Soil seedbed engineering and its impact on germination and establishment in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) as affected by seed-soil contact

Seed-soil contact plays an essential role in the process of germination as seeds absorb water through direct contact with the moist soil aggregates that surround them. Factors influencing seed-soil contact can be considered as those pertaining to soil physical properties (e.g. texture, bulk density,...
