5. Seed
A seed is an embryonic
plant enclosed in a
protective outer
covering with small
quantity of food
storage.

6. Seed Testing
Seed testing is determining the
standards of a seed, physical
purity, moisture, germination
and thereby enabling the
farming community to get quality
seeds.

7. A-Germination Test :
B-Viability test: A test for viability that involves
three steps:
1.preconditioning (imbibition)
2. preparation and staining
3. evaluation (examining the seed for a color
change in the embryo).
Types of tests
C-Purity test:
D-Weed Test:

8. Equipment Required for Seed
Testing Laboratory
