1 to 5 is below average, 6 is average, 7 is above average, 10 is exceptional. White mold scores from RGCQ testing and field observations: 10 is great, 7 is average, 1 is poor. Phytophthora scores are from OSACC
PRR tests: 10 is great, 7 is average, 1 is poor. Plant size is affected by many factors including maturity, tillage system and soil type. Coarser soils tend to produce taller plants while clay soils tend to reduce height.
No-till and reduced tillage tend to reduce plant size. Full-season varieties for an area tend to be taller on average. Early-season varieties for an area tend to be shorter.

1 to 5 is below average, 6 is average, 7 is above average, 10 is exceptional. White mold scores from RGCQ testing and field observations: 10 is great, 7 is average, 1 is poor. Phytophthora scores are from OSACC
PRR tests: 10 is great, 7 is average, 1 is poor. Plant size is affected by many factors including maturity, tillage system and soil type. Coarser soils tend to produce taller plants while clay soils tend to reduce height.
No-till and reduced tillage tend to reduce plant size. Full-season varieties for an area tend to be taller on average. Early-season varieties for an area tend to be shorter.

   This chart can be used to determine how many seeds are required, to verify seed drop during planting or to estimate plant population.
          Final plant stands are generally 75-95% of seeding rate population depending on seed quality, soil type, planting depth,
              management practices and planter type. Emergence can be significantly reduced under poor conditions due to
                                  low temperature, poor seed soil contact, lack of soil moisture or crusting.
