Bean Seed Treatment: a simple approach without specific laboratory equipment
Organic agriculture uses organic seeds or untreated conventional seeds when no alternative exists. In both ways, seeds can carry diseases and are better treated using a method which • is acceptable for organic farming, • has a good success rate at disinfecting the seeds and • does not significantly reduce the germination rate. Prior to sowing your beans, this simple method can reduce or even remove seed infections. For this you will need: a container, hot water (55°C), cold water and a thermometer.
