Summary in the original language of the document
In this video, plant breeder and common bunt researcher Anders Borgen from Agrologica (DK) addresses effective methods of seed cleaning and seed treatment to minimise the spread of common bunt spores, which is useful for organic farmers.
He demonstrates the use of a seed brush to clean seeds with a machine he has modified himself for increased effectiveness. He also shows how to use vinegar as seed treatment within a mixer.
