Nomograph

Nomograph
    • Roberts (1972) developed formulae to describe the relationship between temperature, seed moisture content and period of viability.
    • From these relationships it was possible to construct a seed viability nomograph.
    • These nomographs are helpful in predicting the retention of seed viability in defined storage environment for a particular period or to determine combinations of temperature and moisture content which will ensure the retention of a desired level of seed viability for a specific period.
