Mixtures should be conputed on a percentage basis. <br />Seeding rates are fur drilled seedings - if seed is broadcast, the rate should be doubled. Rates are based <br />an pure live seed basis - NOT BULK. To conpute bulk seed needed, use the formula: <br />(% of species in mix) x YtP1S needed/Ac x (Acres) = Bulk seed reeded <br />% Purity x % gene <br />(4) Palatability of the plants should be considered. Shen seeding for wildlife or livestock, the more palatable <br />species should be used. When seeding along roads or areas which are extremely sensitive to grazing use, the <br />less palatable species should be selected. Palatability is only relative. It will change with the kinds of <br />animals usirg it, other vegetation in the area, as well as the time of year. <br />cont. next Inge.
