Automatic Peanut Seeder | Peanut Sowing Machine
Features at a Glance
The peanut planter integrates fertilizing, seeding, and soil covering into one unit. Optional functions such as spraying, mulching, rolling, and rotary tilling can be selected based on planting requirements, enabling multi-purpose operation and completing multiple processes in a single pass.
The equipment offers multiple configurations including 2-row, 4-row, 6-row, and 8-row models, with customizable row counts. It supports diverse planting methods such as ridge cultivation, plastic mulch planting, and flat-ground planting.
Mechanized operation significantly boosts planting efficiency. Compared to traditional manual methods, it saves substantial labor time, reduces farmers’ workload intensity, and enhances planting standardization, making it the ideal equipment for modern large-scale peanut cultivation.
What are functions of peanut planter?
The peanut planter is a three-point suspension-type peanut planting comprehensive operation machine. And this machine must work with a tractor. This peanut planting machine can complete operations such as ditching, ridging, seeding, fertilization, spraying, buried drip irrigation pipe, film mulching, and soil covering at one time.
Also, this peanut planter’s ridge width, ridge height, seeding depth, seed number, row spacing, ridge distance, film width, and hanging position are all adjustable. Compared with manual operation, it can improve work efficiency by more than 20 times and can ensure consistent seeding row spacing, plant spacing, and depth.


Advantages of peanut seeds sowing machine
- Capable of completing multiple processes in a single pass, including seeding, fertilizing, leveling, spraying, mulching, mulch pressing, and soil covering.
- Available in 2-row, 4-row, 6-row, and 8-row configurations with customizable row counts to accommodate diverse planting scales.
- Features high-precision seed dispensers for uniform seeding, minimizing skips and seed rot while ensuring plant spacing meets agronomic standards.
- Low mechanical resistance reduces energy consumption by approximately 30%, saving power costs.
- High adaptability ensures stable operation even in fields with weeds or suboptimal soil preparation.
- Equipped with a film-pressing mechanism that eliminates manual labor, effectively preventing plastic mulch from being lifted by strong winds and enhancing planting stability.




Groundnut planter’s working process
First, the fertilizer in the fertilizer box enters the fertilizing shovel through the outer wheel groove fertilizer applicator. The shovel digs the soil layer while applying the fertilizer to the soil.
When the planter completes the fertilization process, the seeds in the seed metering device enter the ditch under the drive of the gear. So the seeds in the sowing box enter the planter.
The ditch discharging device sows the peanut seeds evenly in the two ditches while discharging the soil and ditching to complete the sowing process.
The herbicide barrel is installed on the front end of the tractor, and the air inlet end is installed on the air outlet of the air storage barrel of the tractor air compressor. The tractor can give it a certain air pressure to achieve the purpose of spraying, thereby completing ridging at one time.
