PROCESSING

It’s all about adding value to the seeds while transforming harvested seeds into marketable seeds. Seed processing encompasses various essential steps required to prepare the harvested seed for sale.

The primary steps involved in the processing cycle are as follows:

• Drying the seeds to attain safe moisture levels.
• Eliminating undesirable materials such as weed seeds, other crop seeds, damaged or deteriorated seeds, stones, chaff, straw, undersized and lightweight seeds.
• Ensuring uniform size grading and applying seed treatment methods to improve the overall seed quality.

The specific processing cycle may differ depending on the crop type.
