Prior to transplanting, seedlings need to be raised in a nursery. Seedling nurseries usually use 5−10% of the total farming area.

When choosing the appropriate nursing system, the availability of sunlight, water, labor, land, and agricultural implements should be considered.

We used dry-bed method for this project.

1. First, we prepared the beds with a one meter width and a variable length according to cultivation area of project.
2. Then the seeds were spread in completely empty and leveled soil.
3. Moisture stress was prevented by irrigation.
4. Seedlings transplanted at 15−21 days old.

Seedlings raised in a dry-bed are short, strong, and has a longer root system than those raised in wet-beds.
