Seed Quality Standards

Seed Quality Standards refer to established criteria that ensure seeds are effective for planting and growing healthy crops. These standards assess factors such as germination rates, purity (the percentage of desired seeds versus contaminants), and physical integrity (absence of damage or disease). By adhering to these standards, farmers can choose high-quality seeds that are more likely to produce strong, reliable harvests. This ultimately supports agricultural productivity, food security, and economic stability within farming communities.
