Abstract :The seed metering mechanism is the most important unit of potato planters. Accuracy of row plant spacing depends on the ability of the seed metering mechanism. The ability of the seed metering mechanism is directly associated with the constructive and operational variables of the planter. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different cups sizes (C1
