Verb: to scatter over land, earth, etc., such as seed for growth; to implant, introduce, or promulgate; seek to propagate or extend; disseminate

Example: The old expression, 'sowing one's wild oats', refers to the idea of a person (usually a man) doing wild and fooling things in their youth, often sexual in nature, prior to settling down to an adult, responsible existence.

Example: The union representatives lost the trust of the membership by sowing wild rumours and misinformation, thereby causing a great deal of dissension and distrust.
