Design and development of tractor operated variable depth fertilizer applicator was developed and evaluated for wheat crop planted on bed cultivation system. Because ammonia did not evaporated to the atmosphere due to placing of fertilizer at a depth of 100 mm below the soil surface. The saving of fertilizer placed in the soil by tractor operated fertilizer applicator was 33.33 and 16.6 kg/ha as compared to broadcast and foliar application methods.
