The side walls at the rear end of the seed-planter runner are substantially spread apart, and a diverter means distributes the seed laterally to achieve a substantially spread seed-planting pattern and thus more seed per lineal distance of the seed-planting effort. Runner-planter type of seed planters, such as for commercial planting of rows of beans, are known agricultural implements. The planters, often called runners or shoes, are mounted in a gang or group, several abreast, for being pulled or dragged by an associated vehicle; and as they are pulled forwardly, the front part of the planter shoes divides the earth to leave a narrow furrow, and the rear portion of the shoes provides a place at which the beans or other seed particles are fed into the furrow from a seed hopper carried by the vehicle. It is to such type of seed planters that the present invention relates.
