STUDY RESULTS OF SEED DRESSING UNIT

Abstract

The materials of the article are devoted to an urgent problem which is reducing the loss of seed germination during storage in granaries. Seed dressing is the primary stage in the formation of the optimal phytopathological state of crops, which determines the further development of diseases. The equipment used by complanies for seed dressing does not always meet modern agrotechnical requirements, therefore, it is necessary to conduct research to increase the quality of seed dressing with the proposed unit, substantiating its design and technological parameters. During the implementation of the work, experimental methods were used, such as modeling, observation, experiment. As a result, a process flow diagram and a design of a unit for a grain flow disinfecting during storage were obtained and the optimal parameters of the proposed device were determined.
