It is a time-consuming operation requiring about 250-300 man-h ha-1, accounting for about·25 per cent of total labour requirement of paddy crop.To obviate problems of labour scarcity for manual transplanting during peak seasons and for accomplishing the timelines of operation, transplanting should be done either by manual transplanter or self-propelled transplanter.In Asia, more than 60 per cent farmers have land holding size less than 2 ha.
