Third World Hand Planter http://nue.okstate.edu/Hand_Planter/summary_HP1.pdf

Benefits Remove chemically treated seeds from the hands of small farmers Decreased soil erosion from improved plant spacing Accommodate mid-season applications of urea-N fertilizer Place urea below the surface reducing NH3 losses Adoptable technology for virtually all 3rd world corn producers Potential to provide significant increases in third-world corn production. World Values World corn, 400,000,000 acres Developing world corn, 83,000,000 acres Developing world corn acres planted by hand (60% of total) 50,994,152 ac* 25% increase on world hand planted corn ($6.00/bu) = $2,270,994,660
