A new tolerance evaluation procedure for three component turfgrass seed mixtures [Kentucky bluegrass, Poa pratensis, creeping red fescue, Festuca rubra, and perennial ryegrass Lolium perenne]

Three mathematical formulas are used to determine whether a three-component turfgrass seed mixture is within the tolerances set forth in the "Tolerance Section" of the Rules for Testing Seeds. The calculations are not affected by changes in other crop seed, weed seed, or inert matter perce...

Description
Summary:Three mathematical formulas are used to determine whether a three-component turfgrass seed mixture is within the tolerances set forth in the "Tolerance Section" of the Rules for Testing Seeds. The calculations are not affected by changes in other crop seed, weed seed, or inert matter percentages. This procedure is accurate and is easily programmed on microcomputers or programmable calculators.
