ABSTRACT
The seed storage experiment was conducted during 2008 and 2009 to assess the influence of Imidacloprid 70 ws on the quality of sunflower seeds during storage. The experiment consisting of four factors such as Seed storage, Varieties , Packing’s and Chemicals. The results revealed that sunflower seeds treated with imidacloprid 70 ws @ 5 g/ kg of seed and packed in cloth bag retained germination up to 14 months and polythene bag was 18 months only. Among the varieties NSP-92-1(E) has good storability as compared to KBSH-1 without deleterious effect on seed quality.
