Comment:
{{PL: Planted the soybeans in the No-till plots of the Rotation Study. The soil is very hard due to the dry conditions and proper planting depth was not achieved. Most seed was covered however. Because of the conditions the seeding rate was increased slightly compared to the other soybean plots in this study. Planted about 8 beans/foot (gear settings 14/26) of the Great Lakes Hybrid GL 2634. This completes planting of all plots in the Rotation Study. }} The row width was not specified. If it was 30" rows, 8 beans/foot would be 139,392 seeds/acre, on 20" rows it would be 209,100 seeds/acre. Assuming 30" rows.
