Increasing demand for the optimization of crop production necessitates the use of precision planting for both timeliness and subsequent field operations. This study was carried out at Almigrih to compare the performance of a modified seed drill (VISPA) with the conventional wide level disc (WLD) traditionally used for sowing in the rainfed subsector. Results showed that seed drill was 60% faster and efficient than the WLD, about 60% less fuel consumption. VISPA can save about half the sesame seeds consumed by the WLD at 5cm within row spacing. For sorghum, the VISPA gave the recommended population at 25cm within row spacing while the WLD about 337% of the recommended.
