近年來蔬菜採移植式栽培日益普遍，因移植式栽培使植株行株距均勻一致，蔬菜生長空間充足，養份及水份更容易均勻分配。不但縮短本田栽培時間，對於提高蔬菜之產量及品質有極大的助益。惟目前的移植作業大部分仰賴人工為之，市售移植機宥於價格不菲及操作性仍有不足致未普及。但農業缺工日益嚴重，不僅僱工成本逐年增加，甚至面臨無工可僱的窘境。為改善蔬菜移植缺工的衝擊，本研究配合造塊育苗，開發半自動塊苗式蔬菜移植機。作業時每次投放8個塊苗，繼之，由移植機自動完成分苗及定植作業。經測試移植0.1公頃約1～2小時。

Vegetable transplant cultivation is becoming more and more popular in recent years, transplanted cultivation makes the plant spacing uniform, vegetable growth space is sufficient, nutrients and water are more easily distributed evenly, not only shortening the cultivation time in the field, but also greatly improving the yield and quality of vegetables. However, most of the current transplant operations rely on labor, and the commercial transplant machines are not popular due to their high price and lack of operability. However, the lack of labor in agriculture is becoming more and more serious. Not only does the cost of employment increase year by year, but it also faces the dilemma of no employment. In order to improve the impact of lack of labor in vegetable transplants, this study used a block seedling to develop a semi-automatic block-type vegetable transplanter. 8 pieces of seedlings are placed each time during the operation, and then the seedlings and planting operations are automatically completed by the transplanter, the test results were transplanted to 0.1 hectares for about 3 to 4 hours.
