- Seed in agriculture is one of the most important factors and affects yield greatly. Seed multiplication is a difficult and expensive procedure and is subsidized. In this study, results of seeding rate experiments in Sakarya and Pamukova locations were analyzed, and optimum seeding rates for both locations were recommended. The optimum seeding rate was 16.5 kg/da and 20.5 kg/da for Sakarya and Pamukova, respectively. Seeding rate is a function of prices. Therefore, it changes with respect to the prices. Recommendation in seeding rate should be made with considering of this fact. Keywords : Seed; seed rate; econometric analyses
