In this study we analysed the influence of meteorological conditions and applied agrotechinque on the seed production and its quality. Large differences in meteorological conditions influenced seed production in the period of 2006. and 2007. During this time, we made the competent control of seed production of maize and soybean, on the areas of PKB Corporation. The control was administered after the valid Regulations of the seed production control ('Službeni glasnik RS' # 60/06). The quality control and seed improvement have been done in the certified laboratories. The analyzed area of seed maize in 2006 was 478 ha extended, and in 2007 it was 569 ha. The average realized processed seed yield was 26.7% higher in year 2006 comparing to 2007. Soybean planted analyzed area was 309 ha large in 2006 and 173 ha in 2007. In year 2007 there has been a bit higher production of the processed seed for 3.4%. There was no significant difference in the average yield of the processed seed. .
