seed testing

Seed testing involves examining seeds to determine their quality, health, and viability before planting. It helps identify factors like germination rate (how many seeds will sprout), purity (absence of weeds or other species), and contaminants such as diseases or pests. By conducting tests in a lab, growers can ensure they select high-quality seeds that will grow into healthy plants, optimize yields, and reduce losses. This process is essential for agriculture, landscaping, and forestry to maintain productivity, plant health, and crop safety.
