Testing Seed Only
Way to Insure Quality
Looking at a handful of seed
is a poor way to judge whether
it is good or bad. No one can
accurately judge the number of
weed seeds or the percentage of
germination just by looking at and
using a sample. Field-run seed is
usually a long gamble.
The only reliable seed is tagged
seed—that is, seed which meets
requirements of the state law. But
it is essential also that the farmer
know what the information on the
tag means. The seed law.sets mini
mum requirements, and requires
that the tag carry certain infor
mation, but the buyer still must
evaluate the figures on the tag.
A good index to value is to
multiply the percentage of purity
by the percentage of germination.
Thus, seed with a germination of
'JO per cent and a purity of 98 has
88 per cent live, pure seed, while
a lot showing 80 per cent germina
tion and 95 per cent purity has on-
ly 76 pounds per hundred of live |
pure seed.
It is also important to notice
what the impurities are. Two lots
with the same percentage of pur-
ity may contain different amounts
I of weed seeds and inert matter,!
for example. Weed seeds are the I
most undesirable element; inert
matter, such as dirt or chaff, is not
particularly serious.
Seed tags must show the per
centage of all weed seeds, name
and approximate number of sec-
ondary noxious weed seeds, per-
centage of other crop seeds and
inert matter, germination, per-
centage of hard seed, and dyte of
germination test. State law pro
hibits primary noxious weeds (ser
ious perennials), and establishes
tolerances for secondary noxious
weeds (mostly troublesome an
nuals). So as a word of caution—
read the tag and you may not be so
surprised when the crop comes up.
