Anant Kumar, Rashmee Yadav, Ankur Jha, Indrapal Singh, and Brij Vikas

Quality of seed is very important to increase the production. It is necessary to maintain the varietal purity of seed, and control the seed borne disease for the production of high-quality seed. Therefore, the major objective of this paddy seed production technique manual is to improve the knowledge to farmers about technical and management activities, including increment in production of quality seed of paddy. Seed borne infestation of insects and diseases pose devastating consequences to crop production. The concept of seed treatment is the use and application of biological and chemical agents that basically can control or contain primary soil and seed borne infestation. This helps to improve crop safety which in turn leads to good establishment of healthy and vigorous plants which results in better yields. KVK, Auraiya conducted an on-farm trial assesses the seed treatment on the grain yield of paddy. The result slowed that seed treatment with 2 g carbendazim & 0.2 g streptomycin per kg gave highest yield 63.26 Q/ha as compared to seed treatment with only streptomycin 0.2 g/kg seed and with only 2 g carbendazim/kg seed.
