Changes in physical properties of some proprietary safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) cultivars after film coating application

Safflower is one of the economically important oil plants. There are some studies on safflower, but none its seed properties. This study was carried out in Biosystem Engineering laboratories Faculty Agriculture Bingöl University 2021. The seeds four different proprietary safflower cultivars were randomly sampled, and their physical properties examined under two separate groups, that is, control film-coated. film coating material applied a single layer, effects size compared between groups. dose should be at level will not adversely affect germination emergence performance seed. As result study, it found long oval shape. results help researchers carry mechanization breeding safflower. Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res. 58(2), 129-132, 2023
