Comment:
Planted Pioneer 25R37 Soft Red Winter Wheat into LTER main site treatment 6, all reps. Planted reps 5, 3, 4, and 2 on October 25, 2007. Planted reps 1 and 6 on October 26, 2007. Planted with JD 7420a tractor and JD 750 no-till drill. Drill setting: 44. The drill meter (counter) indicated that 15.5 acres were planted. Sixty-one 50 pound bags were used (3,050 lbs). When finished 80 pounds of seed was removed from the drill. Seeding rate: 3050 pounds of seed used/15.5 acres = 197 lbs seeds/A, each pound of seed contained 10,000 seeds, therefore 197 lbs/A x 10,000 seeds/lbs = 1,967,742 seeds/A.
