A pre-sowing treatment of carrot seeds is a set of important technological operations. It includes separation, grinding and inlay. These methods make it possible to increase the resistance of seeds to stressful conditions and improve their sowing qualities. Inlay is an effective way of pre-sowing seeds, which consists in coating them with a special mixture including nutrients, growth regulators, fungicides and insecticides. This method allows you to protect seeds from diseases and pests, and also provides them with the necessary elements for active germination and development. However, the inlay process requires specialized equipment and materials, which increases the cost of seeds. It is also necessary to follow the technology and control the quality to ensure uniform seed coverage and the effectiveness of protective components. The effectiveness of pre-sowing seed treatment is determined by the characteristics of the variety and the quality of the initial seed material. Coating seeds with a biological growth stimulant during inlay accelerates their germination under favorable conditions. The use of high-quality seeds reduces production costs, since such seeds usually yield a higher yield and are less susceptible to diseases. Inlay, used in the process of pre-sowing seed treatment, can improve their sowing qualities. Seed calibration followed by inlay makes it possible to obtain higher-quality and healthier seeds that meet the requirements of the professional market. The advantage of pre-sowing preparation of table carrot seeds is that it allows you to prepare seeds for sale on the professional market. By improving the sowing qualities of seeds, specialists can improve the quality of their products, as this contributes to the cultivation of healthier and more productive plants.
Key words: inlay, germination, germination energy, sowing qualities, seeds, carrots.
