THE EFFECT OF TRAUMA AND METHODS OF THRESHING WHEAT SEEDS ON THEIR BIOLOGICAL AND YIELD PROPERTIES

Аннотация

Experimental materials on the characteristics of the germination of injured wheat seeds are presented. It was shown that seeds with injuries of the embryo possess the lowest sowing qualities. Threshing with a combine harvester, the working elements of the beating apparatus of which are coated with non-metallic materials, reduces crushing and trauma of grain, helps to preserve the sowing qualities of seeds and increases their yield properties.
