How to calculate seedling survival rate

Seedling survival rate measures what percentage of planted seedlings survive to an established stage — a key metric in forestry, agriculture, and restoration projects.

How the calculation works

Survival rate = (Surviving seedlings ÷ Seedlings planted) × 100.

Example

850 surviving out of 1,000 planted: (850÷1,000)×100 = 85%.

Pro Tips for Seedling Survival Rate

  1. Track survival rate at consistent time intervals (like 1 year post-planting) for meaningful comparison across planting projects.
  2. Survival rate varies significantly by species, site conditions, and planting season — compare only within similar contexts.

Common Seedling Survival Rate Mistakes to Avoid

  • Comparing survival rates measured at different time points post-planting (like 3 months vs. 1 year) as if they represent the same milestone.
