Said sweepers (24) comprise rigid formations attached at their forward facing ends to the frame of a planter and extend rearwards, on either side of and in close proximity to the multi-tined spider wheels (20) such that, when in motion, any accumulated debris is swept from the tines of the spider wheels. Said seed dispensing apparatus (26) being a chute having flexibly deformable skirts (34) located to be in soil contact.
