A plastic drum seeder, introduced from Vietnam in 2003, has subsequently been evaluated extensively in research-station and on-farm trials in Bangladesh. Direct wet-seeded rice using a drum seeder is an emerging technology that could improve grain yield by 10-15%, reduce seed requirements substantially, and reduce labor dependency. This paper discusses the performance of direct wet seeding with a drum seeder, discusses farmers' perceptions of the technology, and identifies keys to using the seeder successfully.
