[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 7725776, member: 63856"] Depends on the mix and purpose, but between 800 and 1200 grams per hectare is what we usually mix for the more diverse mixes. So that's ½kg per acre at the top end. You'd maybe go higher with more open upright grasses being a large component of a seed mix, eg for dairy use - dairies are hard on pastures and plant loss becomes a factor with crown trampling in wet conditions, or for areas with genuine summer dry conditions that inhibit grass growth [/QUOTE]
