To use this chart: Find your actual seed size on the tag and use the
above chart to determine planting rate. If you find a seed size not listed, use the
following formula. Desired population divided by seed size = rate per acre. Example:
180,000/2875 = 62.6 lbs/acre. |
| (One
acre = 43,560 sq. feet) |
