I'm curious what the definition of "seed heavy" means. Location is a factor I'm sure. 'Here', SW Ontario, we see recommendations of 110 to 125 lbs per acre for seeding. Even 90# of nitrogen calls for growth regulator to keep the crop standing for us. But we only see about 150 bushels per acre of oats with this program. Looks like we may be able to push this crop more yet. I agree with the 'combine slow' statement. It is easy to lose grain in the tangled wet straw and chaff
