Agricultural and seed laboratories measure seed characteristics for the purposes of improving best known agricultural practices. When designing a lab for this kind of research, you will need appropriate casework and workbenches to make sure organization is maintained and experiments can be handled accurately. Check out this deck we put together to learn more about agricultural and seed lab design. Follow OnePointe Solutions for all your laboratory needs.
