Seed Treatment Studies on Sorghum in Texas1

J. R. Quinby, Robert B. Stewart and G. M. Watkins2

Synopsis: The most effective treatments increased emergence about 10%, but the least effective did not increase it at all. Organic protectants were more effective than mercurial. The protection increased as seed aged, but seed more than 2 years old did not emerge well enough to be used for planting.
