Abstract: Seed treatment devices and methods of treating seeds are provided. One example seed treatment device includes a mixing chamber in which seeds and a treatment formulation are mixed when received therein, a body having an inner surface defining at least part of the mixing chamber, a rotor having an inner surface defining at least a lower portion of the mixing chamber and configured to rotate to thereby cause the seeds in a lower portion of the mixing chamber to flow upwards along the inner surface of the rotor and the inner surface of the body, and one or more baffles. Each baffle includes a first concave surface configured to redirect the seeds and the treatment formulation when the rotor rotates in a first direction and a second concave surface configured to redirect the seeds and the treatment formulation when the rotor rotates in a second direction opposite the first direction.

Abstract: Provided herein are processes for the preparation of treated seeds. Generally, the processes described herein include providing a single, solid one-piece body. The single, solid one-piece body has a selected mass and volume. The process further includes reducing the single, solid one-piece body, and contacting the seeds with the seed treatment component.
