Seed is an basic tool of agriculture. Agronomically any plant part which is used to regenerate the whole plant is called seed, botanically seed having living embryo for germination, endosperm for reserve food materials and seed coat for protective means. The success of crop production depends on the quality of seeds used for sowing or planting. Keeping in mind, the importance of seeds, ¿Crop Improvement-I (Kharif Crops)¿ is published to provide the general information about different seed testing seed production techniques. The practical manual has been written in simple and lucid language under Indian context.
