Popis: This article deals with one of the most pressing problems at present - reducing seed germination loss during storage in grain bins. The quality of the grain determines the germination rate of the seed and its maturity. However, anyone involved in agriculture can say with certainty that seed treatment before planting - “seed disinfection” - is just as important. Seed disinfection is a targeted procedure that aims to protect the seed economically and ecologically. Special preparations (pesticides) and their combinations are used for this purpose. The equipment used for seed disinfection in many plants does not always meet modern agrotechnical requirements of treatment quality, consequently it is necessary to develop technology and design of technical means with justification of its design and technological parameters. During the work, experimental methods such as simulation, observation, experiment were used. On the basis of this, the technological scheme and design of the unit for disinfection of grain in the flow when putting in storage was obtained and the optimal parameters of the proposed device were determined.
