Storage of soybean seeds: Packaging and modified atmosphere technology

Abstract: The characteristics of materials used in packages for seed storage may have a negative influence in the deterioration process, causing future problems during the period of storage and in emergence in the field. In this study, the objective was to evaluate the physiological quality of soybean seeds, stored in different packages with and without the addition of CO2 (modified atmosphere), for different periods of storage and in uncontrolled environmental conditions. In order to carry out the experiment, a complet… Show more

“…Therefore, when the grain is stored in polypropylene bags, fluctuation in moisture content is expected. In this study, the relative humidity in intergranular spaces in all hermetic containers remained stable during the storage period, while fluctuations were recorded in polypropylene bags, which corroborates with previous studies (Ng 'ang'a et al, 2016;Lane and Woloshuk, 2017;Capilheira et al, 2019). The polyethylene drum presented the lowest intergranular relative humidity thorough the experiment, which is somehow surprising.…”

“…The decrease in the percentage of water content over the months of storage can be attributed to the hygroscopicity of the seed, that is, it has the property of absorbing or transferring water to the surrounding air (Oliveira et al, 2014;Costa et al, 2015). Humidity variations inside the packagings during storage cause variations in the water content of seeds during this period, since the seed has hygroscopic tissues (Capilheira et al, 2019).…”

“…VI is a comprehensive re ection of seedling biomass and germination speed, which is substantially affected by seed degradation. For seeds in envelope packaging, conditions including high temperature, an accumulation of microorganisms, and high RH resulting in increased seed moisture may reduce the ability of seeds to germinate (Capilheira et al, 2019;Jian et al, 2019;Modi and Bornman, 2004). Consequently, we found that VI declined most drastically over longer storage durations in deeper locations.…”

“…In turn, the factors that affect the GR also affected the GI. For instance, a high RH environment causes an increase in seed moisture, which aggravates seed degradation and inactivation (Capilheira et al, 2019), which in turn reduces GR.…”
