What is transplantation method of sowing …

The process of transferring the seedlings from the nursery to the main field by hand is called transplantation or transplanting.
The various advantages of the transplantation process are given below:
(i) The process of transplantation enables us to select only the better and healthy seedlings for the cultivation of crops. The bad seedlings can be rejected. This selection is, however, not possible when the seeds are directly sown in the soil.
(ii) The process of transplantation allows better penetration (deeper penetration) of the roots in the soil.
(iii) The process of transplantation promotes better development of the shoot system of plants.
(iv) The process of transplantation allows the seedlings to be planted at the right spacings so that the plants may get uniform dose of sunlight, water and nutrients.

Transplanting is a process in which a fully grown seedling or plant is taken out from the soil and transplanted to its permanent location. Transplanting increases the flower or fruit-bearing season of many plants, thus it helps in economic growth and therefore it is an important method followed in agribusiness.
