Planting can be performed by either animal or mechanized traction. In the case of Family Farming it is very common to use cattle or horses to pull equipment suitable for small areas with the function of depositing seeds in the soil. Definition of the ideal type of machinery to perform this service is of fundamental importance. The needs of farmers were studied by creating a decision-making model based on Home Quality Matrix, which yielded important information for designing of a seeder for family farmers who use animals as a means of traction. Results showed that the use of this design methodology provides a significant gain in knowledge during the informational project phase. Among the design requirements obtained as the most important, three are related to the production process and the other to machine design.
