20110232551 | Earth working digging tool and system for digging holes in ground - This invention was intended to develop an earth working equipment and system for digging holes in ground particularly in agricultural soils for needs including but not limited to transplanting of seedlings of flowers, vegetables, fruits, bushes, and shrubs; and for making holes for other purposes where hollow-cylindrical shapes are desired. One very important feature of the equipment is the provision of a removable or embeddable cylindrical retaining wall around the hole being dug thus preventing hole-deforming avalanches of soils, common in trowel assisted hole digging that results in V-shaped rather than cylindrical shaped holes. This provision and other features of the equipment ensure formation of consistent hollow-cylindrical holes effectively, efficiently and economically. The equipment consists of a tilling tool to loosen the soil, a screw conveyor to dig into and transport the soil away, and a cylindrical retaining wall to maintain cylindrical shape of the hole by preventing soil avalanches. | 09-29-2011 |

20160095275 | SEED SOWING IMPLEMENT - A sowing implement comprises a stake, a depth marker, instructions and a seed support. The stake may comprise a lower end and an upper end. The depth marker may be arranged on the stake at a first predetermined distance from the lower end. The instructions may be arranged on the stake. The seed support may be connected to the stake and configured to hold one or more seeds at a second predetermined distance below the depth marker. | 04-07-2016 |

20100083885 | GRANULE DISPENSING TOOL - A granule dispensing device is provided and includes a chamber having a predetermined volume for housing granules and defining a flow path for a flow of granules, a valve assembly for controlling the flow path, and an actuator configured to actuate the valve assembly for dispensing the granules. | 04-08-2010 |
20140352584 | Granular Fertilizer Dispenser Apparatus - The fertilizer dispenser apparatus has contoured wheels and tines extending radially therefrom, enabling preparation of the surface area to be treated. The tines enable the targeted site to be exposed prior to fertilization. Then, a trigger mechanism is engaged and a metering auger dispenses a controlled amount of fertilizer. The surface treatment enables the fertilizer to be inserted into the soil onto the root system of the plant targeted for growth. After fertilization, the apparatus in maneuvered to cover the newly applied fertilizer with available soil. A manually operated version is powered by the motion of the wheels, whereby the user engages the trigger mechanism and using the forward and rearward motion of the apparatus, dispenses a metered amount of fertilizing agent to a specific area. Also, the surface treatment results in less handling of fertilizer, and a reduction in the amount of wind-blown fertilizer needed. | 12-04-2014 |
20160037711 | SINGULATING HAND PLANTER AND FERTILIZER APPLICATOR - A device and method for hand planting cereal grain seed, and other crops where singulation (single seeds planted per strike) is taught. The device and method are capable of serving as a small scale fertilizer and alternative product applicator. The inventive method includes the capability of applying fertilizer and/or other products that are collected and dispensed via a reciprocating drum device. The device preferably includes a tapered (or pointed) soil engagement component capable of striking or penetrating the soil surface. With each planter strike to the soil surface, the device is actuated to meter a granular material product and the reciprocating drum rotates to expose the cavity to a material hopper. As the actuation force is released, the reciprocating drum rotates in the opposite direction to its original location and drops the material that has been metered. | 02-11-2016 |

20140338578 | Planting Grid Device - The present seed spacing and planting device consists of a planar member with a plurality of sidewalls having beveled edges extending vertically therefrom, with an integral or removable grid. A plurality of evenly spaced pegs or apertures are disposed along the face of the base, aligned with said sidewalls. The present device is pressed into the ground, edges downwards, to create a plurality of depressions for planting either seeds or seedlings therein. For embodiments having pegs, the pegs automatically create the depressions because they are pressed into the soil along with the beveled edges. For embodiments having apertures, a dibble is additionally provided which is pushed through said apertures for creating the planting depressions. | 11-20-2014 |
