Embodiment Construction

[0140] Seed samples:

[0141] The quality and quality of the seed grading / sorting method according to the invention is demonstrated on seeds of different crop types such as sugar beet (B. vulgaris), onion (A. cepa), pepper (Capsicum) and sunflower (H. annuus) as follows : The evaluation of the capability of the method according to the invention is firstly based on the X-ray diagnosis carried out in the seed grading laboratory. The grades achieved with X-ray diagnosis are hereinafter referred to as "actual grades".

[0142] beet:

[0143] Beet seeds are subdivided into 6 divisions according to particle geometry and particle density. Each graduated seed particle is subjected to X-ray diagnostics and each seed particle is graded on the scale 1 to 6 above. Then grade 1 is called "empty", grade 2 is called "fullness", grade 3 is called "slightly shriveled", grade 4 is called "severely shriveled", grade 5 is called "twin" and grade 6 is called "twisted". Double Embryo (Bigerm)"....

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for classifying and / or for sorting seeds with the aid of terahertz time domain spectroscopy, to the use of terahertz time domain spectroscopy for classifying and / or sorting seeds, and to seeds classified and / or sorted with the aid of terahertz time domain spectroscopy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods for grading and sorting seeds. In particular, the invention relates to the application of radiation in the Terahertz range, for example, to a method for grading and / or sorting seeds by means of the application of Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. Background technique [0002] In agriculture farmers demand top quality seeds. In addition, top-quality seeds are characterized by high germination power, high drive and homogeneous rising behavior. In order to be able to provide top quality seeds, seed manufacturers must grade and sort their seeds so that top quality seeds can be separated and separated from poorer quality seeds. Typically, for grading and / or sorting of seeds, phenotypically easily determinable physical differences are utilized, eg, differences in size and / or differences in weight between seed kernels containing an embryo and seed kernels without an embryo. [0003] However, in order to provide se...
