PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent foreign matters from being caught between a planting claw and a drum when rotating and raising the planting claw. SOLUTION: The rotary planting device includes a planting claw 7 attached to a drum 6 via an attaching shaft 19, and configured to turn according to the rotation of the drum 6. The planting claw 7 is configured to plant a pot seedling P into the farm field with almost vertical posture on a projecting state Sa extending outside in the almost radial direction of the drum 6 when the attaching shaft 19 is positioned almost downward to a driving shaft 16 of the drum 6, and, thereafter, to gradually turn in an opposite rotation direction of the drum 6 till the attaching shaft 19 is positioned at almost rear side to the driving shaft 16 of the drum 6 so as to rise while keeping the almost vertical posture to be non-projecting state Sb. The planting claw 7 is equipped with a catch preventing piece 11 extending to the drum surface in the projecting state Sa on the opposite rotation direction side of the drum 6 and configured so that the catch preventing piece 11 reciprocates along the drum surface.
