PARTICULATE FEEDER SYSTEM ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An agricultural particulate feeder controls the rate of particulate distribution to a surface being worked. The particulate feeder comprises a hopper with a sliding door over a discharge outlet at a lower end of the hopper. A frame supports the particulate feeder and has an elongated tube extending longitudinally under the discharge outlet of the hopper, the tube forming an element of the frame. A particulate metering cylinder is positioned between the outlet and door of the hopper and a particulate inlet in the elongated tube and is rotatably mounted on a drive shaft. A housing encases the cylinder and forms an enclosure connecting the hopper outlet and the tube inlet. One side of the housing is removable to allow lateral access to the metering cylinder inside the housing. In addition, longitudinal removal of the drive shaft permits lateral removal of the metering cylinder from the housing. The frame is movably supported on the ground and has a mechanism to rotate the particulate metering cylinder and a fan to force air through the elongated tube to provide a fluid medium for transporting particulate away from the hopper.
