To provide a pushing rod for a hopper used for filling a packaging bag with fillers in the hopper.

In the pushing rod 20 inserted in and pulled out from a reverse truncated cone-shaped hopper by a lifting mechanism to push out fillers having bad fluidity such as tea leaves, pins 23a and 23b of at least two steps are attached to a tip of a vertical rod 22 to be protruded in horizontal directions by mutually changing the angles thereof by 90°. The vertical rod 22 and the pins 23a and 23b are made of hollow tubes to form a structure for blowing compressed air.
