Frequently asked questions
Seed rate is the quantity of seed needed to sow a unit of land: usually expressed in kilograms per acre. It depends on the crop, variety, spacing and sowing method.
Total seed = seed rate (kg/acre) × your land area (acres). The cost is the total seed multiplied by the price per kilogram.
Hybrids need far less seed than open-pollinated varieties, and broadcasting needs more than line sowing or transplanting. Always check your seed packet and local recommendation.
