In this study we tested purity of alfalfa seed after each processing stage required by regulations on agricultural plants quality. Unprocessed seed come from production field with extremely high content of impurities (plant parts, pods, and weeds). After each processing stage (cleaning, magnet machine) we tested purity of seed and we analysed structure of impurities. We also tested influence of use Fe powder with water and oil and Fe powder with only water in process of cleaning Cuscuta spp. from alfalfa seed. Testing was done on nine alfalfa seed lots, produced in the same field during the same year. Results of study show how much each processing stage improved purity of each alfalfa seed lot and with what combination of Fe powder, water and oil we got the seed without Cuscuta spp.
