✦ Synopsis

Cereal seeds of various varieties which had been fumigated a t one of four moisture contents were kept for 6 years. The germination capacity of the samples was determined initially and again after 6 months, 3 years and 6 years of storage. At the lowest moisture contents good survival of fumigated and of unfumigated seed was noted, but varietal differences appeared which had not been found during the earlier stages of the tests. Rye remained viable for 3 years when stored dry, but lost its viability after that period.
