Course Goal / Objective

This course is prepared for use by studens of field crops department during the process of forage seed production. It is intended as a practical guide to cover some of the basic principles of production of quality forage seeds

Course Content

The scope of course can be outlined in three phases: Seed multiplication practices including production systems, site selection, matching the forage to the site, the type of forage plant, crop establishment, crop management, and seed harvesting. Post-harvest seed conditioning. This involves threshing, winnowing, drying, cleaning, packaging and storage. Seed quality control concepts with particular reference to assurance, testing, sampling, moisture content determination, purity analysis, germination testing, viability testing
