seed coatings

Seed coatings are protective layers applied to the surface of seeds to enhance their performance. These coatings can contain nutrients, disease preventatives, or adhesives to improve germination, protect against pests, and support early growth. By adding a durable, often color-coded, layer, seed coatings make handling easier and ensure that seeds are planted at the right depth. They can also provide a controlled release of nutrients to support young seedlings. Overall, seed coatings improve planting efficiency, increase seed survival rates, and promote healthier crop development.
