Density Conversion Chart
The fertilizer meter rate charts are based on fertilizer with a density of 1.04 kilograms per litre (65 pounds per cubic foot).
If you are applying fertilizer of a different density, use the following table to convert the application rate.
Example: Your fertilizer has a density of 0.72 kilograms per litre, and you want to apply 100 kilograms per hectare. Multiply
desired application rate by the conversion factor.
100 x 1.45 = 145
Adjust drill to setting closest to 145 kilograms per hectare.
Density, kg/l (lb/ft 3 ) 0.72 (45.0) 0.80 (50.0) 0.88 (55.0) 0.96 (60.0) 1.04 (65.0) 1.12 (70.0) 0.87 (75.0) 0.81 (80.0)
