Ear bed method
Este es el contexto. Muchas gracias de antemano.
Ear-bed method
This organic breeding method was developed especially for cereals, but it may also be used for other crops. An ear bed is a seedbed in which the grains from one ear are sown in the same sequence in which they were arranged in the ear. Thus the plants in the seedbed (ear-bed) reflect the quality of the original ear. The plants' vigour, nutritional quality, resistance, production etc. will differ depending on whether the plants are grown from grains from the middle, upper or lower part of the ear. To induce additional variation, the plants originating from the upper part of the ear are selected in one year and plants from the lower part in the next year. The ear-bed method may also be used in the early stages of variety development. In this case, plants are not selected from the different ends of the ear but from the middle (Schmidt, 1994).

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

método almácigo-espiga
Método almácigo-espiga. Es un método desarrollado por los agricultores
biodinámicos. Es una versión de la selección por pedigree aún más potente ya
que en este caso no sólo se conocen los progenitores, sino que se siembran
las semillas en un orden determinado dependiendo de su posición en la espiga
o en el fruto, permitiendo una valoración visual rápida del potencial productivo
de la planta y a la vez una selección integradora de la variabilidad.
