Set-up instructions
Correct seed rate
Auxiliary table for corn
Graphite powder use
Example: When planting 60,000 corn seeds with a spacing of 90 cm, an average of
54 seeds per 10 linear meters must drop on every row unit.
Consider that the amount of plants in the harvest is always smaller than the number
of seeds distributed in the planting operation, due to the following factors: germination
rate, plagues, diseases and others.
Therefore, we recommend the distribution of some more seeds related to the plants/
hectare that is wanted to obtain on the crop.
The following table shows the number of corn seeds that must drop in 10 meters on
every row unit, considering different spacings and different amount of seeds per hectare.

70,000 53 56 59 63 66
The graphite powder must be mixed to the seeds that are already treated and dry
to make its flow and unloading easier, noticeably improving the distribution. The use of
graphite reduce the damage rate on the seeds and increase the lifetime of the metering
systems.
