IMPORTANT:
Acid delinted cotton seeds vary in size from about 9000 to 12 000 seeds/kg (4100 to 5400 seeds per lb). Consequently, planting rates can vary widely.
The above chart was developed using uniform cotton seed sized to 10 000 seeds/kg (4500 seeds per lb.). Use the chart as a guide for initial planter settings only.
|
Large cotton seed will generally result in lower rates than those in the chart. Small cotton seed will give somewhat higher rates than those in the chart.
Actual rates MUST be checked in the field at planting speed. See CHECKING SEED POPULATION section.
