The latest technologies for seed processing in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) call for the pelleting of seeds before insecticide application. The application of insecticide involves a new procedure that requires that the seed pelleting be dried before the insecticide is applied, which was not the case with the previous techniques. In the present study, the new procedure resulted in significant improvements in seed quality (germination energy and germinability) compared with the previously used methods. This was the case both in laboratory and field conditions, which conforms the superiority of the new method of insecticide application. We tested the new technique on both encrusted sugar beet seeds and pelleted one and the improvements in germinability and germination energy were significant. The methods section of the paper does not describe all the procedures used in the study due to them being protected by copyright.
