Direct-sowing seed drill with a basic frame (1), to which coulter-holding beams (9) with seed coulters (13) arranged movably in the vertical plane thereon are fastened and which is supported on the ground via running wheels (3). In order to design a direct-sowing seed drill having large dimensions in a simple way so as to be optimum for transport purposes, provision is made for arranging the coulter-holding beams (9) so as to extend obliquely in the direction of travel, and for the coulter-holding beams (9) each to consist of at least two parts (10, 11), connected releasably to one another (Fig. 1). <IMAGE>
