SEED TREATMENT SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND AGRICULTURAL COMPOSITIONS

Abstract: seed treatment systems with a mixing reservoir including a tank, a circulation mechanism positioned within the tank, and a controller coupled to the circulation mechanism, where the circulation mechanism includes a plurality of vanes configured to rotate about an axis within the tank, and where the controller is configured to mix seed treatment components within the tank in one or more mixing cycles by rotating the plurality of vanes within the tank, each mixing cycle including a first mixing operation in which the plurality of vanes rotate in a first direction about an axis for a first time period, and a second mixing operation in which the plurality of vanes rotate in a second direction about the axis opposite to the first direction for a second time period. methods of use of the disclosed systems, e.g., for treating plant seeds, and agricultural compositions produced thereby are also provided.
