Seed Science and Technology

Seed Science and Technology is the field that studies the development, production, and quality of seeds used in agriculture. It involves understanding how seeds grow, how to improve their vigor and yield, and ensuring they are healthy and true to type. This discipline combines biology, genetics, and technology to enhance seed quality through processes like breeding, treatment, and storage. Its goal is to provide farmers with reliable, high-performing seeds that maximize crop production, support biodiversity, and promote sustainable farming practices.
