Abstract:

The accelerating global population growth, as highlighted by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (UNFAO), intensifies the demand for sustainable food production, particularly in land-constrained regions like India. Despite the historical gains of the Green Revolution, modern Indian agriculture grapples with persistent challenges such as soil degradation, plant diseases, and diminishing crop yields—plant diseases alone account for nearly 40% of losses. In this context, Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents a transformative opportunity to address these issues through precision,

Abstract:

While agricultural crops remain at the forefront of addressing global food demands and malnutrition, depleting resources, fluctuating climatic conditions, and the adverse impact of biotic/abiotic stresses define a major challenge. Plant seeds comprise an important starting material for plant propagation, in vitro generation, and conservation, and are crucial factors in determining the quality and yield of the desired crops. The expanding horizon of precision agriculture suggests that high-quality seeds could promote crop productivity up to 15–20 percent, attributed to emerging biotechnological

Abstract:

The crises of biodiversity loss, climate change and food security are challenges faced by the conservation and agriculture sectors. We outline, via presentations from the Australasian Seed Science Conference, how seed science is addressing these challenges. Research is focused on practical solutions for seed bank management, seed use and biodiversity conservation. Emerging trends include understanding the role of seed microbiota on plant performance and the roles of seeds in society and culture.

Abstract:

Indigenous seeds are grown by the farmers over the years with a strong influence from local natural factors. Such seeds have a higher level of intrapopulation variations and the capacity of buffering the adverse factors. Understanding indigenous seeds along with their diversity are useful to diversify their uses, to assess conservation status, to know the factors making farming areas red zone, and to improve their performance. Selection is the simplest and most common method for the improvement of crop varieties. The variation must be created and maintained to impose selection. Different types

Abstract:

Quality seed is the basic input for agriculture. However, few principles of quality seed production are sometimes overlooked by the seed growers. This can result in poor quality of seed produce. Seed growers are expected to follow all the basic principles which are meant for the quality seed production. Agricultural scientists have made several recommendations for each step after the years of research. Following these recommendations, farmers and other seed growers can be benefitted in terms of both increased production of quality seeds and profitable market price of the produce.

The subject of little historical research, the seed distribution project is usually viewed as a failure of the scientific agricultural establishment, or as vote mongering by Congress, and its demise as the simple culmination of Progressive Era reform.

The hybrid seed production, based on phenotypic knowledge of the plants, marks the first phase of the industrialization of seed and the genetically modified seed, based on genotypic knowledge of the plants, marks the beginning of another phase in th

On a forested 1600-year-old archaeological site, five different land-use intensities were mapped and sampled.

Abstract:

Seed quality will remain the centerpiece of successful agricultural programs in the year 2000. As new changes occur in agriculture driven by advancements in biotechnology, seed enhancement technologies, a more diverse seed user clientele, and communication technologies, successful seed companies will require a knowledgeable and informed workforce to assure high seed quality. A new approach to seed technology training is professed that relies on the establishment of a three-institution consortium to achieve this objective. Advantages of the consortium are identified that emphasize the unique st

Seed is the basic unit of production in agriculture. Without seed the existence of living being in earth is not possible. These seed if viable, under favourable condition grown into green plants. These green plants are the only producer of the planet on which all creatures depend upon. So, seeds are the major element for production, from which other consumers can survive. So, for the human survival we need high yield from optimum input. Seeds are major factor in which yield mostly depend upon. Hence selection of seed must be done with proper study.

Agriculture depends on the ability of seeds to survive until the next planting season under ambient conditions that may be averse to seed quality even when the seed is in a quiescent state. Seed priming invigorates seeds, but the impact on the longevity of seeds has limited its adoption. This study investigated the effect of the storage of primed rice seed on seed viability, vigor, and longevity. Three seed priming methods were employed on the rice cultivar New Rice for Africa (NERICA 4) seeds. Subsequently, the seeds were stored for 120 days at 25 °C and 65% relative humidity, simulating the

Seed classification can provide additional knowledge about quality production, seed quality control and impurity identification. The process of categorising seeds has been traditionally done based on characteristics like colour, shape and texture. Generall
