SEED AGRICULTURAL VALUE

%AV

Agricultural value (AV) is a parameter that indicates seed quality. It gives the percentage of pure and viable seeds in a sample.

AV Formula:

% AV = (% Pure x % Germination) ÷ 100

Factor for Brachiaria spp. and Panicum maximum:

From the AV value and the Factor, one can calculate the amount of seeds/ha to be used:

Seeds per Hectare Formula:

Factor ÷ AV = kg seeds / ha
