A power tiller operated bed planter was developed with locally available materials at Wheat Research Centre, Dinajpur with financial assistance of CIMMYT Bangladesh. The machine enables to make trapezoidal raised bed and can perform seeding operations on the top of the bed simultaneously at one operation. The machine comprises of four major components, namely toolbar frame, furrow opener, seeding unit and bed shaper. Performance of the machine was tested for wheat, maize and mungbean cultivation. The effective field capacities of the machine for wehat, maize and mungbean seeding were 0.10, 0.11 and 0.14 ha/hr, respectively.
