The idea behind seed pelleting is to take a seed that is comparatively light in density and oddly shaped and turn it into a seed with a pellet around it that makes that seed heavier, more uniform, and as perfectly round as possible. A planter will be able to plant that seed/pellet in the most accurate and precise way that is mechanically possible.
