Subject: RE: seeding rates for oats


NW Washington
Here is the word form Wikipedia.

Oat Seeding rates
Typically about 125 to 175 kg/hectare (between 2.75 and 3.25 bushels per acre) are sown, either broadcast, drilled, or planted using an air seeder. Lower rates are used when underseeding with a legume. Somewhat higher rates can be used on the best soils, or where there are problems with weeds. Excessive sowing rates will lead to problems with lodging and may reduce yields.

ND state talks about a million seeds per acre which comes out to 23 seeds per square foot.
