The article examines the nature of the influence of the electromagnetic field of low-frequency radiation on the germination and germination energy of seeds of various varieties of spring wheat and barley. It is shown that as a result of the influence of low-frequency electromagnetic field in spring wheat seeds, laboratory and field germination of seeds increases. Moreover, the level of stimulation depends on the duration of seed irradiation. The maximum growth of germination is observed at presowing treatment during 10-30 minutes. Further increase of exposure time leads to a decrease in germination. In barley, the effect of magnetic field differs from the nature of the effect on wheat seeds. At irradiation from 10 to 30 min germination decreases, at longer irradiation there is a tendency to its increase. Using a mathematical model linking the water content in seed cells, their swellability in water and irradiation time showed a correlation between the water content in the seed and the effect of EMF exposure on seed germination.
