The invention relates to an air-assisted rice broadcast sower, which comprises a seeding system, an air conveying system and a seed case, wherein the seeding system comprises an outer groove wheel, a sleeve, an outer groove wheel shaft, a stirring shaft, a big gear wheel, a small gear wheel, a small baffle, a seed collector and a seeding pipe; the diameter of the outer groove wheel is 100mm; outer groove wheel grooves are uniformly arranged in the surface of the outer groove wheel along the axial direction; the cross section of each outer groove wheel groove is in a circular arc shape with the circular arc radius being 6.5mm; the air conveying system comprises a fan and an air conveying pipe. According to the air-assisted rice broadcast sower, the diameter of the outer groove wheel is large, and the volume of each outer groove wheel groove is large, so that large-width rice seed sowing can be met; a pleated pipe is adopted in the middle of the air conveying pipe, so that the functions of pressurization and uniform seed mixing can be realized; a nozzle adopts a flat-shaped sector structure with a tapered uniform cross section area, so that the sowing width of the seeds can be increased, and the seeds can be sowed uniformly; not only is the problem of high percent of damaged seed of the traditional outer groove wheel solved, but also the problems that the air-assisted seeding machine is heavy in weight, high in cost and the like are solved, and the operation efficiency is improved.
