Wheat handle type, also known as hammer-shaking hand, refers to the person who grinds wheat with a hammer and masters the depth of hammer foot and the frequency of hammer-shaking, that is, the person who can master the sowing depth and density of wheat. Shaker must have rich experience in wheat planting, be familiar with the characteristics and functions of shaker, and master the frequency of shaker skillfully.
