A Film coating, a layer of thin film applied to the seed typically less than 10% of the mass of the original seed. Encrustment, where the applied material is typically 100%–500% of the original seed mass, but the shape is still discernible. Pellet, where the applied material is so thick that the seed's original shape is not discernible.
Seed enhancement is a range of treatments of seeds that improves their performance after harvesting and conditioned, but before they are sown. They include priming, steeping, hardening, pregermination, pelleting, encrusting, film-coating, tagging and others, but excludes treatments for control of seed born pathogens .
