Why should preserve some seeds in acid before selling to farmers?..

Answer / Anugya Kumari

Preserving seeds in acid is a method used for seed treatment. This process helps kill harmful bacteria, fungi, and pests that may be present on the seeds. By treating seeds with acid, such as sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid, it increases their viability and resistance to unfavorable conditions during planting. This is important for farmers because it ensures better germination rates and healthier crop growth.
