Seed Rate Charts

How to Read a Chart

Consult the chart for your crop, row spacing, disk cell
count, and population. Some charts have two pages.

1.

Find the charts for your crop.

2.

If there are separate charts based on row spacing,
find the charts for that spacing.

3.

If there are separate charts by population range, find
the chart that cover the rate or seed spacing you
intend.

Note: If planting with every other row shut off, the actual

population is half the Twin Row chart rate.

4.

Check what disk cell count, and which disk part
numbers are required for/covered by that chart.

5.

Note that Ezee Glide Plus seed lubricant is required.

Skip/Double/Blockage Risk:
Ezee Glide Plus seed lubricant is required for all operations

with Air-Pro

®

meters. See “Seed Lubricants” on page 78 for

seed lubricant information.

6.

Find the desired seed population range (or seed
spacing).

7.

Note the maximum ground speed for that population.
This is based on the maximum disk rpm

a

for that disk

and crop.

8.

The Range sprockets are at the top left of the
single-spacing charts, and at the top of the columns
for charts covering multiple row spacings.

9.

The Transmission sprockets are in the table rows,
found to the left of the Population.

10. Note the suggested initial setting for the seed inlet

shutter.

a. The rpm information is for hydraulic drive planters. This information is not required for Air-Pro

®

ground drive planter operations.
