Swaminathan Formula
Swaminathan's Formula is a method used in agriculture to estimate the average size of a harvest-sized grain or seed, such as rice or wheat. It predicts the expected weight of an individual seed by analyzing the weight and number of seeds in a known sample. Essentially, it helps farmers and researchers determine the typical seed size in a crop, which can inform quality assessment and marketing. The formula considers the total weight of a sample and the total number of seeds to calculate an average seed weight, aiding in predicting yield and quality.
