Abstract
Wighed seeds of four varieties of Coffea arabica L. were subjected to some seed advancement treatments. The treatments resulted in earlier germination but did not increase the final germination percentage. It is concluded that the treatment elicited physiological activity which resulted in rapid seed germination but did not significantly influence seed viability
