Solution

The correct option is D Paddy Planter
Planting seedlings in a large area requires lot of labour and time if done manually. In order to overcome these problems, farmers use a device known as a paddy planter. This device maintains a uniform distance between the seedlings, due to which they do not compete for the nutrients or sunlight or water. In simple words, it prevents overcrowding of seedlings and saves a lot of time and effort.
