- Intervention effect Belt type significantly affected miss index at P<0.01.
- Intervention effect Belt type significantly affected multiple index at P<0.05.
- Intervention effect Belt type significantly affected mean at P<0.05.
- Intervention effect No studied variable significantly affected seedling damage.
- Intervention effect Belt type by velocity ratio interactions significantly affected quality of feed index at P < 0.01.
- Intervention effect Increasing velocity ratio in plastic toothed belts decreased mean and miss indexes.
- Intervention effect Increasing linear velocities increased consumed seedlings for both carrier belt types.
- Intervention effect Increasing linear velocities decreased miss length for both carrier belt types.
- Intervention effect Metal toothed belts had less miss length than plastic toothed belts at both velocity ratios.
- Method / resource An automatic device for separating individual bare root onion seedlings was manufactured and evaluated.
- Method / resource A carrier belt with long rigid teeth and an attack angle separated seedlings more efficiently.
- Method / resource The metering system could increase uniformity of seedling distances by 80 percent.
