PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a direct planting machine that can work on dry rice field direct planting even one day earlier after rain fall.SOLUTION: A direct planting machine is characterized in that: a grooving device E is installed in a machine body B towed by a tractor T; the grooving device E is configured such that a large number of grooving rings W are attached to a drive shaft 63 at regular intervals along a direction Q perpendicular to a traveling direction P of the machine body B, and a seeding groove forming auxiliary device Fis mounted at one side or both sides of the grooving rings W disposed in a recess H formed by a pair of rear wheels BW of the tractor T; the device Fcomprises a ridging plate 1 for filling the recess H using soil S obtained by excavating the soil at one end in the width direction of the recess H, and a soil forming plate 2 continuously provided behind the ridging plate 1; and a seeding groove Vk is formed on a portion of the soil S by making a state of momentarily confining the soil S between a regulation flange ring body 86 of the grooving ring W and a grooving projecting plate part 90.【課題】降雨後においては、1日でも早く乾田直播作業を行える直播機の提供である。【解決手段】トラクタTにより牽引される機体Bに作溝装置Eが装着され、当該作溝装置Eは、機体Bの進行方向Pと直交する方向Qに沿って一定間隔をおいて多数の作溝輪Wが駆動軸63に取付けられ、前記トラクタTの一対の後輪BWにより形成される凹部Hに配置される作溝輪Wの一側方又は両側方に播種溝形成補助装置F1 が装着され、当該装置F1 は、前記凹部Hの幅方向の一端部の土壌を掘削した土Sにより前記凹部Hを埋める土寄せ板1と、当該土寄せ板1の後方に連続して設けられた土成形板2とから成り、前記土Sを、前記作溝輪Wの規制鍔リング体86及び作溝突板部90との間に瞬間的に閉じ込めた状態にすることで、当該土Sの部分に播種溝Vkを形成する。【選択図】 図11
