The field evaluation of manually operated garlic planter was done by raising garlic crop in which, speed of planter was 1.8 km/h, actual operating time in 24.6 minute was required to cover area of 0.01 ha with field capacity of 0.0181 ha/h and field efficiency was 78%. The bulk density, moisture content, test weight of garlic seeds, were 1.525 g/cm3, 16.3% and 660 gram respectively. The average plant population (65 plants/m2) of garlic sown by manually operated garlic planter whereas the plant population (75 plants/m2) of garlic sown by traditional method. This did not show significant difference. The germination (%) of garlic after 10 days of sowing by manually operated garlic planter is 69.6% whereas germination by traditional method is 75.6%.
