Nebraska growers use seeding rates for winter wheat that vary from 30 to 180 pounds per acre. A change in winter wheat seeding recommendations should be made from using pounds per acre to seeds per acre. Using seeding rates that are too low can lead to excessive tillering and also may delay maturity, increase weed competition and fail to make use of the plant's full yield potential. Using rates that are too high may increase costs, result in increased lodging and possibly reduce yields.
