Going Back in Seed Vigor and Plant Renewal
The author argues against a mystical process of going back in crop varieties. Wheat and barley renew seeds via field and seed inspection, while hybrid corn must renew annually. Wheat seed could be enhanced by hybridization at high cost but would revert. oats may require renewal due to false wild oats. Scotland imports Scotsmen whiskey and seed potatoes to England, while disease buildup drives seed imports. potato tubers, however, are not seed.
