“…Paraginski et al [ 36 ] who studied corn seeds stored for twelve months, observed lower decreases in the germination percentage of seeds stored at 5°C and 15°C than in that of seeds stored at 25°C and 35°C. Bessa et al [ 37 ] stored crambe seeds and obtained better germination rates in PET packaging, compared to laminated and high density polyethylene packaging in an air-conditioned environment at 10°C and in a non-conditioned environment [ 38 ]. Seed deterioration is a natural process and seeds are prone to losing vigor more quickly when they are stored in environments with elevated temperatures than in refrigerated environments.…”

Different regions have different environmental conditions, which may be unfavorable for the preservation of the quality of stored soybean seeds over time. Thus, it is necessary to adopt specific technologies to control the storage environment conditions. Big raffia bags are widely used for the storage of soybean seeds, however these consist of a porous, permeable material that allows the exchange of gases between the packaging and the storage environment. In an effort to find a solution to this problem, in this study we evaluated low cost big bag coating alternatives, in order to minimize the effects of temperature and intergranular humidity on stored seeds. Thus, the aim of this work was to evaluate the quality of soybean cultivars subjected to different temperature and storage duration conditions and stored in raffia bags with or without internal coating. We used a completely randomized, three-factor (10 × 6 × 5) experimental design. We assessed 10 soybean cultivars, six storage environments, and five evaluation periods. Our results showed that seeds of the M-SOY 8866, M7110 IPRO, CD 2737 RR, and BMX DESAFIO 8473 RSF soybean cultivars preserved their physiological quality better in different storage environments. The storage duration had a cumulative effect on the negative factors that favor the deterioration of the quality of the stored seeds. The storage temperature was the main factor that affected the physiological quality of the stored seeds. The use of coated packaging was beneficial in preserving the physiological quality of stored soybean seeds; however, its effect was greater at ambient temperature than in a cold environment. The best storage environment for the preservation of the quality of the seeds was characterized by 10°C temperature conditions and the use of coated packaging, while the worst storage environment was characterized by ambient temperature conditions without the use of coated packaging. Thus, it was concluded that the use of coatings in raffia big bags can be an alternative for maintaining the quality of seeds of different soybean cultivars during storage in seed processing units.

“…Widely used in quality control programs in the industry, Statistical Process Control (SPC), through control chart graphics, allows the identification of common and special causes of variation within the production process (Montgomery, 2009). In agribusiness, its use is not yet common, but the efficiency of SPC has already been proven in mechanized processes in cotton (Silva et al, 2007), tomato (Voltarelli et al, 2015), in the application of pesticides crops in coffee (Silva et al, 2016), peanut sowing (Zerbato et al, 2017 and monitoring of soybean seed quality (Alcântara et al, 2018).…”

Soybean is a crop of great economic relevance in the world, with seed production being one of the most important sectors of its agro-industrial complex. Processing is one of the final stages of the seeds production process, it aims to remove impurities, select seeds by shape, size and density and pack properly. Monitoring and quality control at different stages of the process ensures that seeds meet storage and market standards. The aim of this study was to evaluate the different stages of processing in the physical and physiological performance of three cultivars of soybean seeds using statistical process control tools. The work was carried out at the seed processing unit with the cultivars M8644 IPRO, M8349 IPRO and M8808 IPRO, with sampling at eight points throughout the process. Water content, physical purity, germination, first count, accelerated aging, tetrazolium (vigor and viability), mechanical damage and electrical conductivity were evaluated. During the process, mean and amplitude control charts were used for each test. The use of control charts made it possible to monitor the process of soybean seed processing, pointing out the methodology as a tool to determine existing problems, to promote continuous improvement in the performance of seed processing.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito das etapas do processo de produção sobre a qualidade fisiológica de sementes de amendoim por meio do Controle Estatístico de Processo. As amostragens foram realizadas durante as etapas de arranquio das plantas, recolhimento, transporte, secagem, armazenamento (dois, quatro e seis meses), além das seguintes etapas de beneficiamento: trilha mecânica, classificação por tamanho, separação por densidade e coloração, e tratamento químico. Para a avaliação da qualidade realizaram-se procedimentos de rotina dos laboratórios de controle de qualidade de produtoras de sementes: teor de água, germinação, primeira contagem, emergência de plântulas, condutividade elétrica, envelhecimento acelerado e tetrazólio. Após o arranquio, e nas fases de cura e armazenamento, houve redução na qualidade das sementes, porém, com o início do beneficiamento e nas etapas seguintes houve uma melhora nos atributos gerais do lote, devido a padronização das sementes, elevando o seu desempenho. No envelhecimento acelerado, houve queda de vigor ao longo do processamento, devido a deterioração natural das sementes desde a fase de maturidade fisiológica. Dessa forma, o Controle Estatístico de Processo se mostra eficaz no monitoramento do beneficiamento de sementes de amendoim, possibilitando a identificação de variações e tomada de decisão durante o processamento.
