Comment:
Planted LTER main site treatment T4 replications 1, 2, 4, and 5 with Pioneer 25R47 Soft Red Winter Wheat, untreated seed. Planted with JD 5425 tractor and JD 450 conventional drill. Depth was set to approximately 1/2” to 3/4”. Seeding rate was calculated as 181 lbs/A compared to the calibration which was estimated at 178 lbs/A. Each pound of seed contained 11,000 seeds, therefore 178 lbs/A x 11,000 seeds/lbs = 1,958,000 seeds/A.
