“Direct seeding trees and shrubs can cost as little as 10 percent of the cost of planting nursery-grown seedlings!  Interested?  Then some of the questions you might ask are: Where can I use direct seeding?  I’ve always planted seedlings; aren’t they more reliable?  Can I direct seed with my own farm equipment?  What is the most reliable method of direct seeding?  When should I seed?  What should I do about the weeds?  Should I rip the soil first?  Which species will be successful?  Should I treat the seed?  Which insects will be a problem?  These questions and many more are answered in this manual.”
