Abstract
Seed treatment, as defined by the Federal Seed Act, means "...seed given an application of a substance or subjected to a process designed to reduce or control, repel disease organisms, insects, or other pests which attack seeds or seedlings growing therefrom." A fungicide seed treatment is the application of a fungicide to the seed to protect it from rot or decay caused by disease-causing microorganisms 1n the soil, on the seed, or in the seed.
