Line 2a: Enter your package size (e.g., the number of seeds per bag)........................................................... Line 3a: Enter your bag price (e.g., $50)...................................................................................................... Line 4a: Divide line 1a by line 2a (e.g., 160,000 ÷ 140,000 = 1.14). This is your rate increase.................. Line 5a: Multiply line 3a and line 4a (e.g., $50 x 1.14 = $57.00). This is your 2013 seed cost per acre..................................................................................................................

Your Pioneer 2012 Price:Line 1b: Enter your seeding rate per acre (e.g., 160,000)............................................................................
