8 or 9 to the row foot to be able to safely lift and break crusts. In 38" rows that would be 110,000 to 125,000 round numbers. Iowa tradition in 30 inch rows was 165,000 before the university research showed lower populations didn't hurt yield significantly and increased profits by the savings in seed purchased. In the wide rows here a bushy bean would be beneficial to canopy over the rows to retard weeds.
