Sugar beet, a biennial industrial agricultural crop, is used for the production of ethanol, biofuels, sugar and contains up to 70% sucrose. It is difficult to obtain seeds, the collection of which takes place in the second year of cultivation of root crops. The possibility of accelerating seed activation, increasing germination by methods of pre-sowing treatment of dry seeds: laser pulsed radiation and ecoperoxide solutions was studied. The first test indicating the beginning of seed awakening (
