ABSTRACT It is known to coat seeds with various types of coatings to assist in plant development from the seed. It has been suggested to coat seeds with absorbent coatings which contain bacteria or agricultural chemicals. The utility of such processes is limited by the compatibility of the substance carried in the absorbent coating and the adhesive used to bind the coating to the seed, or the processing conditions to obtain proper adhesion between the absorbent carrier and the seed. The present invention seeks to overcome these drawbacks by providing a process for preparing coated seeds comprising mixing seeds with a biologically inert water soluble adhesive, feeding into the mixture a finely divided inert absorbent powder being of a particle size to pass a 150 mesh B.S.S. in which the absorbency is at least partially satisfied by pretreatment with water or a non aqueous liquid and forming on the said seeds a coating of powder bonded by the adhesive and drying the coated seeds to restore the powder to a liquid content of less than 0.5% by weight of coating.
