Method for planting agricultural products

Abstract

A method, a container, and a planting device are provided for improving seedling emergence from seeds through soil and improving yield of plants in a field. The method includes selectively planting two seeds next to one another within the soil to provide sufficient emergence energy so the seedlings emerge together through the soil. One of the seedlings is then selectively destroyed to provide a desired spacing between plants in the field. A capsule is provided to contain plantable agricultural products. The capsule enables uniform and consistent planting plantable agricultural products, enables close proximity planting of multiple plantable agricultural products next to one another, and enables uniform and consistent engagement and dispensing of the seeds by planting equipment. A planting device, defined by a planter plate, is designed to consistently and uniformly plant the capsules containing agricultural products within the field.
