Abstract
An electronic device for counting seeds in the size range from flax to barley has been developed. The device consists essentially of a vibration feed which feeds the seeds individually to a counter. The impact of the falling seeds on a piezo-electric crystal gives rise to electrical impulses which are amplified and counted. The accuracy of counting is good. The speed of counting varies from 200 to 300 per minute.Keywords
