Comment:
Planted Pioneer 25R47 Soft Red Winter Wheat into LTER Main Site treatment T2 replications 4, 5 and 6. Planted with JD 7420(a) tractor and JD 750 no-till drill. Drill setting 41 and 3 depth setting. Seeding rate was calculated as 168 lbs/A compared to the calibration which was estimated at 174 lbs/A. Each pound of seed contained 11,500 seeds, therefore 168 lbs/A x 11,500 seeds/lbs = 1,932,000 seeds/A. Each plot was 1 hectare (2.47 acre). Replications 5 and 6 were planted using the marker arm on the drill; replication 4 was planted without using the marker arm. Treated seed was used and had been treated with Difenoconazole and Mefenoxam.
