We recommend that you start with small controls until you master the technique. The process is simple, but requires experience until you know just the right amounts. The solid ingredients should be applied very thin, and very little by little, not to form lumps or to create pellets without seeds inside.

The liquid components are applied through a pulverizer as thin as possible, which does not produce drops. Minimum amounts of liquid are applied between material and material to improve the adhesion of the dust on the balls. Some materials need more binders than others because they can be more stickers.

If the balls stick together you can separate them with your hands very carefully. A good pelletization should not need mechanical separation.

If you have doubts, we can offer trainings.

Powerful seeds (Semillas Poderosas) is a project that seeks to make accessible the knowledge around the organic seed pelletizing. And put light on both the type of ingredients that are used in the production methodology.

Then you have available the Plan of the social intervention of this agro-technological project , developed in the city of Rosario, Argentina, for the agro-ecological Orchard Park Huerta El Bosque. Where we work with a community making various training on low-cost seed pelletization.

This project is a summary of the 12 days of work carried out during the laboratory of Citizen Innovation LABICAR, and we intend that it can serve as basis for other projects of social intervention on empowerment with the pelletizing or curing of seeds for territories of Latin America.
