Seed treatment plays a key role in seed germination and growth and development in the seedling stage, and can reduce the damage of pests and diseases to seeds; including seed dressing agents, seed mixing agents, seed soaking agents, etc. Seed dressing agents include: active substances, film-forming agents, other additives (dispersants, penetrants, rheological additives, antifreeze agents, defoaming agents, etc.), fillers, auxiliary ingredients (micro-fertilizers, plant growth regulators, water retention agents, oxygen supply agents, etc.), warning colors, etc.; seed mixing agents include: active substances, solvents, auxiliary materials (dyes, etc.); active substances are the main formula of seed dressing agents, and are the main part of the pest and disease control function. It includes fungicides, insecticides, nematicides, plant growth regulators and corresponding protective agents, trace elements, etc. Therefore, different agents need to be formulated in proportion during the preparation of seed dressing agents, while in the conventional processing process, different agents are added manually in proportion.
