It can be defined as the state or a condition in which seeds are prevented from germinating even under the favorable environmental conditions

Type of seeds that could be kept for longer periods compared with others under the same environmental conditions, provided they are properly dried and stored.

Which of the following is NOT an example of Orthodox seed?

What is the importance of Seed Testing?

Type of germination test that uses a piece of cloth asa big handkerchief. The seeds are placed in 10 rows with at least 10 seeds per row.

It is a type of germination test that uses 100 seeds will that sown in rows in a seedbox that contains a sterile medium composed of sand, compost, and ordinary garden soil (1:1:1 ratio).

It is the condition of seeds that is incapable of germination even if conditions suitable for seedling growth are supplied. This inability to germinate may be due in certain species to the embryo being immature at the time of dispersal.

This type of seed dormancy occurs when the seed has imbibed water but has been placed under extremely unfavorable conditions for germination. Finally, the seed fails to germinate even under more favorable conditions.

It is any treatment that removes the seed coat or alters it, making it more permeable to water. Mechanically and carefully cracking or breaking the seed with a hammer or cracking the seeds between jaws of a vise, rubbing with sandpaper, scratching, soaking with water or acids.

The easiest and cheapest way of producing seedlings is in a selected area in the ground. 

Height requirement of net house

The cheapest form of seedling protection

Uniform growth can be obtained in raising the seedlings in a seedling tray

Tomato and radish are used for indirect sowing.

Carrot and cowpea are used for direct sowing.

It is a structure that provides a reliable enclosure within which an environment favorable to plant growth can be attained

A type of greenhouse consists of one or two layers of clear plastic sheathing stretched over a light-weight frame that be made of plastic or metal pipe and even wood.

It is composed of organic waste (animal excreta in the form of slurries and farmyard manures, spent mushroom compost, soiled water, and silage effluent) including animal, plant, and natural waste.

It means livestock manure, unconsumed feed and associated bedding materials, and animal carcasses from normal mortalities of livestock on a farm.

It is the proper management of waste from agricultural operations can contribute in a significant way to farm operations

It is an extreme thermal process using plasma that converts organic matter into syngas (synthesis gas) which is primarily made up of hydrogen and carbon monoxide.

It is the natural process of recycling organic matter, such as leaves and food scraps, into a valuable fertilizer that can enrich soil and plants.

The agricultural waste is heated up to a temperature of 400-600°C in the absence of oxygen to vaporize a portion of the material, leaving a char behind. This is considered to be a higher technology procedure for the utilization of agricultural wastes.

Crop residues have high fiber content and are low in protein, starch, and fat. The traditional method of increasing livestock production by supplementing forage and pasture with grains and protein concentrate may not meet future meat protein needs.
