Description
Seeds are the foundation of agriculture, directly impacting crop yield and quality. Ensuring seed health, purity, and viability is essential for sustainable farming. This is where seed analysis and seed germination testing play a crucial role. These scientific processes assess the quality, purity, and ability of seeds to sprout into healthy plants, helping farmers make informed decisions for better agricultural productivity. What is Seed Analysis? Seed analysis is a comprehensive testing method that evaluates the physical and genetic characteristics of seeds. It involves: ✅ Seed Purity Testing: Determines the presence of unwanted materials like weed seeds, inert matter, or other crop seeds. ✅ Seed Viability Testing: Measures the potential of seeds to germinate and grow into healthy plants. ✅ Seed Moisture Content Testing: Ensures seeds have the right moisture level for storage and planting. ✅ Seed Health Testing: Detects any fungal, bacterial, or viral infections that may affect germination and crop yield.
