To get the spring wheat crop off to a good start, attention should be given to seed depth and seeding rates. Across eastern North Dakota and northwest Minnesota, the general recommendation is 1.4 million pure live seed calculated for germination. “However, you could dial it 200,000 up or 200,000 seeds down depending on the planting date and variety,” said Grant Mehring, technical product manager, WestBred Wheat.
