How to Calculate Wheat Seeding Rate

Wheat seeding rate is usually expressed in pounds of seed per acre.

Divide the target plant population by the number of seeds per pound.

Adjust rates based on seed size, germination, and field conditions.

What is a typical wheat seeding rate?

Most wheat seeding rates range from 60 to 120 pounds per acre.

Why do seeds per pound vary?

Seed size varies by variety and growing conditions.

Should germination be considered?

Does row spacing affect seeding rate?
