PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for arranging and supplying field crops, with which detections of husking start parts of the field crops having various lengths and operations for making the field crops stand in rows in an arranged state of the husking start parts on the approximately same lines are accurately and surely carried out. SOLUTION: A fixed number of placing stands 2a... of a conveyor 2 are intermittently moved in a transportation direction each time, the husking start part Ad of a Welsh onion A placed on each of the placing stands 2a... is imaged by an image pickup camera 19 and the husking start part Ad of the Welsh onion A is individually determined based on the information on the image by a controller 22. The fixed number of the placing stands 2a... intermittently moved in an arrangement section c, arrangement units 14... of the apparatus 11 for arranging and supplying the field crops are independently driven based on the determination by the controller 22 approximately synchronously with transportation action by the conveyor 2. The root part Aa side of the Welsh onion A is retained by a pair of supporters 14a, moved in a direction approximately perpendicular to the transportation direction and the Welsh onions are arranged and corrected in a state that the husking start parts Ad of the Welsh onions A are arranged on the approximately same lines in the transportation direction.
