Storage methods for peanut seeds
Sep 12,2023
One is to fully dry the seeds before storage to reduce their moisture content to below 8%. According to experiments, when the seed moisture content is below 8%, storage is very safe, and even at -25 ℃, it does not affect the germination ability. When the moisture content of the seed is higher than 10%, the respiratory function is enhanced, releasing a large amount of heat energy, which is easy to cause the seed to rot, spoil, and infest.
The second is to improve the purity of seeds, remove impurities and immature fruits, release a large amount of heat energy, which can easily cause seeds to rot, deteriorate, and become infested.
The third is to strictly disinfect and sterilize the storage area, prevent moisture, and maintain ventilation and dryness in the warehouse.
The fourth is to use woven bags and jute bags as storage tools, and avoid using airtight plastic bags for storage. Storing seeds in plastic bags can easily cause lack of air circulation, leading to anaerobic respiration and embryo poisoning. At the same time, the moisture and heat generated by respiration are not easily dissipated, causing the seeds to heat and mold.
Fifth, peanuts cannot be stored in the same warehouse as pesticides and fertilizers. Many pesticides and fertilizers have certain volatility and corrosiveness, which can damage the cells and embryos of seeds.
Six is to pay attention to frequent inspections during storage to see if the seeds are affected by moisture, pests, or rodents, as well as if the germination potential and germination rate have decreased. If problems are found, they should be dealt with in a timely manner to ensure the safe storage of peanut seeds.
