The planter unit includes a parallelogram frame having two pairs of opposed 5 frame members for mounting to a toolbar. It also includes a resilient member attached to the parallelogram frame for holding the frame members of the parallelogram frame in a parallelogram shape while permitting the shape of the parallelogram to alter in response to an external force. Yet further the planter unit includes a gauge wheel operatively associated with the 10 parallelogram frame for engaging the soil surface and travelling over the soil surface in use, and a seeding arrangement pivotably mounted to the parallelogram frame at a pivot location which includes a seed dispenser that in an operative position is spaced below the pivot location. The unit also includes a biasing arrangement for biasing the seeding arrangement to an 15 operative position whereby movement of the seeding arrangement is independent of movement of the parallelogram frame and can move in response to an external force on the seeding arrangement that overcomes the bias of the biasing arrangement. 20 FIG 5 FOR PUBLICATION5/10 10 22 16 14 012 40 3 362 o o0 70 o 84 18 82 40 72-L 24 80 150 * o34 36
