% of inert matter

[Smelly buck]

On a hulled and coated seed is 51% inert matter expectable. I thought the coating should only be around 18-16%
Does it have something to do with it being hulled? The seed type is Joint Vetch, for a southern food plot.
I did call the company about it from and they said 51% is normal for the coating but that doesn't seem right to me.

Seems a little high on the inert matter, I guess what I've ususally seen is 30-40%.

Is inert matter a way of making more money (a filler) or is it usually a legit component?

They make twice the profit when you only get half the weight in seed.
