Abstract
A seedling with soil selecting and transporting apparatus for a transplanting machine which can steadily and certainly discriminate good seedlings with soil and no good seedlings with soil without causing operation failure by deposition of a clump of earth even if external vibration and/or slight disturbance is caused in transporting attitude of the seedling with soil. The seedling with soil selecting and transporting apparatus for a transplanting machine transports good seedlings having leaf portions grown into a normal length and no good seedlings having leaf portions not grown into a normal length. The apparatus comprises a strip form transporting belt transporting good and no good seedlings with soil in an attitude wherein they are fallen sideways and have concentrically mounted soil depositing portions on one outer side edge portion of the strip form transporting belt. A clamping belt clamps leaf portions of good seedlings with soil among the good and no good seedlings mounted on the strip form transporting belt. The strip form transporting belt has its one outer side edge deflected downwardly for slipping down only no good seedlings having leaf portions not clamped by the clamping belt.
