Ohio State University Extension shares what researchers have learned from several wide-row wheat trials and tips for seeding wheat in 15-inch spacings.
If using a seeding rate of pounds per acre, larger kernels may result in fewer seeds planted per acre and possibly thinner stands, while smaller kernels increases the chances for plant-to-plant competition.
Variety, seeding depth and rate, and fall nitrogen applications are important components for establishing a winter wheat crop this fall, says University of Kentucky Extension.
Most of Kansas wheat has been planted by this time of the year. However, some growers may have delayed planting for different reasons, including harvesting a summer crop during late October, or waiting for significant precipitation to occur.
With weather delays and soybeans maturing late this year, many growers weren't able to seed winter wheat at the optimum time. Here are some tips for hitting higher yields with late-seeded wheat.
Seed size can have an impact in the final number of seeds actually planted per acre, as larger kernels may result in thinner stands, while smaller kernels may have above-optimal stand establishment.
As producers begin to make preparations for fall seeding of winter wheat, one of the decisions to be made is how much seed to plant per acre, and those who may still be planting by pounds or bushels per acre may want to consider a different approach, says a manager from CropQuest.
