Seed testing:

• Proper seed sampling procedures

• What's in a germination test?

• Seed vigor and testing

• Seed purity and pure live seed

• Testing seeds for accelerated aging

• Using the relative vigor index

Harvesting damaged crops:

Drought-damaged crops:

• • • harvesting corn as hay

    • harvesting corn as silage or baleage

    • grazing or green-chopping corn

Rain-damaged crops:
