Guide for Seed Tag Placement
This guide has been developed to provide information on the
relative importance of various characteristics listed on a seed
tag. The relative weights assigned will vary somewhat from crop
to crop and hence they provide only a general guide. Other factors
will often have to be used to differentiate betweed seed lots.
