Why is the seed population off (too high, too low, or no seed) on my GREAT PLAINS Farm Equipment?
- YybowmanAug 19, 2025
Several factors can cause an incorrect seed population. Check the seed rate charts in the Material Rate manual to ensure you're using the correct seed rate. Reduce field speed to recommended values if it's excessive. Make sure the tires are the correct sizes and inflated to the correct psi. Adjust the fan speed to the recommended rpm. Also, verify the range and transmission sprockets, inspect main shaft sprockets, and refer to the seed rate charts to confirm the correct seed disk. If the seed treatment is sticky, add seed lubricant. Finally, perform a speed calibration if the speed sensor constant is incorrect.
