Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hill seeder capable of accurately carrying out high-speed hill seeding. SOLUTION: The hill seeder is equipped with a nearly cylindrical drum 2 facing to a seed discharging part 51 of a hopper 5 for housing vegetable seeds 8 and rotatably arranged with a stator 3 as the center. Attraction holes 20 are bored at a prescribed interval on the lateral face 25 of the drum 2 and the interior of the drum 2 is kept under a negative pressure to attract the seeds 8 in the hopper 5 to the attraction holes 20. After rotating the drum 20 and transporting the seeds 8, a positive pressure is applied to the attraction holes 20 arriving at a seed releasing part 6 to release the seeds 8 from the attraction holes 20 to a sowing surface 9. In the hill seeder 1, an accumulator 4 is installed in the interior 22 of the drum 2 and pressurization is carried out from air releasing ports 41 of the accumulator 4 toward the attraction holes 20 of the seed releasing part 6.
