Determines the germination potential of a seed lot to produce normal and vigorous plants under favorable production conditions.
The weight of one thousand seeds is determined and therefore allows to obtain the number of seeds per kilo to calculate sowing density.
Determines the moisture content of the seed lot. Drying oven is used if greater accuracy is required in the analysis or fast moisture determiners if the data is needed urgently.
Analysis that determines the following fractions in a sample: percentage of pure seed, percentage of inert matter and percentage of foreign seeds (seeds of weeds or other species).
Method of preserving plant material by dehydration, which preserves the molecular structure of the tissue.
