520			_aThe Philippines is an agricultural country where 47% of its total land is being used for producing agricultural products however, with traditional planting still being used in different parts of the country. Manual planting can cause back pain for the farmers, poor planting efficiencies and low seed spacing quality but modern methods are too costly for a small-scale farmer. The group decided to conduct a study on the design and fabrication of a carabao-pulled two-row multi- seeder which aims to plant seeds of different varieties using a mechanism that supports the local farmers especially in rural areas. The group focused on the seeds of corn, mungbean, and string bean for evaluation. Several factors were considered such as but not limited to (1) land preparation, (2) planting techniques, and (3) row spacing and (4) planter configuration efficiency. The prototype will furrow, seed and cover the soil while being pulled by carabao directed by farmer like in traditional plowing method. It will respond to precision in seed spacing and farming efficiency but with a maintenance that can be done easily.
