Abstract/Contents: | States that "seeding machines are the mechanical link that ensures proper distribution and placement of seed in the soil." Emphasizes that "seeding at the correct time of year and with adequate moisture is important." Details the four common types of mechanical seeders, including broadcast spreaders, hydroseeding, slit seeders, and seed drills. States that "any mechanism that distributes seed evenly and provides adequate soil placement is considered satisfactory." Concludes that "seed, equipment, mulch and fertilizer suppliers are good resources for information on calibration and application rates." |
