Abstract :
The generator built was utilized for experimental researches on the influence of a low-energy electromagnetic field of EHF band on wheat seeds which were irradiated at a frequency of 38.05 GHz. The sowing qualities of the seeds were determined. The seeds of this culture were treated one day prior to sowing and were sown in allotments. The results of the carried out experiments are submitted here. The increase of germination was 8-11 %, the survival rate increased by 5-9 %, and the crop increased by 23-36 %
