This book provides a comprehensive introduction to seed priming--a simple and effective method to improve seed germination and crop performance. Seed priming involves treating seeds before sowing to enhance their growth potential, improve yield, and increase resistance to environmental stress.

The chapters cover a wide range of priming techniques, beginning with the basics of seed priming and moving into specific methods such as hydropriming (including the use of hydrogen-rich water), halopriming, osmopriming, and chemical priming. The book also explores biological methods like bacterial and fungal priming, as well as hormonal and nutrient-based treatments. Emerging approaches such as nano-priming, solid matrix priming, and the use of physical methods--including thermal, magnetic, ultrasonic, electrical, and light-based priming are discussed in detail.
