The paper present data about the special cleaning, sorting and stimulating germination of spherical seeds. The investigation were fulfilled on the base of rape (Brassica napus L.) seeds. The seeds preparing machines used the electric field can to separate seeds according to the unit of mechanical and electrical features and improve this germination. For research we used the conveyer type electro separator with corona discharge field. During the research it was established that: the cleaning of the weed seeds could be fulfilled in conveyer type electric separator with the belt of the shaggy texture fabric; by the sorting of non conditional rape seeds it is possible to get 80% of seed corresponding the requirements of the standard; corona disharge field has positive influence on germination dynamics of treated seeds; density function of the seeds treated with corona disharge field is described by lognormal distribution and that of untreated seeds–by normal distribution.
