Prologue on seeds.
In the introduction page, the topic of the site - cumulative-dissipative processes - was briefly presented.
In this prologue on seeds, some points will be presented that I want to highlight, among those that will then be treated in detail in three specific itineraries.
a - Application in agriculture.
b - How to increase yields.
c - Sowing calendars.
d - In the open field; in the greenhouse.
e - Efficiency of the cumulative-dissipative cycle in seeds.

Application in agriculture.
Understanding the ways and times in which cumulative-dissipative processes take place has allowed me to develop a procedure, which I intend to be in the public domain, to improve the germination of seeds, during the sowing phase.
As already mentioned, the procedure allows to increase the yields in the order of 30 to 50 percent (all other variables being equal), and to favor the root system, which goes deeper, so useful in case of drought.
How the processes are activated.
Cumulative-dissipative processes take place in seeds in such peculiar ways, that it is as if they had their own signature.
As I saw in “experiment A” (Sunflower seeds in motion with respect to the surrounding matter) and in “experiment E” (Seeds stationary with respect to the surrounding matter, but in motion with respect to the Moon), these processes are activated:
(1) by angular movement with respect to other matter;
(2) and by heat exchanges, first lent, when said movement increases (cumulative phase), and then returned, when said movement decreases (dissipative phase).
All this appears to occur only during brief episodes of interaction, when the motion is at critical angular velocities.
I deduced this from the fact that the phenomena are more evident when the angular motion with respect to other matter persists for a long time at specific values of angular velocity.
To confirm what is written here, further research is necessary, with the use of adequate instrumentation, which I lack.

How to increase yields.
From what I have been able to understand so far, seeds manage their germination capacity, in order to maintain it for a long time, thanks to cumulative-dissipative processes.
Usually, these processes take place with a reduced efficiency, because they are left to chance. A procedure, which seems paradoxical, allows to make them more efficient.
In fact, it is as if a little increase in entropy, during the cumulative phase, favors a greater reduction, during the subsequent dissipative phase.
In truth, it is the “force d” (force due to the angular movement with respect to other matter) that changes the logic to be used in this case.

Sowing calendars.
In presenting the sowing procedure, intended to improve the germination capacity of seeds, I use calendars, where it appears when cumulative and dissipative processes can be underway in the seeds, when they are stationary with respect to the Earth.
In this site, in order to make it easier to read, in my opinion, the sowing calendars, given for each month of the normal calendar, indicate the hourly angular velocity of the Moon, in its rotation around the Earth, defined in 86,400 deltins, and performed in a sidereal month, and not the angular velocity of the seeds with respect to the Moon.
Consequently, the cumulative phases take place when said movement is indicated as decreasing (periods b-c; d-a), while the dissipative phases take place when said movement is indicated as increasing (a-b; c-d).

In the open field; in a greenhouse.
All the experiments on seeds, published on this site, were carried out in the open field, not in a greenhouse.
However, in order to respect the cycle times, the procedure is best performed where the timing of the water supply can be managed, as can take place in a greenhouse, rather than being dependent on the vagaries of the weather.
Soil depletion.
In order to avoid soil depletion, the procedure also requires a suitable rotation of crops, alternating improving species, preparatory species and depleting species.
This would also allow for lower costs in terms of plant protection products and fertilizers. In this regard, the use of fertilizers of fossil origin should be avoided, not only because they contain only a part of those necessary, but also because they are harmful to quality and the environment (especially in the long term due to the greenhouse effect).

Efficiency of the cumulative-dissipative cycle in seeds.
The cumulative-dissipative cycle, thanks to which seeds maintain their ability to germinate, varies in efficiency for several reasons, including the declination of the Moon with respect to the equator, which can range from just over 14 degrees up to 28.5 degrees, over the course of 18.6 years.
The efficiency of the cycle changes - examples.
1.1.5 - Harvest result in a year of lean times (2005).
1.1.6 - Harvest result in a year of abundance (2015).
This efficiency also depends on the fact that cumulative-dissipative processes take place only at critical angular velocities with respect to other matter, as well as on the amount of heat exchange, in a cumulative sense when said velocity is increasing, and in a dissipative sense when said velocity is decreasing.
Seven lean years.
When the variation of the declination of the Moon with respect to the equator exceeds 26 degrees, during seven years within the cycle, the efficiency of the cumulative-dissipative processes is reduced.
In fact, due to the fact that the processes occur only at critical angular velocities, the more the declination of the Moon varies per unit of time, with respect to the Earth's equator, the shorter the episodes during which the cumulative-dissipative processes can take place, the lower their efficiency.
When, in the cumulative phase, said episodes are short, and at the same time the temperature is low, the efficiency of the cycle is compromised, as some natural food crises, i.e. those not due to wars, testify.
A combination that has caused the most serious famines throughout history.
