EFFECT OF SEED DRESSING FUNGICIDES ON THE STORAGE AND VIABILITY OF SORGHUM SEEDS

Abstract

The now seed dressing fungicides Panoctine and Panoram were compared with other commonly used fungicides for their effect on sorghum seed viability during storage. Thiram 0.2 per cent, Vitavax 0.2 per cent, Panoram 0.4 per cent and Panoctine 0.4 per cent were found to keep the sorghum seeds viable to nine months of storage.
