The machine has a stationary disc body provided on a side facing away from a seed-material container (2). Driver slots are distributed over the circumference of the container and extended over a radial extent region of a guide slot (5). Seed grains in intake openings are discharged out of the container along the guide slot to perform emptying of residues of the container. The container includes an emptying flap (17) that is coaxially pivoted with respect to a seeding disc between closed and open positions.
