Method used to increase the number of good plants in a seed lot.  A seed sample is divided into several fractions that may vary in quality.

By evaluating the germination results of each fraction, we calculate the effect of removing one or more fractions on the percentage of useable transplants of the remaining fractions.

Using this information, the seed lot can be substantially improved on both germination an vigour.
