There are three main types. One kind has opener shoe that runs in the soil, then you place plants by hand in trench in front of closing wheels.

The newer type is called a water wheel transplanter that pokes a hole thruough plastic mulch, adds water, then you drop the plant in from where you are sitting down low behind it.

There is an older style which was probably used for tobacco on local craiglist for $650: https://evansville.craigslist.org/grd/d/trafalgar-1-row-mechanical-trans-planter/7066070538.html
