The reason that sunflower seeds are usually sold by weight and not by count is because sunflower seeds do not have a uniform individual weight. One can only give a rough approximation. For example, assuming a 1 gram packet of American Giant sunflower seeds contains between 12 and 13 seeds on average, then a 10 kilogram packet would have between 120000 and 130000 seeds. Switching to a variety of sunflower seeds with smaller seeds, such as Velvet queen, you might get 30 to 35 seeds in a packet, thus averaging 300000 to 350000 seeds.
