A planter system for planting seeds and dispensing a fluid includes a seeder assembly including a seed meter configured to dispense a group of seeds through a seed tube, a nozzle assembly configured to dispense the fluid in response to receiving a control signal, and a sensor configured to transmit detection signals upon detection of the first and last seeds passing through the seed tube. The planter system further includes a control system communicatively coupled to the sensor to receive the detection signals from the sensor and identify a trigger time based on the detection time of the first seed, the detection time of the last seed, or a time between the detection times. The control system transmits the control signal to the nozzle assembly based on a number of seeds in the group and the trigger time to apply the fluid on or adjacent the group of seeds.

A particle delivery system of an agricultural row unit includes a particle disc configured to receive a plurality of particles from a particle metering and singulation unit, and a particle belt configured to receive each particle of the plurality of particles from the particle disc and to expel the particle to a trench in soil. The particle disc is configured to accelerate each particle of the plurality of particles to a target particle transfer speed.

The multifunctional agricultural machine includes a vehicle body with a plurality of wheels rotatably mounted thereon. At least one sensor is mounted on a front end of the vehicle body for measuring at least one soil condition. At least one soil excavation unit is mounted on the vehicle body for digging a hole in the soil. A seed tank is in communication with the at least one soil excavation unit for delivering a selectable number of seeds thereto. The at least one soil excavation unit is configured to drop the selectable number of seeds into the hole in the soil. A water tank is in fluid communication with the at least one soil excavation unit for delivering a selectable volume of water thereto. The at least one soil excavation unit is further configured to dispense the selectable volume of water in the hole in the soil.

A planter system includes a seeder assembly including a seed meter configured to dispense groups of seeds at intervals through a seed tube. The planter system also includes a sensor configured to transmit a first detection signal upon detection of a first seed passing through the seed tube and a second detection signal upon detection of a second seed passing through the seed tube. A control system is configured to compare a time between the first and second detection signals to a threshold time; determine that the first seed and the second seed are in a single group of seeds when the time between the first and second detection signals is less than the threshold time; and determine that the first seed and the second seed are in different groups of seeds if the time between the first and second detection signals is greater than the threshold time.
