Last Updated: 2024/11/22, Recently, a biological seed coating agent which can not only improve the resistance of seeds to diseases and insect pests and greatly increase the yield of crops, but also produce no toxicity and pollution to human and livestock and the environment, has been successfully created and popularized in Zhejiang Province. Seed coating is widely popularized in China in recent years.

Recently, a biological seed coating agent which can not only improve the resistance of seeds to diseases and insect pests and greatly increase the yield of crops, but also produce no toxicity and pollution to human and livestock and the environment, has been successfully created and popularized in Zhejiang Province.

"seed coating" is a modern agricultural technology widely popularized in China in recent years, which means that the fertilizers and pesticides needed for seed development are wrapped in the surface layer and solidified into a film before seed germination, as if wearing a coat for the seed. As the previous seed coating agents are generally highly toxic, improper use, on the one hand, will reduce the germination rate of seeds, on the other hand, toxic residues in the seeds pose a potential threat to human and animal lives and the environment. In recent years, Shanghai and other big cities have made regulations against the use of highly toxic seed coating agents on rape, melons, fruits and vegetable seeds to ensure the safety of the "vegetable basket".

The biological seed coating agent was developed by the staff of the seed research and management department of Zhejiang Province after 14 years of hard work. This new type of seed coating agent takes bioactive bacteria as the effective ingredient, and has no drug harm to crops, no toxicity to human beings and animals, and no pollution to the environment. It can be widely used in seed coating of rice, corn, rape, wheat, watermelon, cotton, leafy vegetables, beans and other crops. Experts agree that the biological seed coating agent is the first in China and has reached the leading level in the world. At present, this technology has obtained the national patent.
