where this is mentioned in the description.
For buckwheat, vigor is determined under laboratory conditions using germination methods in sand or filter paper rolls. The indicator is assessed through the percentage of seedlings that have emerged through the soil layer, their mass in grams per 100 units, and the morphological parameters of the seedlings, including stem and root length.
High vigor ensures uniform seedling emergence, resistance to adverse environmental conditions, and better competitiveness against weeds. Varieties with increased vigor contribute to the formation of a denser and more productive stand, passing through critical development stages more rapidly.
