Seeding Rate
The ideal plant population for winter wheat is 1.3 to 1.5 million plants/acre. Assuming a typical 85% emergence rate, this requires a seeding rate between 1.5 and 1.7 million seeds/acre (see Table 1 to convert to seeds per foot of row). Use the number of seeds per pound noted on the seed bag to convert the desired seeding rate from seeds/acre to lb/acre. For example, if the bag indicates 10,000 seeds/lb and my target seeding rate is 1.5 million seeds/acre, then I would need 150 lb of that seed to plant one acre. Use the lower rates in Area 3 (lower winterkill risk) and the higher rates in Areas 1 and 2. Increase these rates when:
Planting under poor conditions such as a cloddy seedbed.
Planting late: when planting more than 2 weeks past the fly-free date, increase the seeding rate by 10% for each week delayed past that date
Under no-till: if planting into heavy residue, increase the seeding rate by about 15% to compensate for seed to soil contact issues
