Sentence examples for seed rate from inspiring English sources

Barley yield was reduced by mixed cropping only when the seed rate of faba bean exceeded 50 kg ha−1 or 25% of the sole seed rate.

Cultural practices were traditional (conventional till, recommended seed rate, broadcast N fertilization, and reduced stubble height) and ecological (no-till, increased seed rate, banded N fertilization, and increased stubble height).

Seed rate was included as an additional factor in the first season, and cultivar in the second.

The relationship between these factors and the performance parameters viz., seed rate, seed spacing and percent seed damage can be established using regression analysis.

The treatments were sole barley (125 kg ha−1), sole faba bean (200 kg ha−1) and an additive series of 12.5, 25, 37.5, 50 and 62.5% of the sole seed rate of faba bean mixed with full barley seed rate.

Conversely, high-yielding zones may justify more inputs, notably higher fertilizer and possibly seed rates.

With such poor seed, farmers have to use very high seed rates to obtain adequate plant populations.
