Summary: With seed quality parameters (seed health, germination, physical and other seed characteristics) influence of ecological factors (climatic conditions and type of soil) and some of menagement practices (fertilization, using of photodegradable plastics sheets, disease, insects and weed control, different planting practices, time of harvesting, drying and seed conditioning, storability) on seed quality of different arable field Crops are estimated.

Keywords: seed quality, management practices, harvesting, drying and conditioning, field crops

Research goals: With well known seed quality parameters (seed health, germination, physical, chemical and other seed characteristic) influence of ecological factors (climatic conditions and type of soil) and some of management practices (fertilization, using of photodegradable plastic sheets, disease, insect and weed control, brands selection, different planting practices, time of harvesting, drying and conditioning) on seed quality of different arable field crops (brands and genotypes) are estimated. New potential parameters, their stability and suitability for estimating seed quality production of new genotipes and brandsare investigated but in the sense of their genotipic constitution (like pod walls and seed coat tickness of leguminous crops). Alsovelocity of water movement thru pods and seeds are estimated. Allthis knowledge could be usefull in breeding effort for seedquality improvement. Results of this investigations could be and they arecontribution to better recognizing a proper agroecological conditions for crops seed production or rather, in determination of specific brand technology for quality seed production.
