The study was conducted that the comparison between the planting of onion by manually operated onion bulblet planter over a hand planting method (Traditional method of planting) in the college of Agricultural Engineering JNKVV Jabalpur. A manually operated onion bulblet planter was developed with an inclined plate metering device. The performance evaluation of developed planter in term of field efficiency and missing hill percentage. And it also compares the cost and time of operation of developed planter over a hand planting. The results showed that the field efficiency was 83.33% with chisel type furrow opener and the missing index percentage was 2.22%. It observed that the cost of planting by manually operated onion bulblet planter was Rs. 1790.81 per hectare of land as compared to the hand planting method for one hectare of land was required 65 man days and cost of Rs. 9300.
