Sasakyang dinevelop ng mga estudyante, nagpapabilis sa pagtatanim ng punla na palay

Biyaheng Bulacan tayo tonight pero hindi sa kalsada, kundi sa mga sakahan na mahirap taniman ng palay. Ang ating paandar, mala-tricyle pero nagtatanim ng punla. Tara, let's change the game!

00:00We're going to Bulacan tonight, but not on the road, but in farms where it's hard to grow rice.

00:18We're going to ride a tricycle, but we're going to plant rice.

00:23Come on, let's change the game!

00:26According to one song, planting rice is not a joke.

00:31And that's true even for those who grow rice in San Miguel, Bulacan.

00:35We looked at the needs of our farmers here.

00:39Our government gave them cedar.

00:42But their problem there is that it's hard for them to use it.

00:47It's heavy, and it's hard for them to pull it.

00:51What if they plant it like a pedicab?

00:55That's the idea behind The Tricycle,

00:59developed by some students at San Miguel, Bulacan National High School.

01:05We're here with the two members who invented the tricycle cedar.

01:12I'm a farmer's daughter, so I can see what they're doing.

01:16What we're using here in San Miguel requires a lot of physical labor.

01:21We need to hire 3-4 workers.

01:24To solve that, we came up with the concept of making it motorized.

01:28And then the pipe has an even spacing so that the rice won't fight with the nutrients.

01:36That's the key word there, evenly distributed.

01:40Why Malabayk?

01:42The tricycle is beautiful.

01:44We made it innovative and informative.

01:48This was studied and built by their group for 4 months.

01:52This is where we'll put the rice.

01:54When the tricycle rotates, it will fall into these holes.

01:59It can carry up to 2 kilos.

02:022 kilos?

02:03Yes.

02:04How much is this?

02:068 kilos?

02:07Yes.

02:08Wow.

02:09But how does it work?

02:12This is a friction clutch.

02:14Okay.

02:15When you lower it, it will tighten.

02:18It will tighten.

02:20There's a chain here.

02:21The wheel will also rotate.

02:22When the wheel rotates, the hopper will also rotate.

02:24That's where the seed will fall.

02:26It's so slow so that the seed will be accurate.

02:31Aside from the even spacing of the plants,

02:34it only requires one person to operate it.

02:37We conducted a survey for 20 farmers.

02:39Based on my rating, it's of excellent quality.

02:42It has an operator's seat.

02:44It's comfortable and has good mobility.

02:49Let's try it.

02:53It's really comfy and easy to use and effective.

02:56We would like to convert it into a wet seeder

03:01where even if the land is already wet,

03:04farmers can still use it.

03:10There you have it, Kapuso.

03:11It's another amazing invention.

03:13Once developed, it will have a big impact on the agricultural sector.

03:18For GMA Integrated News, I'm Martin Avier,

03:21Changing the Game!
