlic.
