Canola calculator can help determine seeding rate
Proper seeder calibration is an essential practice for achieving the stand you’re looking for. Here are four steps for better calibration. First, use the canola calculator to make sure your seed drill calibration matches your target stand, seed size, and expected emergence percentage. Watch the video above to get the most value from CanolaCalculator.ca at seeding. Second, check the manual for the seeder and make sure the process of calibrating your equipment is well-understood. Third, while pausing to check on seeding depth, look in the seed tank to ensure that you are going through seed at a rate that matches your expectations. Finally — like all agricultural operations — be sure you’re well-rested and aware in order to minimize human error.
