Planting high quality seed is the basis by which agriculture profit is gained. Commercially sold every seed lot has an assessment of seed quality which has a requirement of germinating seeds under different environmental conditions. Typically seed companies and commercial seed testing laboratories evaluate large number of seed lots each year, in the range of thousands. Seed testing, is currently done by humans and is slow and error prone. This research aims at creating seed analysis that will automate seed quality assessment. For this purpose, it is a need to an objective system which will provide consistent and correct results. After referring to different papers and keeping in mind the requirements, the system is designed which will measure the seedling size and growth rate using machine vision.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
