Achievements and limitations of seed treatments
Abstract
In spite of impressive new developments in the field of crop protection over the last three decades, seed treatment probably remains the cheapest and simplest method of controlling certain pests and diseases of major crop plants. The overall benefits which result are measured in millions of tons of extra grain harvested each year, in addition to large gains in other feed crops as well as cotton.
