SEMI-AUTOMATIC GRAFTING SYSTEM USED ON SEEDLINGS PRODUCTION AT HORTING INSTITUTE - TECHNICAL AND ECONOMIC ASPECTS
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
An important technological measure to prevent crops infestation with diseases and pests from soil is the rotation of crops, but this method is very rarely adopted in greenhouses. The use of grafted plants on resistant genotypes is now widely widespread in worldwide. Plants with a greater resistance to infection from soil-borne pathogens and an increased tolerance towards abiotic stress are obtained from the different grafting techniques. In the last 10 years, in grafting vegetables is a trend to replace the manually grafting with semi-automatic or automatic grafting robots. The objective of this study was to evaluate a series of technical and economic aspects regarding the use of a semiautomatic system to grafting eggplants cultivatrs in order to increase the productivity of grafting. Research has determined that the use of an automated grafting system GR-800CS, manufactured by Helper Robotech Co., Korea, reduces grafting errors and thus increases productivity compared to manual grafting.
