Effects of Seed Treatment Techniques on Buck Wheat (Fagopyrum esculentum L.) Seed Quality and Seed Health during Storage | Chapter 8 | Emerging Issues in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 3

 This division aims to investigate the Effects of Seed situation techniques on Buckwheat Seed Quality and Seed Health during depository. Buck wheat is a grain-free pseudocereal with high organic value that has the potential expected used as a working food. Due to its healing, dietary, and pertaining to food benefits, buckwheat holds a unique place among farmable crops. The present investigation was completed activity at the Laboratory of Seed science and Technology in the Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Naini Agricultural University, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Science, Prayagraj (U.P.). Buckwheat keeps a special place amongst farmable crops due to allure nutritional, dietetic and therapeutic possessions.  The five genotypes used in the experiment are IC-18040(G1), IC-18289(G2),IC-18757(G3), IC- 18881(G4), IC-18889(G5). Seeds were doctored with neem lubricate of 5 ml/kg (T1) and carbendazim at 2g/kg (T2) and seeds alone accompanying control (untreated T0) and full in a cloth bag and stored for 9 months under atmosphere conditions. The source quality limits like germination percentage, root distance, shoot time, seedling length, small tree fresh pressure, seedling dry pressure, seedling vigour index I, seedling vigour index II beginning viability and children health test were determined. The effect amply illustrated that  seeds of IC-18289(G2) treated accompanying neem oil were raise to produce high pregnancy percent (80%), root length (10.19 cm), dash length (8.29 cm), small tree length (18.48 cm), fresh burden (0.59 g), dry weight (0.37 g), Vigour index I (1478.40), Vigour index –II (2.96) being (58) and seed contamination (least seed contaminated- 2.30) compared to sources treated with carbendazim and control (not cooked).
