Additionally, the research studied the experience and developments of leading scien-tists in the field of microwave radiation. Analysis of the available sources provided information on the positive effect of microwave radiation in the processing of crops. The use of microwaves on plants during drying destroys pathogens and bacteria, in particular, microwave processing of red lentils reduces grey mould damage by up to 30%. Positive results are also noted in the microwave processing of other crops, providing an increase in germination capacity of up to 7% and yield growth of up to 6%. The microwave plant market in Russia is represented mainly by dryers, and the use of microwaves on plants combining several functions of drying, disinfection, and pre-sowing stimulation.}, type={Article}, title={Prospects for the use of microwave energy in grain crop seeding}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/119795/8%20Kipriyanov%20828.pdf}, doi={10.24425/jwld.2021.137098}, keywords={disinfection, microwave drying, microwave energy, microwave use on plants, pre-sowing treatment}, }
