Book Description
Excerpt from Seed Treatments for the Control of Certain Diseases of Wheat, Oats, and Barley As the literature on the effectiveness of seed treatments is very voluminous, only a few references on the history of such treatments and some of the more recent articles that have a close bearing on the experiments reported will be given. The use of preventive seed treatments may have started in England. It is said that in about 1760 a shipload of wheat sank at Bristol and that the wheat was salvaged after having been in the sea water. As the germination still was satisfactory, the whole cargo was sold and much of it was sown by farmers thruout that area. At har vest time much of the wheat in England was smutty, but that grown from the seed which had been soaked in sea water apparently was free from smut. From this accidental discovery, the brining method was developed. This method, however, has not proved entirely satisfactory.
