A biodegradable sowing vessel comprises a plurality of sowing cells with any desired sizes, and is made of a methylen-urea material, with properties of a fertilizer slowly releasing nitrogen or a wood matrix having amending features for the soil. After having achieved his function of receiving the small plants deriving from germinated seeds or vegetating portions of rooted plants, the sowing vessel according to the invention can be crushed and distributed through the soil, either as a nitrogenous fertilizer, in the case of the methylen-urea material, or as an organic substrate, in the case of a wood-like matrix, at the reimplantation operation or by a following operation.

Abstract
A biodegradable sowing vessel comprises a plurality of sowing cells with any desired sizes, and is made of a methylen-urea material, with properties of a fertilizer slowly releasing nitrogen or a wood matrix having amending features for the soil. After having achieved his function of receiving the small plants deriving from germinated seeds or vegetating portions of rooted plants, the sowing vessel according to the invention can be crushed and distributed through the soil, either as a nitrogenous fertilizer, in the case of the methylen-urea material, or as an organic substrate, in the case of a wood-like matrix, at the reimplantation operation or by a following operation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
